For this map some delicate trimming is needed so I used the second to largest brush size.

Okay, thanks - I'll give that a try. :)

My mistake on the first few attempts was creating too much digi. When i just put digi between the emitter and the totem I could get to it a lot easier.

This map was great since it taught me something I hadn't realized about PAC maps before.  I'd always just slathered digi everywhere, but it's amazing how it can help move creeper in a particular direction. Thanks!

Whew, you lot are amazingly helpful - I finally completed it! Yay! :D

Clever map, J! :)

and once the digi has grown there it decreases the terrain level with 1.

That wasn't the case for me.

Fun map, though. I couldn't figure out how to split the middle until I noticed that spores were so strong. :)

You don't see that the terrain immediatly decreases, but internally the game subtracts one from the terrain level if there's digi present (the blue kind, not the grey stuff that indicates where it can grow).

In PAC maps the grey digi growth area costs one creeper to build and you can 'sell' it for one creeper. If you watch carefully when placing digi you can see this happen. Hit T to remove the digigrowth and the creeper level will raise.

Very nice map. This map indeed teaches to place Digitalis carefully.

Hard mode: Finish this map without ever removing any Digitalis. (it is possible!)
