Re: [Enigma-devel] Alien Glyphs 3 Bug

I checked, and Tarim is right -- the rightmost middle stone should be
9th.  As for "Automaton," this level worked in a previous version of
enigma but a change in the details of how lasers, rotators, and
bolders interacted made it basically impossible.  I'll try to fix both
of these.
