- pimlottc 3y agoSpoiler alert
- tuukkah 3y agoAlso mapped on OSM with the name Millennium Maze: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/4940708 https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/4940708
- tromp 3y agoNice, but they could have used some more contrasting color for the maze paths...
- LeoPanthera 3y ago"OSM" is just data. You can supply your own renderer.
- tuukkah 3y agoThe orange highlight will disappear if you click the X. Also, if the hedges were mapped, they would appear in dark green on the map.
- OscarCunningham 3y agoAh, a maze where the 'left-hand rule' doesn't help.
- teekert 3y agoOh no! Guess we need a slime mold to solve it.
- PartiallyTyped 3y agoWhat kind of structure do mazes where the left-hand rule doesn't help have? From a first glance, cycles, but is it really a maze without those?
- curiousgal 3y agoAny maze with a wall that loops around itself.
- LeoPanthera 3y agoA maze where the goal is not on the edge of the maze. In this case, the goal is in the center. 3-dimensional mazes (which have bridges or tunnels) also often cannot be solved with this rule.
- zvr 3y agoYou first statement is not correct. The rule is perfectly useful to solve mazes where the goal is in the center. The requirement is that the walls should be connected, i.e. that there are no free-standing walls somewhere in the maze not connected to the border walls, for example.
- LeoPanthera 3y agoI stand corrected! I suppose it is possible to have a center goal that is connected to the edge by a wall.
- Shared404 3y agoThe left hand rule assumes that the end is on the same "cycle" as the entrance: --E-- | | | | --S-- if the end is instead on a different "cycle", it won't work: ------- | | | -- -- | || || || E || | ----- | | | ---S--- Hopefully this makes sense. I'm sure there's a propper phrasing of this in topology, but I don't know it.
