But not now, first we need to get the ice block into position. Hint: you will ride the ice block down the ice chute. This should be interpreted as a clue to what you need to eventually do. Make use of appropriate equipage before descending on ice block Once you get to the top, you’ll be greeted with a sign that says: To proceed, go to the left of the platform and you’ll find this ladder that’ll take you to the upper platform where the station is. You’ll then want to lower the ice block as low as possible to make sure that the block clears the mountainside.ĭon’t forget that you can activate Sockets from a distance. We think it best to lower the bridge first. ![]() ![]() If you lower the crane with the bridge up, you’ll won’t be able to lower it. Using the controls back at the control room atop the bridge, lower the ice block to a point where it doesn’t collide with the side of the mountain. If the crane stops moving for whatever reason, it is most likely that something is in the way of the ice block. You’ll want to ride the ice block to go past the locked door. You will need this block of ice to open the metal door. It’s a similar situation to the gap puzzle.Ĭlimb the ladder, and you will find crane controls for the ice block you used to solve the previous puzzle. There is a ladder on the side of the bridge where the metal door is. On the opposite side, you won’t see anything except for the metal door further down the path. You can now use it to activate the bridge from that side. Standing on the tip of the bridge, cast your Adjuct so that it lands on the Socket. This puzzle will remind you that you can aim and cast your Adjunct to distant targets. You can raise the bridge on your side but that leaves the one on the other side. The bridge puzzle is sort of an extension of the game’s tutorial.

You will have already guessed what the fixed angle of turn is - it is Phi cells per turn or phi turns per new cell. The principle that a singleangle produces uniform packings no matter how much growth appears after it was only provedmathematically in 1993 by Douady and Couder, two french mathematicians. Yes! This was suspected by people as early as the last century. ![]() Similarly, once a seed is positioned on a seedhead, the seed continues out ina straight line pushed out by other new seeds, but retaining the original angle on the seedhead.No matter how large the seedhead, the seeds will always be packed uniformlyon the seedhead.Īnd all this can be done with a single fixed angle of rotation between new cells? So, once an angle is fixed for a leaf, say,that leaf will least obscure the leaves below and be least obscured by any future leavesabove it. The amazing thing is that a single fixed angle can produce the optimal design nomatter how big the plant grows. These cells may then become a new branch, or perhaps on a flower become petals and stamens. Cells earlier down the stem expand and so thegrowing point rises.Īlso, these cells grow in a spiral fashion, as if the stem turns by an angle and thena new cell appears, turning again and then another new cell is formed and so on. Once formed, they grow in size, but new cells areonly formed at such growing points. So just how do plants grow to maintain this optimality of design? The Meristem and Spiral growth patternsBotanists have shown that plants grow from a single tiny group of cells right atthe tip of any growing plant, called the meristem.There is a separate meristem at the end of each branch or twig where new cells are formed. What is more, ALL of these maintaintheir efficiency as the plant continues to grow and that's a lot to askof a single process! What nature seems to use is the same pattern to place seeds on a seedheadas it used to arrangepetals around the edge of a flower AND to place leaves round a stem. So why doesn't nature use one of these? Seeds are round (mostly), so why don't wesee hexagonal arrangments on seedheads?Īlthough hexagonal symmetry IS the best packing for circular seeds, it doesn't answerthe question of how leaves should be arranged round a stem or how to pack flower-heads(which are circular because that is the shape that encloses maximum area for minimum edge) with seeds that grow in size. Whereas round objects pack better in a hexagonal arrangement. square objects would pack most closely in a square array, PackingsIf you were asked what was the best way to pack objects your answer woulddepend on the shape of the objects since. Why does nature like using Phi in so many plants? The answer lies in packings - the best arrangement of objects to minimise wasted space. ![]() WAV (Waveform Audio Format): An uncompressed format that preserves the original audio quality but generates larger files.

It's nothing personal, Mary Jane it's just, have you noticed the title of the game you're in? If I play a game called " Sergeant Flashybollocks", it's because I want to spend time only in the company of the most luminescent of testicles stop insisting on getting presents when it isn't your birthday party. ![]() Oh, they gave Mary Jane an instant-takedown stun gun this time, but that just made me wonder why the hell the Spider-Mans have to punch a dude fifteen times to get the same result. Spider-Man 2 is, therefore, officially a game I wanted to play when I had no obligation to do so let that be the thing you take away after I've finished spending the next few paragraphs picking at it like it's a stubborn price sticker on a new piece of expensive electronics.Īs I said, after Spider-Man 1, there are many ways they could have fucked it up one fuckup, for example, would've been to not remove the bits where you have to play as Mary-Jane in mandatory stealth sections, and that opportunity whisked straight past Spider-Man 2 like a short-sighted territorial magpie. But I eventually concluded that I wanted to play more Spider-Man 2 I wanted to spend a few hours swinging about the city, punching crime in the teeth. I had Saturday afternoon off, and I was trying to figure out what I wanted to play you know how a sitcom wife can look at a pile of clothes the exact shape and proportions of a dead humpback whale and announce they haven't got a thing to wear? That's me with my video game collection. Let me summarize my broad feelings about Spider-Men with an anecdote. So that's fine in fact, it's mostly fine. But thankfully, it never replaces web-swinging, merely gives you an option when you run out of buildings besides taking a great big mouthful of pavement panini, and there's still enough skill involved to make it interesting. I really thought I was going to hate the new wingsuit in theory, anything that takes away from the web-swinging in Spider-Man game traversal is like focusing on the complementary sausage rolls at an artisanal bacon festival. Now, Spider-Man 1 being a perfectly decent, if somewhat cluttered game, Spider-Man Part Deux was in the awkward position of having very little to improve upon and an awful lot of things it could fuck up. "Anything to declare, besides the international terrorist militia, fleet of invisible attack planes, and pack of robot wolves?" Silly question to ask in superhero storytelling, I know might as well ask why there's no OSHA compliance preventing the inevitable burning building or exploding rollercoaster at precisely the moment where it would be very humiliating for Peter or Miles to have to declare a sudden diarrhea emergency and run off. I just wonder why no one in authority is opposing Kraven at all hell, the flipping TSA should've raised the alarm as he was coming through customs. Serious question: does New York City even have a police force? I remember them showing up once or twice at the ends of missions to arrest people, so I assume they're all waiting around the corner, going, "Give it ten minutes Spider-Man hasn't had a personal epiphany yet." I jest, of course there's also the fact that Peter continues to resemble a buff dude from the neck down and a twelve-year-old with an inexpensive barber from the neck up.Īnd while he takes pains to hide his super identity from those close to him, Miles basically blabs it to anyone he goes on a second Tinder date with not that it matters that much, since all the established villains seem to have gone straight at the outset of 2 Spider-Mans, but trouble arises when Kraven the Hunter shows up with an army of fanatics and basically occupies the city to mount a campaign of springing supervillains and challenging them to fights to the death.
