Legend of Grimrock

I just rage quite this one. On level 5 there is a moving a tile/pit trap the requires too much turning to be able to see where you are going and I just can't get through it.

I get frustrated by the timing puzzles in this game pretty quickly, I'll give them a go two or three times then it just gets annoying in a game that in most other instances is pretty turn based. I know combat is real time and I got used to that, but it still moves pretty slowly. I'm worried that the precedents I'm seeing set on level 5 are just going to get worse, which sucks because I really like the game. I like the whole modernized dungeon crawler type game and while there are secrets and tricks and stuff they have been pretty consistent.

I've even gotten pretty good and circle attacking on the mobs to avoid damage (even though at times I do still want the really old school Wizardry 1 / 2 style just line up my attacks for the round and let it things go.)

But the 5th time falling through the floor, and the 2nd time after mapping out the pattern so I could get through without having to turn and see where I'm going. Frustrated in a bad way. I get frustrated at other times because I know I should be more clever and see the answer sooner, but this time, I see the answer and I can't execute it, and that is not what I signed up for.
