SPOILER: Alternativ solution Non-overlapping Magisteria.
This is the solution I came up in my playthrough. No outside world abuse. Set up like in the screenshot. Make a step down to block the red beam with yourself, so that the blue receiver gets connected. Then you can safely pick up the converter on the left and bring it out.

Nice find! I also felt felt that a bodyblock-based switchover solution is possible, but could never get it to work.

That video shows the official solution I suppose. I looked it up after I came up with my solution to see how others solved it, and found that one in the video several times.
Is there some document with the solutions they really had in mind?

I don't know if there are official solutions. I figured it out by myself.

I don't know a document with solutions the developers had in mind.

The first game had a very cool test bot capable of playing the entire game by itself.

Nice. Reminds me of some solutions in TTP/RtG.
Actually think this (alternative) solution is kind of easier. Maybe it is the intended?

I don't know which is an intended solution but that doesn't matter at all. Any solution that works is a good one! So yours is as good as any other. :-)

I can think of only the benchmark being capable of playing the game on itself, but it plays only the demo and not the full game.

I'm talking about the auto test bot in TTP1: https://blog.playstation.com/archive/2015/09/25/how-croteam-built-a-bot-to-beat-its-ps4-puzzler-the-talos-principle/

It can be activated via the console when cheats are enabled: cht_bAutoTestBot=1

Anyway, I don't know if they have one for TTP2.

Aha, I didn't know that. I don't play with cheats enabled.

It would be neat if they have it, or if it can be added sometime. Its nice for making videos with some free-cam. And also of course see it solve a puzzle how it was intended too be solved

The bot is not perfect, though. Here is a full playthrough with it, complete with all stars. There are some occasions where it gets confused for different reasons and had no clue how to proceed further, so it had to be disabled temporarily. Or in some occasions, it even cheated and skipped to the next puzzle.

I've seen a similar thing happen with the benchmark, where it stayed clueless in the first puzzle after picking up the sigil. Normally, it would proceed to the next puzzle right away.

i'm not sure what the intended answer to this one is but I bodyblocked lasers to beat it.
Dubz 16 Nov, 2024 @ 11:32am 
I was highly skeptical at first, thinking I probably tried this, but tried and can confirm this works.
Dubz 16 Nov, 2024 @ 11:58am 
Here's my alternative solution. Looked up the anticipated solution afterwards and I am annoyed, but this still counts! Even if I needed some help from another puzzle :P
