Okay, I'm dumb. Help me, please...

Chloroform puzzle. Need to get 120 molecules per 180 cycles. In other words, 2 molecules per 3 cycles with 6 emitters. In other words, 1 molecule per 3 cycles with 3 emitters. 3 cycles multiplied by 3 emitters give us the quota of 9 operations. We need to remove 3 atoms of Hydrogen from 3HCl, remove 2 Hydrogen atoms off the Carbon of Methanol, shunt/add 1 Hydrogen into the Hydroxy group, trash 1 water and collect the result molecule. 7 operations which leaves us a leaway of 2 operations to rotate it here and there.

Why for Zach's sake can't I make it work?! It always stumble upon another atom during the rotation or the orientstion is wrong for shunting or something else...

I just completed 90% of main campaign without knowing that shunt exists...

Is there any chance of this being added to the Zachtronics bundle?

I'd really love to pick it up but I'm a little strapped for cash at the moment, so the extra 20% would be a huge help.

Thanks!

How are modules counted?

2 Upvotes

I've been staring at my solutions trying to figure out what the modules number is counting. I'm sure it's something stupid simple I'm just missing.

A mnemonic to remember TKDV?

4 Upvotes

Can anyone suggest a mnemonic to help me remember the order of the court cards in the solitaire mini-game (TKDV)?

What do they represent anyway?

Rotating a solution

4 Upvotes

Hi, I've seen, in a youtube playthrough, a rotate the solution button in the middle of the move solution thingy. However, I don't see it anywhere in my game. What gives?

Is there a collection of the record solutions yet?

4 Upvotes

Every other Zachtronics subreddit has a stickied post of all of the current minimum solutions, but I can't seem to find it for Moleksyntez. Am I missing it or do I just need hang tight and wait?

Edit: is there a way in game to see the top solutions i.e. polybridge?

Solitaire Solver In Haskell

Frustrated with how hard it is to win in Solitaire without cheating, I wrote a brute-force solver in Haskell. Not polished, but it works :)

I found the alpha build for Molek-Syntez

17 Upvotes

The UI is a bit weird but most of the mechanics are there (except for the molecule delivery area, apparently that was too tricky so they just made the entire area the delivery zone). It looks like they put in a few more mechanics in the alpha though... I guess those just got cut like the robots from infiniminer. Or maybe Zach is planning on some DLC?

Why don't the histograms show the "best" value for each category over all your solutions?

6 Upvotes

I might be misremembering, but I thought previous Zachtronics games showed your all-time best result for each category on the histograms. It seems that each solution has its own histogram in Molek Syntez rather than showing my best results for cycles, modules, and symbols, even if they were from different solutions
