Machine Yearning

if you love the machine, you'll understand everything. Beautiful!

PCH / Unreal

I love the Machine Yearning Music Disc, and what can be achieved with just a few kilobytes.
Could you please help me fix it for an Ultimate 64?

The issue is the non-changeable CIA type on the Ultimate.
Perhaps you could modify the code so that it's also compatible with the old CIA type.

Thank you very much.

Best regards,
Marcel

The pinout is not that much different from yours.

I have spent about thirty hours on this one and cannot solve it.

I'm starting to think it may be easier to prove that it has no solution.

159 moves! No wonder I couldn't work it out. Did you do that by hand, or with a solver?

Could you share a link to the solver?

:syntax off

I do like syntax highlightning to *read* code that isn't mine, it speeds up the process. Also useful for opening/closing brackets/parenthesis/etc mismatch checks. But in practice I use plain vim without *any* addon since 30+ years and feel fine. (But I'm not a real programmer, just occasionally).

For a comprehensive overview, you can check out a comparison of the best solvers here:
https://sokoban-solver-statistics.sourceforge.io/statistics/OpenTestSuite/

The top-performing solver is Festival. You can click on the names of the solvers on that page to visit their websites.

For the easier, smaller levels on this site, you can also use the built-in solvers found in the applications JSoko or YASC.
https://jsokoapplet.sourceforge.io/
https://sourceforge.net/projects/sokobanyasc/

(YASC also supports calling the other solvers from the tools menu, so you can also use them together with the program)

I don't know anything about the Commodore 64, other than the fact that it only supports 8 sprites. So yea, this is cool as hell.
