Just wondering ||what is the intended number of fan activations for getting the platform?||

actually scrap that last question, a better question would be ||whether i am supposed to use the fan further from the right blue receiver to power the blue receiver||

||My intended way uses the left fan twice, but it was pointed out to me today that it can be done with one flight on each. Your choice on how to do it, the trick is figuring out how to send it on two flights in the recording.||

||I really want to know how many times you had to re-record that section, I had to reset 3 times just to get the timing once||

[slim vine]

||If you try to time the position with a single pause point then it'd be a nightmare, but just pressing it multiple times after shooting the connector basically always works. I think in the literally dozens of times I've solved it I only missed the timing once.||

||just checked the walkthrough, you can cheese the last door with a pretty obscure mechanic called running really fast ||

[slim vine]

Lol I did try that and was unable to do it with the buttons back as far as they are, but tbh that's one of the easier parts of the puzzle so I'd be surprised if anyone capable of getting that far would need to cheese the final door.
