OK, so how DO I do this room? I presume that

Even if I manage to do this, . And in any case, I still can't see how I would get past the first two guards.

×by the time I get past the last trapdoor, the snake is only three or four tiles long, too short to be of any use.

I still don't get it - . I've attached a demo of my latest attempt. Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?

I'm sorry, Kafka, I must be the only person who still has The Consequence in a JtRH player file. I love playing in JtRH. But I can't watch your demo.

You definitely need to use your snake movement rules as I stated above to get behind that snake. If the snake does not have vertical preference when you need him to, you can adjust that.

Thanks CSR. I managed, but not exactly by your method. But your comments confirmed that I was on the right lines.
