Description
Here we go ^^ After thinking a bit about the concept of programmable test chambers, I finally came with this chamber! The puzzle itself is not too hard, but you have to activate the testing elements available in the correct order using laser cubes if you want to complete it ;)

Note : I focused a lot on the expected solution, but I'm not sure if there is some tricky exploits or some alternative solution, so please post some explaination of your solution with the [ spoiler] [/] code (or screenshots / or demos / or videos). Thanks ^^

Type : Logical
Difficulty : Medium/Hard

Update 1:
Improved cube respawn loop system, this should not fail any more.

Nice walkthrough ^^ Thanks for testing ;)

here's one of mine, where you build your own mechanism.

good map
first glace, very complex.
when I realised the reflector cube dropper area's only function was to respawn cubes, in order.
I tabled that & looked at exit area & the order I needed to activate everything.
then looked at symbols in 3rd chamber,
not that hard, when you don't try to sort all 3 chmbers in your head, at the same time.

Another great map. Interesting concept using a FIFO stack to operate a sequence. Cube delivery mechanism was awesome. Thanks and I'll see ya round the workshop.

@buff00n : Looks like the expected solution ^^ Glad it worked well for you.

The mechanism worked flawlessly for me once I had it figured out. Great ideas as always.

Well, after I settled a bit, I changed my vote. But it was still frustrating.

Map updated, the main loop should be unbreakable now ^^

Here is my blind playthrough of this map. You'll find plenty of comments in the demos as you watch them. http://bisqwit.iki.fi/kala/laserprogramming-geneosis-blind-by-bisqwit.zip
TL/DR: Brilliant idea, completely ruined by physics engine randomness = frustrating map, downvote.
