Turing Tumble

Tools

Icons	Description
	The hand tool allows you to manipulate things. Some parts can be flipped or rotated by clicking on them, and you can also drag parts and balls to different locations. Other parts like drops and turnstiles have special actions that happen when you click or drag the center. See the entries on those parts for details. Hold down control and drag to pan the view around, or just drag an empty part of the board. You can also resize the board by grabbing it by the edges.
	The erase tool removes parts from the board. You click on a part to erase / remove it.
	The Ramp tool adds a ramp to the board. It accepts a ball from both directions but it direct the ball to only one direction. You can place the ramps on the board in any direction and flip them later using the hand tool.
	The Crossover tool adds a crossover to the board. The ball enters from either side and exit from the opposite side.
	The interceptor tool adds an interceptor to the board. It catches the ball from either side and stops it from moving further.
	The bit tool adds a bit to the board. It accepts balls from either side and directs them to one side, just like a ramp. As it accepts the ball it switches so that it directs the next ball to the other direction. You can also flip bit tool using hand tool.
	The gear bit tool adds a gear bit to the board. It works similar to bit. Gear bit flip each other. We can connect them together with gears and all the connected gear bits will always point in same way.
	The gear tool adds a gear part to the board. They don’t interact with balls, all they do is connect gears together.
	The ball tool allows you to add and remove balls. If you need to add balls to the board you can select the ball tool and click it on the part of the board to add to add one and and clicking on a place where there is a ball will remove it.
	The drop tool adds a drop part to the board. Drops release balls one by one. You can add balls to the drop, and then release one by either clicking in the middle of the drop with the hand tool or using a turnstile.
	The turnstile tool adds a turnstile part to the board. Turnstiles receive balls from either side and route them to one side, but each time a ball goes through, the nearest drop will release another ball.
	The side tool adds a vertical wall to the board, which blocks balls from travelling horizontally.
	The slope tool adds angled slopes that direct balls horizontally across the board.

Actions

Icon	Description
	The schematic action toggles between physical simulation mode and schematic simulation mode. In physical mode, the parts look and act like parts of a real Turing Tumble. In schematic mode, they have a simpler look and action, but the balls should follow the same overall path as they would in physical mode.
	It is used to make the view of the board bigger.
	It is used to make the view of the board smaller.
	It zooms in or out so the whole board is showing at the largest possible size.
	It makes the simulation run faster.
	It makes the simulation run slower.
	It returns all the balls on the board to their drops.
	It opens and closes an extra toolbar with additional actions that aren’t used as much.
	It clears the board and resets it to the same standard layout as a real Turing Tumble.
	It clears the board and sets up a slightly larger version of the standard layout.
	It clears the board and sets up a slightly larger version of the standard layout.
	It removes all parts and balls from the board without changing its size
	It removes all the balls from the board but leaves all the parts in place.
	It allows you to download the game as a PNG image.
	It allows you to upload a PNG image, which will replace the entire state of the board.
