When trying to beat Kovarex's kill count I noticed the biters where getting stuck. Probably too many for the pathfinder?

Yeah, they normally create these large clusters while they're still preparing for the attack. When you pollute enough, the newly spawned ones on the outside are blocking the ones ready to attack on the inside.

I still get about 200 biters per minutes despite these clusters, but it seems that those clusters also keep getting bigger (despite me not polluting more), so it's probably a bit of an issue. Really more of a problem with the scenario spawning/wave mechanics than the pathfinder I'd say.

yeah, if you cancel the research and try to hold as much as you can it can get pretty bad
