Test of the Pathmaker

{{T4}}

== Overview ==
''Design a miniature system of aqueduct towers, and challenge other to connect them in a loop. Living mossy towers (green) require the pipe to pass straight through, but turn adjacent. Dead (black) towers require the pipe to turn in place, but extend straight.''

== Principles ==

The Test and Principles can be started from a University of Thought at level 6.

''Principles of the Pathmaker will lead you through making one of each type of item needed to build a Pathmaker. Of course, you may trade for the materials, bypassing all of those steps.''

* Dig a [[Cuttable Stone]] at a Hole
* Cut a [[Cut Stone|Stone]] on a [[Rock Saw]]
* Cut a Hexas Plate Amethyst
* Cut a Looking Glass Jade
* Cut a Symmetry Turquoise
* Cut a Dragyn's Eye Citrine
* Mine a [[Huge Diamond]]
* Mine a [[Medium Topaz]]
* Mine [[Silver]]
* Build a Pathmaker
* Open your design for Judging
* Tear down your Pathmaker, OR do the following:
** Have 7 Judges solve and rate your Pathmaker
** Design rated Good by most judges
* All of the above, OR solve three recent winning Pathmakers

====Don't Panic!====
All steps regarding cutting a gem and mining gems do not need to be resolved. Once a Pathmaker has been built and Opened for judging, all Construction related steps are automatically completed if not already!

=== Demonstrate the Principle ===
* 2 [[Cut Gems#Hexas Plate|Hexas Plate cut Amethyst]]
* 2 [[Cut Gems#Dragyn's Eye|Dragyn's Eye cut Citrine]]
* 2 [[Huge Diamond]]
* 10 [[Medium Topaz]]
* 100 [[Silver Wire]]

''Demonstrated by [[User:Numaris|Numaris]] in [[Alcyone]] on 10-10-04.''

== Designing a Puzzle ==

=== Cost to build ===
* 300 [[requires::Cut Stone]]
* 3 [[requires::Cut Gems#Hexas Plate|Hexas Plate cut Amethyst]]
* 3 [[requires::Cut Gems#Looking Glass|Looking Glass cut Jade]]
* 2 [[requires::Cut Gems#Symmetry|Symmetry cut Turquoise]]
* 1 [[requires::Cut Gems#Dragyn's Eye|Dragyn's Eye cut Citrine]]
* 2 [[requires::Huge Diamond]]
* 12 [[requires::Medium Topaz]]
* 60 [[requires::Silver Wire]]

Built in a [[Small Construction Site]] Under Test Menu

== Solving a Puzzle ==

The test description isn't very clear about the rules. Here's some clarification.

A Pathmaker puzzle is played on a two-dimensional grid. Initially, each square either contains a red tower, yellow tower, or is empty.

You may place pipe segments on a square, including squares containing a tower, by clicking on the square. Clicking on a square again cycles through the possible pipe options for that square:

* Straight pipe, top-to-bottom.
* Straight pipe, left-to-right.
* Pipe with a 90 degree bend (4 possible orientations).

The object of the puzzle is to join all towers into a single closed loop, while obeying these rules:

* All pipes must connect up correctly to adjacent squares
* You may only have one pipe segment per square, i.e. you cannot have a "cross" pipe.
* Pipes on a square with a yellow tower must be straight.
* Pipes on a square with a red tower must be a 90 degree bend.
* One of the pipes connected ''immediately adjacent'' to a yellow tower must be a 90 degree bend. (Note: the rules only require one of the two to be a bend, but both can be bends if you like).
* The two pipes connected ''immediately adjacent'' to a red tower must be straight.

The Pathmaker will not let you place pipes that violate these rules.

== Pathmaker Locations ==
* Green for recognized (passed) puzzles (use "Gr" prefix on pin)
* Red for unrecognized (unpassed) puzzles (use "Rd" prefix on pin)
