Im tantlisingly close, but stil can not figure out how to make something press the preesure plate in the middle of the triangle.
The cirtizen will always avoid it no matter how it is blocked, it seems , also blowing up relay stations does not help.
Also I can not bomb the fegundo on the plate as the citizen wont go near it unless blocked by the fegundo .....

Thanks Igusarov, your hint just put me on the right path, blowing up relay stations does indeed help ....

How do you get one of the citizens to activate the pressure plate at [25,16]?

Regardless of whether the eastern (purple) citizen is going north or south, running the fegundo over [26,16] from any direction forces that citizen over [27,16]. And it doesn't look like the blue and pink citizens will be any help either . . .

Is there some special sequence of moves that will make this citizen dodge westward?

I don't get this room at all. Although I can control the fegundo, I really don't understand how the citizens move.

I have managed, by luck and persistence, to release three roaches, although I don't understand how. But no matter what I try, I can't control the citizen in the triangle. Can someone give me a hint, or a tutorial in citizen movement?
