Mission 1-7?

[petrucio]

The missions on the first Act are pretty tutorial-ey, but I can't get past 1-7. That damn pillar always falls down. I figured they probably wouldn't add something too complicated for us to do when introducing a new concept, so maybe I'm missing something stupid here? Any tips?

Yeah, this level is very hard as for tutorial chapter. This is the only mission so far I wasn't able to kill all the zombies and I'm in chapter 4 now.

To finish level 1-7 you have to:
Tip1 use counterweight on the right side of the pillar
Tip2 attach ropes to the left dot on the pillar for the bridge to stabilize

Here is my solution for this level if you need more help:

Yeah I was already doing both Tip1 and Tip2 by myself, but the thing is so finicky and required things to be placed at very specific spots. Thanks for the screenshot.

Crap, even if I create the exact same structures you did, it still breaks. Seems like it might be frame rate or resolution dependent or something. So freaking annoying.

Honestly, I'm just gonna wait a few weeks and hope this level gets patched, I don't have time for this crap.

That was my solution for low budget and it indeed was falling apart rather quickly but they managed to finish the run safely.

Here is my other perfectly safe solution if you don't mind going over the budget and enjoy rest of the game:

You can do it under budget this way but it's gonna be pixel perfect finding the best solution with few planks and ropes. Maybe someone else will have better idea.

Also when I added two additional road pieces under main road it seems to fall apart just in time when they cross the bridge and it kills all the zombies:

If you don't build any wood supports on the bridge, it ends up a lot lighter, so you don't need too much weight on the container. Here's a bridge that kills all 10 walkers under budget (I cheated a little with a bit of road that just falls on 3 of the zombies).

Lol, I didn't know that kill with falling bridge is possible, nice trick!

With this bridge I killed all zombies (costs: 2091).

Thanks everyone!

♥Very Innocent Kobold™'s bridge did the trick for me.
