Your energy is too low, but if you could only reach the fractal reactor cores...

all emitters are 0.5, 2, 1 (the default settings in map editor)

Annoying.

You have to move the city very early in the game.

why intensity 1 emitters are annoying?

are the reactors just here to waste time trying to get them? I can't connect to them even flying over them with stuff...

I dont think this map is winnable without getting to the reactors. The hardest part is the beginning, as you can build only six items on the platform, and its only 1 elevation higher than the ground (you will get flooded soon).

But there is a place with better height. You just need to deal with a few squatters.

yeah I don't think you could do it without the reactors either. my problem was I was building things by the reactors but they would not connect I saw were i thought i should build and I was right. it just wasn't working for some reason when i restarted my pc it worked..... beat it and posted time as SAM thanks for the map

I had the same bug, the reactors would not connect even when I built a collector right next to them.

the good news is that the map is beatable without the reactors, It just took me a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time.

(although some of that time was just leaving the program running while my 300 unit battery stack slowly charged)

Funny. I ran the map twice, tested it several times during design, and it connected. There is a bug with the crazonium walls, that at certain angles it will block the line one way but not another.

Correct, this is a known bug, see here (http://knucklecracker.com/forums/index.php?topic=3006.0).

It should have been resolved in the latest version however, see here (http://knucklecracker.com/forums/index.php?topic=4498.msg22427#msg22427).

If you didn't upgrade with the latest patch, please do so. When you believe the problem remains, please post in the first mentioned topic. :)
