The goal is to get beethro to trigger the middle pp on the same turn that roaches trigger the remaining pps.

I'm not sure if I'm on the right track. I can get all but one of the pressure plates at once.

I'll post a demo, but there's actually a relatively straightforward way of doing this one once you know what you are going for.

Your main goal is to get the roach queens to spawn at

To get them to spawn there is mostly a matter of counting. Since the roaches are directly in a column below you just time moving a queen to the east and to the west so that they hit the right spots on turn 30. Follow the queens down then do the following.
