On completing Cruiser Innards with my tar baby, I was given the choice to go back to Eastern World, Assuming that there were challenges there for the tar baby different to Gunthro I made the selection. Unfortunately I now appear to be trapped. The tar baby cannot operate the button to allow access to the beach, nor do anything to pass through Auxiliary Ascension 1N1W. Can I make progress from this point at all or am I going to have start again from scratch?

I tried doing the same thing to investigate, and I was Beethro when I went back to Eastern World. And the exit was just to the west anyhow, so I could leave any time. So I'm confused about what exactly you did - it sounds like some script didn't work, but I have no idea why that would be the case.

Regardless, you won't have to start the whole hold over. Just use the Restore feature and you can start from any room you've been to, so you can pick one much closer to the part where the problem happened.

I've looked at the hold in the editor and there is a backtracking issue here. Normally the map is supposed to send you to Eastern World: 1W which avoids this issue. However, revisiting the previous level changes the map entrance to Eastern World: Entrance which doesn't have the same precautions.

In any case, like Dragon Fogel said, you don't lose any progress if you restore back to the end of Cruiser Innards and choose a different level.
