You are given a grid of squares, some of which are filled with train
|
||||
tracks. You need to complete the track from A to B so that the rows and
|
||||
columns contain the same number of track segments as are indicated in the
|
||||
clues to the top and right of the grid.
|
||||
|
||||
There are only straight and 90 degree curved rails, and the track may not
|
||||
cross itself.
|
||||
|
||||
Tracks was contributed to this collection by James Harvey.

Left-clicking on an edge between two squares adds a track segment between
|
||||
the two squares. Right-clicking on an edge adds a cross on the edge,
|
||||
indicating no track is possible there.
|
||||
|
||||
Left-clicking in a square adds a colour indicator showing that you know the
|
||||
square must contain a track, even if you don't know which edges it crosses
|
||||
yet. Right-clicking in a square adds a cross indicating it contains no
|
||||
track segment.
|
||||
|
||||
Left- or right-dragging between squares allows you to lay a straight line
|
||||
of is-track or is-not-track indicators, useful for filling in rows or
|
||||
columns to match the clue.

|

|

\dd Controls the difficulty of the generated puzzle: at Tricky level,
|
||||
you are required to make more deductions regarding disregarding moves
|
||||
that would lead to impossible crossings later.
|
||||
|
||||
\dt \e{Disallow consecutive 1 clues}
|
||||
|
||||
\dd Controls whether the Tracks game generation permits two adjacent
|
||||
rows or columns to have a 1 clue, or permits the row or column of the
|
||||
track's endpoint to have a 1 clue. By default this is not permitted,
|
||||
to avoid long straight boring segments of track and make the games
|
||||
more twiddly and interesting. If you want to restore the possibility,
|
||||
turn this option off.
