I got some starting problems on level 1, like the panel in den command room (06:20) and the cyborg assassin that can't be hurt with tranquilizer darts (7:02). I was forced to use the gas-grenade instead, which was supposed to be used after leaving the elevator on level 2 (11:06) - but the berserk-patch worked fine. Security level of 90% was required or else I couldn't open the force door to alpha or switch cyborg conversion. It's possible to fire the dart-pistol by pushing "enter" on the keyboard when viewing a observation screen (bug). I could destroy the computer notes from there, but I needed the first random Reactor Destruction Code Digit of that room. I saved some time by getting killed after destroying the notes again (09:24). It was a cat jump from the cyborg conversion chamber to the elevator. The short visit of the healing machine raped some time again. I needed around 9 minutes for level 1!
I switched on the power for the lights of beta quadrant located in alpha quadrant. The SCI-access card from beta quadrant was needed to receive the Isotope-X22. I destroyed the computer notes for the next random digit and left level 2 in under 7 minutes. I was using the anti-damage-shield v.1 for the rest of the run. I mistakenly traveled to level 3 at (18:00). The way through the reactor level was planned ahead, since I was missing a key-card for some doors there. To die in the reactor room was the only way to return to level 2 again in a shorter time. The laser activation room itself was piece of cake.
