ARFC_A_218_LEM ('til Wed 4 Feb 19:00)

Welcome to A League contest 218 - LEM

Parachute failure - don't let the LEM sink.

This is running in 'the gap', just in case the B is out of reach.
It's here for fun - in fact I suspect the less techy the better!
Make it worth running - send me anything

Great, I was hoping somebody would have restart A league!

But.... This is almost a B contest, it's not so easy to solve...
(Also rename the level as ARFC_***.lvl, or nobody will manage playing it)

[decsystem10]

Well, it wasn't too difficult to solve naively - my first solution was 3000 worse than my next.
[In principle, its playable rather than instantly hard, so we'll see]

Sorry about the file. I didn't get time to proof the posting before now.
What's worse is that, after hours of mucking about, I find that the background slips between "edit" and "play".
Ho hum - its all better now.

Welcome back, Dec. Fun level. At first it looked pretty tough.

I'll start off with 9111+ L.

[Cresta]

Worst solution I can think about (1 minute tweaking) is 9400+L..
Start from here!

[decsystem10]

Piano, Cresta, piano!

Fun answers from 3000 up welcome. If it gets there, show me. Thanks.

[JHEP - love it! Have you <...text deleted...>?]

[jhep]

thanks, but erm have what ?

9500+ L
Still lots of room to tweak.

[decsystem10]

I have 3 totally different solutions so far.
I don't believe one of them could get away with it,
but the bonus points go to one actually using the crane - I confess I blew it up.

More wanted...

You want more, we give you more: 7500+L

I know it's not cheap, but i'm going for the bonuspoints

[decsystem10]

Never mind the price, look at the quality. Brilliant!

Thanks, just did what you must have had in your mind when you created the level.

[If you're reading this, I have a nice little B level running till friday that could use some more competition]

[decsystem10]

Interesting that. I actually put the crane there as very fragile and unuseable, but primarily as something in context intended to be a nuisance and get in the way eg of a bridge or slide.

First go, I took the quick way out and demolished it.

The whole 'crane' business sort of grew through the chat.
