'''Glider and Fire''' is the 96th level in [[Chip's Challenge Level Pack 2]]. Made by Rolf Redford, known for hard levels, Glider and Fire requires Chip to direct [[glider]]s safely through areas of [[fire]] in order to remove the [[bomb]]s in front of all the chips. The challenge is that there is a limited supply of [[block]]s to do this job; Chip cannot waste them. Despite the fact that this still isn't very difficult, Rolf describes it as the hardest level for himself to solve. The cloning gliders require a sense of timing as well as a cool head; if Chip does not know what he is doing, he can easily be hit even by the most obvious attacks.

Knock the block into the corner to redirect the gliders onto the three bombs for the [[fire boots]], then move right to the six blocks. Move block 1 2L, block 2 8L 3D, block 4 L, and then block 3 7L, which directs the gliders to the top. Clear block 1 UL out of the way, then take the first three chips, move the block 2R D and take the other three, and now pick the block up again to redirect the gliders south with 4D 2L.

==Lynx Notes==
As the [[glider]]s will not be destroyed by [[fire]] in [[Lynx]], it is considerably tougher to solve the level while it fills up with enemies. To avoid the flooding, once Chip has enough [[glider]]s, stop the flow with a [[block]] at [6,10], right by the water. Now he can work more freely and only the right side will fill up with [[glider]]s. If by accident Chip does not have enough material to destroy all the [[bomb]]s, he can still open the path by [[block slapping]] the plug. In this case it is good to have another block waiting at [4,9] or [4,11] so he can easily close the way again.


On the flip side of having the [[glider]]s survive the [[fire]], is that Chip reaches the point quicker when he has enough to destroy all the [[bomb]]s. Of course it also helps that Chip does not need to use up all the [[block]]s to direct them, so that speed things up as well. Overall, it is possible to score over 400 in Lynx, but understandably the optimal solution must be so chaotic that nobody has yet discovered it.
==Fix for Lynx==
As the gliders will not be destroyed by fire in [[Lynx ruleset|Lynx]], it is considerably tougher to solve the level while it fills up with enemies. For [[Chip's Challenge Level Pack 2 (Lynx)|CCLXP2]], however, this level is completely unchanged; and as a result, the most optimal solution in Lynx is 3 seconds quicker than the fastest solution in MS. A horizontally mirrored variant of the level titled ''Fireball and Water'' was considered, but it was ultimately decided against as the blocks would interact with the water differently than they would interact with the fire.


So far best known Lynx score is 401. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5JEtKDoexo

Glider and Fire is the 96th level in Chip's Challenge Level Pack 2. This level requires Chip to direct gliders safely through areas of fire in order to remove the bombs in front of all the chips. The challenge is that there is a limited supply of blocks to do this job; Chip cannot waste them. The cloning gliders require a sense of timing to negotiate safely; if Chip does not know what he is doing, he can easily be hit even by the most obvious attacks.

Knock the block into the corner to redirect the gliders onto the three bombs for the fire boots, then move right to the six blocks. Move block 1 2L, block 2 8L 3D, block 4 L, and then block 3 7L, which directs the gliders to the top. Clear block 1 UL out of the way, then take the first three chips, move the block 2R D and take the other three, and now pick the block up again to redirect the gliders south with 4D 2L.

Move block 5 R 2D, then block 6 3D 2L, which will cause the glider stream to temporarily turn to the right and explode this bomb. Shift the block R out of the way to allow it to continue south, then continue moving it 9D to redirect the gliders west.

Pick up the chips and throw this block 10D and R to explode this bomb, and continue to throw it R to allow the gliders away from the chips as you score them. To collect the next two chips, move the bottom block and then the top block 5R, but on the next bomb, move the top block 6R instead and leave the chips behind. Throw both blocks R, then use the first block on the bombs to the right, and go back and collect the two chips left behind.

Fix for Lynx[edit]

As the gliders will not be destroyed by fire in Lynx, it is considerably tougher to solve the level while it fills up with enemies. For CCLXP2, however, this level is completely unchanged; and as a result, the most optimal solution in Lynx is 3 seconds quicker than the fastest solution in MS. A horizontally mirrored variant of the level titled Fireball and Water was considered, but it was ultimately decided against as the blocks would interact with the water differently than they would interact with the fire.
