This game started out so relaxing, slowly automate machinery in a robot building factory, but in a puzzle game setting. This is basically a Turing Machine creator hidden within a puzzle game. It's fun, and to get things efficient it's hard!

About Manufactoria 2022:
A really smart engineer can build robots that do just about everything. Are there any problems that more robots can't solve? You'll find out!
From the creator of Silicon Zeroes and the original Manufactoria, Manufactoria 2022 is a new open-ended puzzle game. Build assembly lines that push robots around and rewrite their strangely paper-based brains. Figure out which robots will work, and send the rest straight into the slagheap!
Solve: Manufactoria has (very slightly) more than a hundred puzzles, but just eight different types of machine to place. How complicated could these robots possibly get? You'll find out :)
Improve: Getting assembly lines working at all is hard enough. If you're looking for more challenge, though, it's time to see if you can make your solutions faster, more compact, more elegant. Get gold medals! Beat your friends, and then make fun of em! Compete for global leaderboards!
Advance: Go from a garage robotics startup to a booming megabusiness. Work with a colorful cast of characters to inflict your creations on an unsuspecting world. It's gonna be a blast!

Ah, Mr Engineer. So this is a common programming issue where you can have super-efficient programs or super small programs but in a lot of cases you can't do both (usually you're aiming somewhere in the middle depending on computing power/data throughput/other active concurrent threads...it's a whole thing). The way to speed up this one is turn the conveyor belts into readers pointing the colour you're ignoring at each other and instead of throwing them back onto the middle track when they're empty dump them in the fire pits directly (that eliminates yet another check) gives you a bulky thing but it will run so much faster. (Heck, even having two readers pointing at each other instead of a second conveyor belt will pretty much halve your time without adding all the fire pits but will break your lower size limit because you need to feed the blues into success pits so you might as well bloat the thing if you're going for max speed)

I think the trick to the timing achievement is to fail the space achievement. Theirs took about half your time because it didn't spend half it's time on the belt going back in. To win all you need to do is make sure it's always being tested or trashed by flipping the red/bluecheck and duplicating the logic next to itself. Test using RRRRRRRRRRRRRB because that's what the game uses(14 reds + a blue) so it should spend 1 on the start, 14 having the reds pulled off and tested, 1 get the blue tested for 16 total. You're spending 28 because you've got 24 ticks just removing the reds(1 for the test + 1 conveyor moving it back).

@paleblue103 Жыл бұрын

Exactly. Something that uses only a few blocks of space is usually a lot less efficient (more moves because of repetition commands) than something that is giant and less elegant but has every step in a simple line. As informative as these global statistics are in games like this, they show ALL solutions at the same time and with that represent an "average" solution that is simply not possible to make. Even in very open games like "opus magnum" that has a third category with "price", you rarely get 2 of them above average at the same time because something will always fall behind.

@conorstewart2214 Жыл бұрын

@@paleblue103 there are three properties that contradict each other, speed, efficiency and cost. When you are designing something you should choose 2 to focus on, like fast and efficient but expensive, or efficient and cheap but slow. Sometimes that isnt even possible though and you can only focus on one property, such as if you want it to be very fast, it may not be possible to make it cheap or efficient, think about a sports car, thats a good example of that. For general design though you want to try and focus on two of the properties and not just one.

SPOILERS? (I dont actually know the answer but a prompt to work on): @12:17 Curious! For the 9 sq requirement of trying to isolate strings with a single unique colour (or number, bitwise, that you want to accept 100 or 011 and reject 000 or 1100): are you able to use the starting square and pass the test string over that. Meaning you can replace the starting conveyor belt or violate the directionality? This basically frees up a space. That you don’t need [start][1/0 splitter] and try to decrease this logic down to one square.

If you want to build a turning machine, why fiddle around with approximations? Play "Turning Machine" and build your own CPU from logic gates. :) Seriously, its a good game if you like this sort of puzzle game, and it is reasonably approachable for someone without digital design experience. And you do end up building a turning complete CPU (twice -- one 8 bit, and one 32 bit) with RAM, keyboard, and a screen for output. Plus, it you get to setup your own (very primitive) assembler so you can write programs for it.
