Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Two long upper trays, three central horizontal trays, one right vertical receiver, and three bottom shutters share an outer road opening at `6/14`.
- Goal
- Complete orange, cyan, and green dependencies to open the icon shutters, then sort the long star-patterned waves and central receivers.
- Opening
- Route visible orange, green, cyan, cream, and lavender without interacting with the large icon shutters.
- Danger Zone
- A second bulk star wave can fill the road to `14/14` and block both side entries plus the right vertical lane.
- Mechanics
- The three car-icon shutters open through matching completion; star and direction-marked cars are traffic groups, not sources or gates.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the three large car icons on Level 492?
They label completion-driven shutters for orange, cyan, and green; finish the matching color to open each one.
Are the star cars special controls?
No. They are patterned traffic that arrives in large groups and still needs a matching receiver.
Why does the road reach `14/14`?
Long purple-star or yellow-star waves enter before the previous receiver drains; release only one bulk group at a time.
