Where's a Clone Machine When You Need One?

<radiant> I wouldn't so much call this "easy" or "hard" as say that it defies all sense of a difficulty rating. The first four ratings are 10, 4, 1, and 7, and I can see the merit in every one of them.

<John Lewis> I've been able to solve it - and I'm using the latest version of Escape on Mac OS X. (By the way, the player file recovery was successful - thanks, Tom!)
<gary> Tom, please move this level to quarrantine as this is impossible.

Wait, did I say I was done with effectively bringing new tiles into the game?

And to finish off my little demonstration, at least for now, I think I'll put it to a bit of good.

Anyone who's solved Brokoban 1 can just Ctrl+0 into this as the levels play identically, it's just that now we don't have to use broken bots (and the limit of 15 that arises from using them).

I really ought to write a handler so that I can stop parsing ESX files mentally.

This was made to be a bit more of an actual challenge, so you can have some fun with the level before it heads off to quarantine.

<Tom 7> Oh, you scoundrel! :)

I did know this was possible but figured I was safe. You're right, the sanitizer should reject this level for violating the bots before bombs numbering rule. Thanks for pushing the envelope...

Okay, so #1 was a fairly tame demonstration, and if you accept the legitimacy of levels like that, it's obvious that the solution is supposed to work.

By contrast, the solution here is obviously _not_ supposed to work. Sure I know _why_ it works from a mechanical standpoint, but you can't tell me that this is the intended behavior. (Heck, it may be a good part of why the editor doesn't accept levels like these in the first place.)
