Welcome to the 352nd AR2 A contest: 016_JupiterGravity
I'm VERY worried by this one. But it's different enough, to want to give it a try.
Sendai45 was renowned as a bridge builder, but this particular challenge has a bit of an obstacle in the way.
And, with Gravity set to 1000%, ten times higher than the usual G, things are likely to break under their own weight. I recall a challenge where 300% gravity was enough to have a bridge collapse under its own weight.
So, I feel like I'm missing a trick, because although the prices were halved, the winner spent just $48. Ooops, spoiler alert. Sorry, but I read through some of the challenge thread, to see how easy/impossible it was.
The thing is, this challenge has no "results" page that I can see, implying it could not be done. And the four pages of debate, left me wondering IF the thing was even possible. But Votart managed it with ease.
I haven't tried a solution myself yet, so this one feels like "flying blind" - I'm not sure if there was something in the "early development" AR2 versions that made this simple. Or if the version we now use, was already in action.
I have made the dillo a little smaller, and moved it, which makes the "flipper potential" a little more difficult. I'm guessing that was how it was done before.
But it also means, that might not work again. Particularly since there are no posted solutions to look at for inspiration.
Prices are halved. For everything. Seemed easier to leave it like that, than reset all the prices, and double the cash available.
Have fun, everyone. And... Good Luck!
AR2 Version 2.1.3 Beta is used, make sure you use the correct version.
