Ok - on Levers 2, use a 3 pea cluster in one shot!

On the shares edit, hit reset and smack him in the air - with good timing you will get the other one as well and destroy the castle.

Hello Everybody. It's nice to have the old format back, isn't it? And such lovely weather were having this week. Summertime in Spring. I have two questions.
1. Suppose I wanted to review all the posts of a single player, myself say, haha, I'm not vain am I? How would I do that if my .sol file no longer has those games saved but they are spread across the many pages of the community forum?
2. I know how many of you enjoy making the fantastic circus flips and sticking the landings, etc. I have never seen a castle setup where the lever acting on the flip was initiated by a toss from the trebuche, e.g., stone or bomb lands on the castle lever flipping the character (your choice) for a perfect stuck landing, preferrably on a higher level or into and destroying the castle.Why don't we experiment with that for a bit? My apologies if it has already been done.
Cheers

Swing The Hammer

It can be done chupie but it is inconsistent as mud.

Here it is again and you will note the little fs is tilted the other way.

I am not sure where I hit it with a medium stone but somewhere between centre and lower on the hammer.

As for finding people on this forum, there is no way at present but would be a nice feature! Maybe you should add a comment to Joey Betz at this link.

Okay, one more just for fun...

The king landed in the hole dead centre and fell over...

@chupie - I am working on the one you suggested with the bomb to launch something to land on a launch pad and set someone off. The biggest difficulty in working with this is finding the sweet spot for the the flip and as well, the element.

I did this next one a few months back but finally got it to work. Throw a large stone at the base of the roof and find the sweet spot!

Next will be the large bomb!

@CJ For me, King always dies in Swing the Hammer. But the hammer is easy to start in motion and always hits the lever.
rock flip is more what I had in mind but very simple. We can expand on that.
I'll be expecting something exciting and will work on one myself.

@chupie - I will await your prototype just to see what you are thinking. Swing the Hammer took a long time to develop as there were so many variables. All was done in the editor - not off screen because it was so complicated. When I saw the King land on his face in the same spot 3 or 4 times, then, I made some adjustments and got lucky (5 or 6 times so far...).

The Princess stone flip was a bit easier but if you put anyone in the tower, it won't work!

It is a challenge to make these types of stunts consistent enough to be enjoyable and I am surprised that Falgorr has not beat them :P!

Something for a challenge and I am sure that Charlesme will get involved as he is a master at flipping elements as well as castlenovice.

You talked about the nice spring weather - we are in the midst of a spring blizzard right now....

movin' on up
@CJ, This is incomplete but I think it has potential. The princess lands on the high tower, or goes head first over it or head first into the side, while the queen does a back flip onto the short tower. So far they both die. Do you want to try improving it? Or maybe use this as inspiration for a new circus act.
