  Added solution "Optimal bot killed":
Maybe interesting to future players.

  Added speedrun: 74 moves (old: 86).
Optimal. Turns out not too bad for my solver to solve unrestricted.

  Added solution "Optimal without bot":
Perhaps this would still be interesting for future players...

  Added speedrun: 86 moves (old: 103).
This should be optimal among those solutions which kill the hugbot.

I was able to keep the number of positions small by the above assumption, since this implies that all the panels controling the path to exit are covered by some block at the end, which means that blocks can't be, say, at an edge or form a 4x4 pattern with the wall (with at least one of the block being grey).

I don't know if it's possible to solve without all blocks on a panel at the end; the total number of possible configurations without restriction seems too large for my solver to handle in reasonable time, so I'm not going to have my solver attempt this until I can come up with some new idea for this part.

  Added speedrun: 103 moves (old: 107).
Optimal among those solutions which do not release the bot. Releasing the bot seems to make the level too complicated for my computer to solve in reasonable amount of time, so I haven't tried that part.

  Added solution "down and to the right":
It is possible to bring the hugbot down on on the right side.

Cook: Didn't need hugbot.

  Cook: These are getting better. Doesn't require the hugbot, though.

  Nice one. I like how you have to bring the hugbot down on the left--I spent a few fruitless minutes trying to devise a way to get him down on the right before I realized you could do that...
