Description Yaakov M. Nemoy 2007-10-01 21:43:01 UTC 
Version:           1.0 (using KDE 3.5.7, Debian Package 4:3.5.7.dfsg.1-7 (lenny/sid))
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.21-2-686

In two scenarios, I can solve the puzzle using less tubes than given, although the game won't register the puzzle as solved.  I have two snapshots of this.

(I don't see a field to attach them.)

Comment 3 Fela Winkelmolen 2007-10-18 19:48:47 UTC 
A game is won only if all Terminals _and_ all cables are connected to the server. But it would be better if such scenarios weren't generated.

I have also found such a puzzle on the easy level.
Comment 5 Steven R. 2008-02-04 02:17:13 UTC 
Happened to me too on version 2 on the medium difficulty.   The game should be considered solved if all the computers are hooked up, not if all the pipes are in the correct orientation.

oops... I was wrong, it was harder than I tought to identify all such games. Bug reopened

SVN commit 792546 by fela:

If all terminals are connected but not all cables, show a message box explaining to the user that to 
win the game all cables need to be connected too.
