Obsidian Hints
What should I do with the waves?
1 of 10: Those waves look a bit choppy.
2 of 10: They even look a bit unnatural.
3 of 10: Real waves would flow together a bit more smoothly than the ones here.
4 of 10: That's what you need to do -- make the waves flow together smoothly.
5 of 10: Try moving your cursor over the waves. Notice that they stop?
6 of 10: And if you click on a section of waves (they're in a 3x3 grid), it will advance one step.
7 of 10: All you need to do is position the waves so that they're all in sync with each other.
8 of 10: The three squares in a row should flow together, and when a wave leaves one row, it should start to appear on the next row.
9 of 10: I recommend working just on one column first. Once you think you have the flow from row to row established, you can make the waves in the other columns match the first one.
10 of 10: You might also want to move your cursor off the grid until a wave is about to leave a row, since it makes it a lot easier to work on the puzzle if you can see how the waves cross the grid. To get all of the connections correct, you may need to start and stop the waves a couple of times.
