Gunthro and the Epic Blunder : Inauro Canyon : 3 North (0)

I dont really have any idea how to do this room. I have tried all entrances but the blue helpers (dont know what they are called) just get themselves stuck and how do you kill the roach in the bottom middle chamber without coming in that way, if you do you are then trapped. HELP please.

Oh, this.

I've actually given the most help of this room in the Chat, so there are two options: you could try to understand how the horns work in other rooms of this level, or try another level with better explanation of the horns.

Otherwise, here is the full solution (no hints):

It probably would help a lot to mention that the horn makes a soldier appear at the nearest entrance *that allows the soldier to reach ~~Bee~~Gunthro*...

For the longest time I was under the impression that it was the nearest empty entrance tile, period.

np: Dntel - Fear of Corners (Life is Full of Possibilities)

There is this whole other level that tells you what you're supposed to do.

Not to mention that there is this help file that actually tells you about most elements.

You know, perhaps they should put some puzzle that requires you to read the help files.

Then I must have skipped around it; perhaps introducing it somewhere between hubs would have helped?

Can you direct this directly to the dev team?

This is definitely a fair point.

I can't speak for the whole dev team, but I would be doubtful that we'd be making any major changes at this point in time (since all the voice acting's done etc).

Pfew, i never would have found this out.
Maybe putting a scroll in the room hinting to this behavior would be enough and it's not much to change...

Typically, yeah, but, as it turns out, putting a scroll in this room would be a big deal.

Well I've tried every combination of this advice Tim and can't find a way to get the soldiers past the blocks. Can someone please help me out of my dilemma?

The soldiers aren't really supposed to get past the blocks. That's why you have one for each roach. One order that works is the numbered order of those clues.

Although,

Oh, and you can do more to control soldiers than just which entrance they enter. If a soldier isn't going where you want, try blocking that path with Gunthro to make the soldier take a different route.
