Is L1 1N 1E do-able?

I can enter it, but landing on a yellow door in the process, but once I have stepped off it, I can't leave the room, as I can't get to the orb that opens the door because a blue door blocks the way.

Is there a bug?

Oh, and thanks for rewarding curiosity with insult. Scrolls in odd places really do make you want to read them.

Oh, and looking at L1 3E, I wouldn't say this room has that long a solution at all. It's very tedious, I'll admit, but compared to some of the ideas put forward in the "Longest Room Contest" thread, it's not very long.

The scroll at the bottom tells you to do all other rooms first.

It doesn't matter.

A watched blue door never opens.

You can finish the room, but you can't leave.

Depends on whether that room is marked as required. If it isn't, the blue door will be gone when you enter.

You should remove the original version in the first post then so people don't download it accidentally. You can either put the new version up there too, or keep it down here, that's up to you.

Game on,

Any hints on 1s2e level 1? I can't get into the bottom part; too many roaches; too many queens.

I think this is another impossible - there are 34 Queens and so 34 Roaches are spawned / 30 moves at maximum efficiency. Reduce the number of spawned Roaches to no larger than 13 / 30 moves or include a crumbly wall next to the gap in the wall to allow for more efficient roach killing, but still reducing the number of spawned Roaches to no more than 27 / 30 moves (To allow you to actually get to the Queens and back again before the next onslaught).

Actually, it's only possible to kill 15 roaches/spawn there. I didn't mention it because I thought it could be possible to get through the opening at the bottom right.

Even if you can enter from the bottom right you can't go north from the bottom section because of the force arrow.

At the top, it says "hold at the bottom of the page". This should be changed.

Having played through lvl 1 about 4 times I am not willing to do it again. So can you put in a warp or something so I can start at lvl 2.

That's a bad attitude to have. The testers are doing you a favor, so if you want their help, then you should keep them happy.

This has been an issue in Deep Hold, even though I have level jumps. You should put them where nobody has to solve anything before they get there.

And before everyone jumps on me for not actually doing this, I will say that I am planning to.
