Just like with swappin sidechains, it seems the initial score was bumped down, so i can only get a top score of 8742, where the required amount is 8745

With the new update from today:
if you keep mutating the sidechains, you'll eventually get a Mutate Sidechains Button.
Pressing that will get you at least 8747 (as long as you have the newest update).

I have the latest update and not abale to get past 8741.
I have let the mutate sidechains button run for some time without improvement.
Did the lastest scoring mods affect the possible tutorial puzzle totals?

Have you updated recently? I am able to beat this puzzle on my test machine.

Yes, most recent update.
It turns out that if you don't follow the intended path, change a couple side-chains to get the new tool, you end up in a position where you can't complete the puzzle. I reset the puzzle to start from scratch and immediately changed two side-chains, got the tool and ran it. Puzzle completed.
So bascially don't stray to far from the intended path or you end up in a dead-end alley.
