Star map on Manaan

[MasterN64]

Here's the skinny. I need to get rid of that giant shark gaurding the Star Map on Manaan without toxicating the shark. (Jeez, just i get banned from Manaan if i toxicate it!). Now i know you have to destroy the machinery to make it go away but i can figure out how!!!! I fill the containers using the kolto comp but nothing happens! theres no self destruct or anything!!! plz help!!!

 

thx in advance,

It's yet another mathematical puzzle (and you thought you would NEVER have a use for math back when you were in school!). There are two containers you have controls for in the panel display: a small that holds 3 million sangren and a large that holds 5 million sangren. The object is to get the large one to hold exactly 4 million sangren. So:

 

Fill the small container up-- 3 in the small, 0 in the large.

Transfer from small to large-- 0 in the small, 3 in the large.

Fill the small container up-- 3 in each.

Transfer from small to large-- 1 in the small, 5 in the large (it can't hold any more)

Empty the large container-- 1 in the small, 0 in the large

Transfer from small to large-- 0 in the small, 1 in the large.

Fill small container up again-- 3 in the small, 1 in the large.

Transfer from small to large-- 0 in the small, 4 in the large.

 

BOOM!

2 steps faster:

 

 

1. Fill the Container Pod. (container = 5 parts)

2. Transfer from Container to Injector. (container = 2, injector = 3)

3. Dump the Injector Pod. (container = 2, injector = 0)

4. Transfer from Container to Injector. (container = 0, injector = 2)

5. Fill the Container Pod. (container = 5, injector = 2)

6. Transfer from Container to Injector. (container = 4, injector = 3)
