now the inteded solution should really be the only one - rocky must run into the diamond when three flies guard it, and then run back with "escort service" ;d

also fun exercise to explain how this works frame-by-frame...! :-)  
  
btw, if you need the ' sign in the cave title: with my keyboard this just works by pressing the ' button and a space afterwards.

 Arno , i assume you successfully did that exercise? :d this was my result about how many flies rockford can run into with help of the open border. three is obviously the theoretical max, and it's actually possible! though only once per cave, because it only works in the top-left corner because only here rockford can be scanned before each of the flies and escape.   
  
i've just tried it out, but unfortunately it doesn't work on my keyboard :( the only possibility i found to have an apostroph in a cave name is to copy-and-paste one from somewhere else, and this also doesn't always work... sometimes i just don't have the patience :d  
  
btw, i'm actually looking for new dff by starting with big firefly squares in the bottom-left corner of a cave. (all facing left) as you need only a 4x4 square to produce the relatively complex fright-5, i have some hope that more could be found this way. and indeed many other known, complex dff occur with bigger firefly squares!  another promising approach i'm trying is to fill the square with butterflies so that the fireflies are only on the edge of the square. nothing new so far, however, but i'll keep trying a bit... :D

indeed i did that exercise; while doing so i also thought about the possibility to walk downward accompanied by both fly-types as well.. :-)  
  
new dff? i'm curious! ;-D

 Arno , isee, very nice!  
um no, no new dff so far, just a searching method that offers me some hope to find some if there are any more below, say, 8 flies ;D
