How to Solve Car Sort Level 486 — Full Solution
- Dispatch inner green, then white, into visible receivers.
- Send red and star-lavender and pause near `13/16`.
- Complete the first upper yellow/orange row so the side `3` gates begin falling.
- Route newly exposed pink and cyan after occupancy drops below `10/16`.
- Advance the inner `4` tray and clear its orange/brown reveal.
- Work lower `4/3/4` trays one at a time, routing pink, yellow, blue, and purple after each thaw.
- Finish long red and green inner columns before another upper reveal.
- Clear late white, cyan, and orange from lower queues.
- Complete final pink, lavender, yellow, and blue groups.
- Let the loop drain to `0/16`, confirm all checks, and wait for completion.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Releasing a newly thawed row while occupancy is already above `13/16`.

- Reading star-patterned lavender as an unknown color.
Quick Tips for Car Sort Level 486 (quick clues)
- Wait for the triggering receiver to drain after every countdown change.
- Star-patterned lavender cars remain lavender.
- None of the rectangular numbered trays is a tappable round dispatch source.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Upper and lower frozen trays, three inner columns, and star-patterned lavender rows share one rectangular `16`-space road.
- Goal
- Reduce each completion-driven countdown, clear every revealed color row, and empty the loop.
- Opening
- Release inner green and white, then red and star-lavender, before using yellow or orange from a thawed tray.
- Danger Zone
- Do not add a thawed long row at `13/16` or above; gate numerals do not represent free road spaces.
- Mechanics
- Multiple rectangular countdown gates marked `3` or `4`, layered queues, and a sixteen-space road stage the solve.
