Petpet Park Plot Mission 2: Hifflo in Shenkuu

Your first Mission is to rescue the "Hifflo" from "Shenkuu".

We start this mission by trecking to Shenkuu.

We are confronted with a opal.

Click "Turn the opal..."

Hold the opal and drag the mouse left or right, it will turn.
Click the window and a light will shine through, try to make the light reflect onto the 3 circles on the large ring to the right.
If you don't manage to get all 3 in 8 attempts, the puzzle will reset.
There is no true pattern to this puzzle so you will have to guess, the maths just doesn't add up no matter how many times I do it.
However see the bottom of this screen for an alternative method.

When you have lit all 3, congrats, you have saved the Hifflo!

Alternate Method:

Notes:

• There are 12 different positions for the opal.
• You have 8 attempts before it resets.
• Beam is what we will call each point on the wall.
• The position of the opal to the points is almost random.

Assuming these numbers, go to the page address:
http://www.neopets.com/petpetpark/ppx/mission2_data.phtml?opal=1
Note the number at the end of the address, ?opal=#

On the following page you will note data like what is shown below.

<data><moon>3</moon>
 <opal>5</opal>
 <beam>6</beam>

 <gem1>1</gem1>
 <gem2>1</gem2>
 <gem3>0</gem3>
 <portal>0</portal>

 <reset_puzzle>0</reset_puzzle>
</data>

<gem1>1</gem1> Indicates we have found Gem 1.
<gem3>0</gem1> Indicates we have not found Gem 3.
For each "opal" number there is a "beam" number.
Though the numbers are random peices are usually order.
Example:

Opal	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8
Beam	4	5	6	7	8	12	1	2

As in the table below, Gems 1,2 & 3 will be found by Beams 2, 6 & 10 respectively.
So by changing the number at the end of the link above, we can guess more accurately how to win.

Gem Table
Gem 1	Top Right	Beam 2
Gem 2	Bottom	Beam 6
Gem 3	Top Left	Beam 10

Once all 3 Gems are marked with a 1, you have won and can continue to:

The end.
