Another version of the count-up idea, where you only have to count up to one number.

Wow, that's a big number. I honestly don't know how to do this one; solving these count-up levels tends to be trial and error/intuition based, and with a number this big, it's unrealistic to do the trial and error method. Perhaps I'll figure out a trick to this at some point, but there's a decent chance I'm not gonna figure this one out.

I went and crunched the numbers on it, there are technically quite a lot of solutions, some even doing better than the given Master Key count. There's a lot of layers to unpack, but there is a general strategy for this problem which, while not giving the perfect sequence (as there are several), will still give you something good enough to solve it.

Well, that was maddening.

The good news is I can definitely solve other puzzles of this kind assuming similar tolerance levels. However, you said there are more optimized ways to solve this level, and I don't know if anyone could find the most optimal solution on purpose.

I need a special cipher to encode the solution. Convert 939482453 to binary, then execute the resulting instructions as green=1, purple=0

Right back atcha:

Was about to blow a gasket, but then I realized the common denominator and went back to chill mode. Employed the exact same strategy I used for my own version of the puzzle and it managed to get me exactly enough to solve your variant.

An easy way to actually wreck these puzzles is to make the blast doors combo doors with one extra one lock. I tried that, but didn't bother to solve or save the level because pain.

I'm back, and I made the level you feared!
