You can use mortars to compel your enemies to rush into your kill boxes. It does, however, force you to place these installations farther apart or else they will block LOF at higher angles as the enemy approaches. It is also important to note that mortars can be an alternative to having a surplus of snipers. The extra wall length gives the inferno canon rockets something to hit well before your colonist, helping decrease the odds that it will land next to your pawn and spread fire all around them. To help deal with those I make penis shaped defensive walls (s = sandbag, x = wall) The troubling ones early game are the big ones with the inferno canon since it spreads fire over such a large area. Mechs will gladly sit in the open firing back if there's nothing for them to take cover on. Also make sure that the firing lane is clear of trees and other cover.

A more simple and efficient method is to build a standalone power conduit nearby, that is unpowered/not connected, that the machine can connect to from a click of a button. Early on it might not be cost effective against a small poison ship, but later on you'll at least get the resources back and if it's a psychic ship the AI module will more than pay for the explosives. 5 IEDs should down every single one of them. Then when you shoot the ship the mechs will all appear in the one open tile and trigger the explosives.

Then plant 5 explosive IEDs in a plus sign shape with one prong in the open space in the wall. Surround the ship with walls but leave one tile open. Mid-late game I'm a fan of the ship-in-an-explosive-box strategy.
