Gh3y Bridges alert!!!
s08 - 43072
s10 - 43672

I'm more than a little late for joining this discussion, but:

s3 16741.
This is a 'wet' bridge.

I've replicated the records for levels 1, 2 and 6, but I'm generally having troubles getting even close on the rest.

mendel, can you put that in English please?

Great to see a new face in here! :biggrin:

I can't figure out how you got 16741... but I did figure out how to get:

s3 - 16678 (also a wet bridge)

Keep trying though!

(by the way, you can look at a lot of the record bridges here).

s12:  58250

I want some new levels :-(

Another wet one:

s14: 46250

Been struggling with this level for ages.. finally... :biggrin:

My L3 bridge is very similar to yours - but instead of the vertical struts going nowhere, I had one cable on each side (i.e. asymmetric) from the anchor to the central support.

Two more:

s09: 60958
s11: 48156 (with a tip of the Hatlo hat to Genieser!)

Are these on hard with 0 links broken? That seems to be the standard "acceptance test" for this board.

I'm sure all the ones up to level 10 are. Some of the others may be dirty, but I expect those to be beaten pretty rapidly (I just wanted to get this thread started).

All prices are done on hard, 0 broken link, and all 4 passes.

1.  6596 (I don't think this number can be improved on)
2.  14308 (This required thinking "out of the box")

That's a coincidence... I had a level 2 bridge for 14308 exactly and I thought it was clean at first, but when I tested it a few more times it fell to bits :-O

Did you give it time to settle before you ran the train over, or run it over straight away?

(to do that I hit pause, reset, run train then hit pause again to get things moving)

I wonder if there's some kind of random element involved, so that each time you run the test it's slightly different?

I've noticed some odd stuff happening, like completely symmetrical bridges snapping links on just one side when they "settle".
