Loot T. Take Generator with you. Tunnel to L. Get supplies from the rover and outside. Don't even bother going inside. Tunnel back to T. Drive to Dam. Enter S. Recharge rover/get supplies. Should have max fuel cells. Drive to A. Use fuel cells and generator to charge power block. At least how I did it. Been stuck taking the long way to A as well since my non follow the tracks route forgot it exists.
Edit: Just noticed a 4.028 download. Very nice.
Well I crunched the numbers and found that its actually faster to go from Santorini, to the Dam, then the Dam to Astrape. You might save power by going the Santorini to Astrape route, but its faster to go the other way. With only one loop (so the 1.2x multiplier), you save about ~2.5 minutes of time going to dam then to Astrape, rather than Santorini to Astrape.
However, I never figured out how to get the optimized route for Santorini to Astrape, so its possible with the optimized route, its actually faster.
