Competitions / Re: Weekly Seed #113 [Beta 5] [Seed: AlienHammerFactory]

Score: 11441, died in -4/Factory.

I've been trying to do combat builds, and I've never made it past sublevel -4. I seem to do fine, until the alert gets too high and I get a constant stream of enemies sent after me keeping me in the same spot until I lose all my parts. Do I need to be switching away from treads to a faster propulsion so I can run away or at least keep moving while fighting?

This run I went to

Zion, got imprinted and decided to try out the Storm Laser. I was able to run it pretty well with a Cold Fusion Reactor and Imp. Cooling System, with a battery in inventory just in case. Is this a "noob trap" weapon? It seems pretty good for when you get it, but maybe the cost of being 4 slots and the parts to support it is too great.

Looking at my scoresheet it seems I was fighting too close to a garrison, so next time I'll definitely avoid that. I also moved too quickly through Materials and didn't end up finding any Large Storage, so had some inventory space issues.
