free rider powerup puzzles

an oldie but goodie from the fr2 days.

objective: using only powerups, create an auto that collects all the stars using a premade puzzle track code.

rules:

• you may not edit the premade puzzle code. do not mess with the lines or the stars.
• the only thing you may add to the code are powerups - boosts, gravities, antigrav, teleports, and vehicle powerups
• the puzzle is completed when the track becomes an auto that collect all of the stars

and of course, to make it competitive, the contest is to see how few powerups you use to complete the puzzle. here are the point values for each powerup added:

• boost - 1 point
• gravity - 2 points
• antigravity - 3 points
• vehicle powerup - 4 points
• teleport - 5 points

the winner is the person that scores the least amount of points! in the case of a tie, the fastest auto completion wins.

I'll make the first, then after that I'll pass it on to someone else. here's the first puzzle:

Code:

a 1i u 1i,-aa 0 0 -aa,cq -1i p0 -1i p0 -8e,-aa 5u -ls 5u -ls 0 -aa 0,-68 92 -aa 92,-26 50 -68 92,1s 92 -26 50,1s 92 cq 92 cq -1i,-aa 92 -aa 5u,a 1i a 1s u 1s u 1i,4m -34 4m -ab,a0 -8e 4m -34,0 -aa 4m -ab,a0 -8e p0 -8e##T fa -76,T -6i 7q,T -k0 50,T 34 -50#BMX

and as an example, here's a completed puzzle (with a point total of 11 points)

Code:

a 1i u 1i,-aa 0 0 -aa,cq -1i p0 -1i p0 -8e,-aa 5u -ls 5u -ls 0 -aa 0,-68 92 -aa 92,-26 50 -68 92,1s 92 -26 50,1s 92 cq 92 cq -1i,-aa 92 -aa 5u,a 1i a 1s u 1s u 1i,4m -34 4m -ab,a0 -8e 4m -34,0 -aa 4m -ab,a0 -8e p0 -8e##T fa -76,T -6i 7q,T -k0 50,T 34 -50,W u 50 fa -5u,B fa -1i 8e,B 26 7g 9l,G -9m 8e 22,G 1i -34 7c#BMX

 

That was really fun. I think I scored 8 here

Code:

a 1i u 1i,-aa 0 0 -aa 4m -ab,cq -1i p0 -1i p0 -8e,-aa 5u -ls 5u -ls 0 -aa 0,-68 92 -aa 92 -aa 5u,-26 50 -68 92,1s 92 -26 50,1s 92 cq 92 cq -1i,a 1i a 1s u 1s u 1i,4m -34 4m -ab,a0 -8e 4m -34,a0 -8e p0 -8e##T fa -76,T -6i 7q,T -k0 50,T 34 -50,B g -f 6,G 3k -5s 73,G -c5 4v 57,G -7e 7l 0,B -2h 28 45

Good design, Ness.

 

Very cool and also interesting concept , I got 4 (bmx)

Code:

a 1i u 1i,-aa 0 0 -aa 4m -ab,cq -1i p0 -1i p0 -8e,-aa 5u -ls 5u -ls 0 -aa 0,-68 92 -aa 92 -aa 5u,-26 50 -68 92,1s 92 -26 50,1s 92 cq 92 cq -1i,a 1i a 1s u 1s u 1i,4m -34 4m -ab,a0 -8e 4m -34,a0 -8e p0 -8e##T fa -76,T -6i 7q,T -k0 50,T 34 -50,B -1j t 8n,G -94 7m 1i,B 2o -69 64#BMX

 

damn I couldn't beat this! closest I got was 5 points

Code:

a 1i u 1i,-aa 0 0 -aa,cq -1i p0 -1i p0 -8e,-aa 5u -ls 5u -ls 0 -aa 0,-68 92 -aa 92,-26 50 -68 92,1s 92 -26 50,1s 92 cq 92 cq -1i,-aa 92 -aa 5u,a 1i a 1s u 1s u 1i,4m -34 4m -ab,a0 -8e 4m -34,0 -aa 4m -ab,a0 -8e p0 -8e##T fa -76,T -6i 7q,T -k0 50,T 34 -50,G -ku 5k 59,B -1j 1r a5,B -65 66 8,B 64 -1k 7#BMX

looks like you're the winner, but I'll leave it up as a challenge for a bit longer. Zycerak are you down to make the next puzzle code?
