<noname> (SPOILER) Congratulations, wowei! Anyway, I just tried to solve by hand again and successfully solved it. Of course, since I've seen the computer-generated solution, I probably have some memory about it, so it may not count.

One problem with this level is that there is a place where it branches into two branches, where one of them goes quite deep but is fruitless, while the other one is not so deep but leads to a solution. I gave up after deciding that the first branch is dead.

Another problem is that there are many repeating positions, and I have to mark down some of the positions which keep repeating. What's wrong when I first tried to solve this is that I marked down ALL intermediate positions. I should have just marked down SOME of the positions.

I think I'll divide this level into three stages:

1. Get out of the beginning positions;
2. Get bot 1 out;
3. Get all the bots into positions.

I think that stage 2 is the most difficult. Once I'm done with stage 2, it isn't too difficult to finish the level.

But I still don't find anything intelligent from this level. This level is still mostly trial and error for me, instead of having to think and plan.

<Kacper> Oops!I forgot!The title is supposed to be:

For got the #3 :)
 
Botkoban 2 Fri 21 Dec 2007 17:52
<wowei> (SPOILER) You can searate it into a few different phases, that are to accomplish. And that helps a lot. That is in opposite to botkoban #3, where i haven't found some discrete stages yet.
<wowei> (SPOILER) Added solution "Untitledonly ":
only a little longer than the original, which i guess is otimal.

Aaaand without computer-assistance! No brute-force or fuzzylogic did help here - only Blood Sweat and Tears ;)

<Tom 7> Oh, wow! Well, congrats on that! I thought it was noname that rated it because he said he solved it (by computer). Very impressive.
<Kacper> Thats too bad.I like them.On Botkoban 3 I think I have tried every way except the correct way :)
