Okay, I'd be willing to bet there are similar map layouts to this one.
It started as a simple idea and kept getting less simple until...after like WAY too much caffeine...things just started getting...weird.
A fun slog to the totems with limited placement for initial resources and pretty colors!

haven't finished it yet, but I'm working on it. So far I really love the map.
At first, my set up looks like a bunch of random stuff, but it's actually a very odd type of symmetry.
EDIT: I beat it, and I was so close to beating your score! I lost the upper right totem, and it took me a while to get it back. :( I might try to beat it again later.

Nice one!

I will second Ebon : the symmetry gave cool connexions and packet patterns.

I had some trouble gauging the strenght of the emmitors, so I built too much reactors in the beggining, ensuing an average score.

Thanks Drew!

Even with my rotational symetry, I swear, some of those emitters under the upgrades were different intensities... Some of them were easy to keep back and some of them were a pain in the butt.... That, and I was able to easily get all the totems... Except the top left one.
