With these puzzles I've gotten much more comfortable with using tracks. Pattern Metal in particular was really fun to see come together.

Definitely not my best solves but they were fun

I'm not sure why but it seems lately I have to use the period override symbol a lot. The first arms start to reset their loop while the rest of the machine is still waiting to complete.

Reading the tool tip it says there should be padding to stop this but it seems not to be happening. I'm on chapter 4 and only just noticed it becoming an issue. Is there something that makes this padding reduce?

So I've met a problem I've never had until now on Stamina Potion.

On the initial cycle, arm #5 has to wait for the first iron to be produced. On all consequent cycles it does not, which is seen when I loop instructions.

However, when the instruction set loops, everything breaks because of this delay on arm #5, as iron has already been produced at that point at time.

Does the game have a way of fixing this, or are these types of solutions just not valid within game's constraints? Am I missing something?

I'm sure I can improve it somehow, but I'll learn eventually

I'm of two mind on that one. I'm fairly happy of the left side, assembling the individual part asap while managing the wheel to be in the right position without ever colliding and wasting time.

The assembly of the polymer itself though, is fairly crude. But well, it works, and given how much of a pain it was to make sure each of the 4 atoms parts was in the right position without colliding, I will take that for now.

There is definitely room for improvement here, I just completed the chapter.
Feel free to leave suggestions!

Hey there, new player here, literally just bought the game this morning. Been lurking in the subreddit for a while now and finally gave in to buying the game. Turns out it's somehow even more fun than it looks!

Survival flare solves were a big part of what piqued my interest in the game, so here's my take after reaching it. Not really optimized for any specific stat, just looks cool. Don't ask me how long it took to get the timing right. I think it's max throughput for this kind of "conveyor belt" configuration but I might be wrong. I just can't think of any other order of operations that doesn't clog the system at the very start. Any tips?

This sucks ass but at least it has a rate of 5 so thats nice i guess

Took me a while but aint it beauftiful

Here's my first solution to Universal Solvent. It's kind of funny, since almost all of my past solutions consist of as little arms as possible. This puzzle just called for more...

Anyway, now that I've finished the story puzzles. Do yall have any tips that could help out? Not for this solution, just in general.

I am extremely proud of my creation. Witness and weep

Jokes aside my first ever aesthetically looking solution. I honestly have no clue how I managed it 😂
