Gem contraption puzzle 04/24/2021 02:26 PM CDT
Is it possible to get the gem contraption puzzle cut back to just one or two Arkati? Even when you know how to do it and have the resources handy (or remember them), it takes quite a while to get through all five Arkati at two settings per.

Thank you!

I want a gem contraption I can carry around and cut gems with. Mind you, I have gemcutters, patterns, and as of this morning's incomplete count, 266 unique lapidary patterns in Plat.

That said, a demonstration of the gem contraption puzzle took 350 commands to solve via script. As compared to one of the puzzles in Order, which takes TWO.

I am 100000% in support of the "please reduce the # of Arkati in the gem contraption puzzle" request. (Still want a portable of my own though.)

Thirded. The contraption puzzle is the longest solve of the lot by far.
