This level has been fun, and so is this room. I thought I almost had it, but I'm stumped closing the yellow door at lower right (30,16). I can't get an eye to stand on the right pressure plate for the necessary 6 moves, or really at all -- he follows me to the brink of the water as I move east along the bottom. (I can imagine using the invisibility of shallow water to help if the eye were further west, but he's not.)

I can also foresee a similar problem with getting at the eye up in the northwest, having somebody stand on the southeastern pressure plate while I move up. It's possible that these two problems are intertwined, and I need to have two or three eyes on the loose together. But so far I'm not seeing it. A hint or two perhaps?

I'm not at my pc all day so can't check my solution. If the eye is too close to you then I have two questions for you.

1) which eye are you trying to get on the plate?


2) where are you waking up the eye?


I hope this helps, I can give better help tomorrow if you still need it.

OK, I finally got home with enough time to work on this, and I thank you for taking the time to help, but I must confess I'm finding it hard to figure out everything you said. I've been using Am I altogether on the wrong track?

Ah. (Thank you!) Well, now I'm having a new and different kind of trouble. But that's life. Onward, I hope.

After some time off, I just went back, and finally solved it. Thank you for the crucial bit of help!
