After the Rainstorm: Difference between revisions

'''After the Rainstorm''' is the 112th level in [[Chip's Challenge Level Pack 2]]. Noticeably, After the Rainstorm is harder than many [[water]] levels because [[Chip]] must often do things in a specific order or use some [[flippers]] to maneuver the blocks.

Move the six blocks in the start down over three water spaces, then build one D and one L without touching the two [[dirt]] spaces, and take the last block down and around to the sixth water. The fourth dirt buries a [[thin wall]] to the north, which will trap Chip if the lower water is not removed first, and prevents him from continuing the bridge down. Therefore, he must collect the seventh block to the left, stick it in, and ''then'' finish the bridge. Chip can now take the flippers.

In this area, Chip must untangle the blocks and then build around the puddle to reach the bottom of the river. Move each block out of the way, then remove one water square and knock the lower block L and then approach it from the ''right'' side, which will push down another block in the process. Chip now has two water squares removed; he no longer needs to build down because he has flippers; therefore, skip to the very bottom, then build three more water spaces down, and finish with the [[bomb]]. Now, Chip can take the three [[Computer chip|chip]]s.

The next section is a simple progressive [[wedge]]: knock blocks 1 and 4 out, which moves block 2 out to form the next wedge. In the third section, a [[force floor]] is under block 1; when Chip moves block 2 U, it will kill him if he tries to move RU immediately. The way to avoid this, which escapes many lesser players and leaves them baffled incessantly, is to use a [[ram]] by moving [[Directional notation#-X|-U]], which fixes the block in place. (Clicking [[Directional notation#.2AX|*U]] and utilizing the [[Mouse Panel Glitch]] is also usable for this purpose, and will add one move but not more points.)

''Now'', Chip can move block 1 out for upcoming use with 2U 3L. Teleport south and remove the [[socket]] to the west first, then use the block, go back around to the west and use the rammed block to reach the force floors. Next comes a long stretch of force floors which Chip is fortunately not ''required'' to move around on; for a faster but riskier solution, however, slide and move L >[L 3U R] R 2U >[L 5U R] R to get around to the very east side. Knock blocks 3 and 4 D, then move LU and pull this block west, east and into the teleport. Negotiate the force floors again and bridge to the bottom, which will connect with the other block to take Chip to the [[exit]] area. Off the [[thief]], Chip should move R 5D to uncover it.
