Farmer

Description
The traditional "farmer crossing the river" logic puzzle. The farmer has his faithful dog Rover (the Reflective block), his Chicken (the Cube), and a Bag of Barley (the Ball).

If he leaves the Chicken with the Barley, the Chicken will eat the Barley; if he leaves Rover with the Chicken, the dog will eat the chicken.

The farmer has a boat to cross the river, but he only has enough room to take one item of cargo with him on each trip; how does he get himself, his dog, his chicken, and his barley to the far side?

The push button on the portable surface resets the puzzle to the starting state. The faith plate is intended only to get you back to the start if you need to reset the chamber and you are advised to avoid it otherwise.

This level uses a lot of the logic gates as demonstrated in levels such as https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=72400122

KNOWN ISSUES:
The laser grid sometimes activates on a trip where the blocks SHOULD just reset.

The laser field was only intended to activate if the player attempts to "cheat", i.e. there is more than one block unaccounted for between the pedestals at either side or the player attempts to use the reflective cube as a standard block. "Failure" by leaving the dog/chicken or chicken/barley combination SHOULD just reset the cubes; I removed the trigger of the laser field if all three blocks are missing so it wouldn't (in theory) trigger every reset, but the timing when some blocks are missing seems to mess this up. I may have to content myself with preventing cheating with the fizzler rather than trying to give cheats a "nasty surprise"...

Oh, just saw the "known issues" section... Well but what is the laser field for? just remove it, the game will still work perfectly, isn't it?

Well that's the second map based on this map I try ^^ And the first remark is that I don't thing killing the player is a good idea for a game like that... Maybe respawn all the cubes when the player fail, but remove the laser field X)
