− | Because of that, trap chokepoints like this one are effective. Enemies will prefer to use the corridors rather than attempting to destroy doors as it would be more time consuming, and being unable to see the traps, they will trip them hopelessly. On the other hand, your colonists can safely pass using the door instead. Enemies cannot pass doors unless they destroy them first, or they are being held open. | + | Because of that, trap chokepoints like this one are effective.

Fill it with [[Straw matting]]s, and flammable objects such as wooden [[barricade]]s, it have good hp which means it will burn a longer time and high flammability so it will catch fire quickly. Another alternative is to use tainted clothing. |

Temperatures can rapidly reach {{Temperature|500}} or above, boiling both the insects and the hives. Even those that don't get set alight will eventually succumb to heatstroke. |
