I won't find any more solutions. I will let the program find them, which, given enough time should find every single possible solution.

Any line drawing variant is just the concept I've already outlined expanded.

So I guess my question is: Is the challenge in this finding other ways to generate solutions, even though a method that will generate all possible solutions has already been found?

I must have mis-understood you. The method you have outlined - as I understand it - definitely will not find all solutions, and I don't see how you can think it would.

Perhaps you should explain it again. It seems like you find a squiggly line, rotate it 4 times by 90 degrees, say that's a solution, do it in all possible ways, and claim that's everything.

Have I misunderstood?
