Need help with pin push shape
I'm playing normal, working on my pin pushing shapes. I didn't think this round seemed hard but I'm generally stumped on one. I have what I believe is the correct shape being delivered, but it's saying I have something wrong.

Su----Su:P-----P-:Rb----Rb

This is the shape I'm on, it is like half uncolored star, layer of pins, half blue rectangles sitting on the pins. I'm delivering what looks identical to the requested shape, but I have something wrong.

To get there, I take blue squares, pin them, then halve them, then stick the pinned rectangles on top of the half star. Looks exactly the same but different somehow and I'm stumped

The process you describe seems correct, but you need to make sure that your input shapes are really what you think they are. People often forget that they added an extra pin pusher somewhere upstream, for example, and it's really hard to notice that.

Click the belt where your final shapes are being delivered, and in the popup window on the right it will show the transported shapes. Click on that shape and check its code. Compare it with the code of the requested shape, and if there has been a mistake it will reveal itself.

Thank you, I didn't realize you could even do this. When doing this I saw the extra layer of pins I was adding. Totally my own fault, lost track of what I had going on and pinned twice upstream, and couldn't see it until I did the zoom in thing.

Thanks again

No problem. It does seem to be quite a frequent mistake among the players.
