What an arsenal of ingenuity! A collection of clever tricks!
I didn't use the cube by the z-bot, but leaving it protected him later.
Have a sneaky feeling that I did the first room differently.
I put a box on the red button instead of a sphere.

Thanks Amnon for the hint. I had to start all over because I was doing it all wrong except the first part, but made it with your help. Thanks Liz for the fun.
Playing the revision was almost the same, so I guess I did it the intended way, how unusual... I did need to cover the aqua button this time, which I didn't earlier, but it was not a significant difference. Thanks again.

So here's a version which needs it to be covered!
Sorry for not hiding my previous comment.
Ironically, I would sometimes cover the aqua button in the first version, even though it wasn't necessary.
But now in the revised version it must be covered. Here's what I was previously doing in the first version:
I pushed the cube all the way right. This protected the z-bot from the possibility of being run over by the boulder when travelling north.

Hi Anne,
Not the boulder from the generator, but the one that's tramped to destroy the keg.
That's the one I was talking about, also. I just went back to the level and went, "OH my gosh, I could have killed my zbot". I got lucky on all of my start overs, I guess.

Hi Anne,
Once I wasn't so lucky with either the generator or the tramps.
But I replay levels many times after I solve them to find alternate paths, refine my moves and for the fun of it.
Hi Liz
There was not much time to play RTW during the last few weeks because I spent all my computer time with the editor. I tried to launch my new series as fast as possible.
But now I've found the minutes (OK, the hours... ) to catch up the missed pirate levels. Your video solutions and Amnon's hints were needed a few times, but must of the problems I could solve on my own.
I thoroughly enjoyed the adventures and loved especially your carefully designed maps. Hope to be a better 'follower' in the future.
