Talk:Tooth Trap/@comment-5344791-20140517024611

I build my panic rooms without walls.

Put a firepit at the center, and surround it with tooth traps. 32 should be enough to have 2 complete rings around the pit, but don't worry too much about how their arranged. I find 32-40 traps to be enough for any hound attack.

Having a lot of walls leaves you with a lot of repair work to do, and if the bad guys aren't taking damage while they are demolishing your walls, there isn't much point.

If you hide in some inner room, you can end up with multiple hounds in there with you, and nowhere to run to. In open space, you can actually run from hounds indefinately, since when they catch up to you they bite and miss while you keep running towards pigs or tentacles or whatever.
