[SPOILER] Solutions
feel free to post your solutions here^^
here is what i did:

granted, it's not the most efficient way, and it took long to complete, but at least it doesn't use many instructions. or arms. or space.

i can't wait to see what you come up with^^

After starting my basic layout, I saw a butterfly. So I went with it :)

man, that looks beautiful^^ i can imagine this been hard to code, all the instructions to make the different output movements...

it looks way better than my crappy solution, so kudos to you :D

It's just a matter of breaking it down into smaller sections. :) Then you just have to combine everything and work out the final timings.

i bet you hand-coded every singel crystal :D you can almost see the struggle

i love how the arm at theend checks every single output solution. everythign seems to be small and recursive, similar to my design^^

Pressing v is easier

yeah, but i alwaysseem to get the timing wrong a bit and spend hours adjusting everything ;D

wow, that's mesmerizing to look at :D
and i love how you compacted the output.
i think this is the maximun throughput you can possibly have. good job^^

Decided to go for a more flashy output. Tried to do everything with the same instruction sheet, but couldnt work out how to do the 1-2 with the berlo wheel so ended up doubling up the instructions.

Sucks that you need to double up the instructions just to make 1 change to 1 part...

it still looks nicer than my original solution and it reminds me of a windmill :D
if you want to try to go faster, you could think of the berlo wheel as "plit in half", where on one side you use earth/fire conversion and the other side you use water/air conversions.
in other words, try to move the berlo wheel less, moving the products around it instead.
maybe that'll make it faster?
at the very least it will make it look more complicated :D
