Welcome to Bansoko!

You are a scavenger. You collect cargo that people have left in abandoned ships in deep space. It's a dangerous job, that's why we're using robots.

Your goal is to use a remotely controlled robot to push all crates to cargo bays. Remember, you can only push them (you cannot pull) Fortunately, in case of a mistake, you can undo as many steps as you need.

Good luck!
