This is a really tough map! I cannot figure out how to keep the creeper back at the start. I've read the comments but it is impossible. Did you tweek this lately to make it more difficult or something?

This is what I did many months ago....

Spoiler

Pause the game. Turn off the green and red packets. Create a collector that reaches the mortars and set OC to fly to the center. Unpause. In the center you will need to hover until that collector is made and than you will have to touch down for a second. This will allow you to then move the SAMs to the top of the screen. Don't foget to turn on the red packets and disable the mortars... at least initially

BTW, I set OC down on the right side

I wont say more so that you can enjoy this map ;)

I seem to be the only one who kept OC where it was to beat this map.

I'm thinking about making videos for this series, a lot of people have had trouble with nearly all of these maps.

That would be cool... I have tinkered a little with making videos, but haven't quite yet.

I've never done much with videos really, does any one know how to speed a video up???

I stand corrected. Thanks for the input saying the map could not be changed. It challenged me to keep on going and I learned something! Now I think this is an excellent and well balanced map that is a great challenge--now gonna test my skills on number 6.

glad you like it! Have you beaten 1-4 yet? And be warned... They get harder as they go on. Though I misbalanced number 7 by raising the emitters.
