Part 3 in my puzzle map series. Are you clever enough to solve this? Your hint is: "Let's water those daisies!" -- INFO: This is a puzzle map that requires a different approach than usual gameplay. Don't be disappointed if you can't solve it at first time, you can find some help in the forum. The only CRPL script is used for the images, does not affect gameplay at all. -- #puzzle #noCRPL #difficult #hardcore #runner #spore #inhibitor

Additional hint #1:
Spoiler
Even if you know what to do, that ore resourcepack is hardly sufficient, you will need to gather more ore, and quickly...

Additional hint #2:
Spoiler
Collectors are free. There are 6 totems. Time is everything. Combine these facts.

Additional hint #3:
Spoiler
Don't forget that build and resupply speed greatly depends on the total distance that a packet has to travel.

Fun fact:

Though I didn't intend this, you can complete this map in a standard, long way as well. I haven't tried but the scoreboard suggests this.

Hi Tyler, just finished this map for 21 minutes total. Is this standard way? In this case could you show me the fast replay?

Well, the 'standard' way (=firepower) is the long way. In my other maps you would definitely lose if you applied the standard way but I made this one somewhat easy.

The intended and tricky walkthrough should be around 2 minutes but I won't show it to you. If you can figure it out, it is much more fun. Hints, including the one in the description are very important.

I guess I catch the idea with your hint. Will try it this week.
