  Ah cool, I'm missing some flags now though Can we get a fresh copy? I think the conversion might have been off (missing flags in E9N11 and  E9N12 )

  Since I'm not developing Screeps' bots anymore and not following the game very much, then NhanHo was willing to take over the Typescript API project. You can still use the same library. It was just transferred to NhanHo. I will still continue to support the skeleton app.

  Properties of each of the structures clearly highlight the semantics of the work of this structure. If some structure works with energy only, adding a `store` property containing the sole `energy` property and incapable of containing any other properties would confuse the API user. This structure just needs energy to work, it has no “storage” to store anything, it’s just an energy device. So this API expresses structure functions in a more consistent and clear way. As for the labs, they can’t contain more than one type of minerals, and this also should be evident from the API. You just shouldn’t interpret different structures in the same way as you work with their objects. Especially because they should be handled differently from the gameplay viewpoint.

  If you mean creating extractor construction site, this is fixed now. But constants were defined, the problem was about createConstructionSite method.

  Don't use the source ID, use flags and their ID, that's their primary purpose

  Well, thank you for that, at least. That takes the point out of the strongly-worded post I was just about to make. For other readers, in case you're wondering: I accidentally made all my reservers stop working, and the novice area appeared just an hour and a half after the last reservation ran out (while I was asleep, as it happened). Seemed almost like the powers-that-be had been waiting to spring into action to lock out my rooms, but I guess it was just bad timing (and not checking the history when they really should've). (And, well, as long as we're examining the wording of the other post, I would still like to point out that it says "reserved rooms are also excluded", implying that reserved rooms and mined rooms are on equal footing when it comes to novice area selection.)

  @Amadox - I'd personally agree that ramparts should start a little higher if they are going to decay so quickly, but its also not too hard to prioritize repairing ramparts with less than 1000 hits over other things, if you're building a new rampart there isn't really a reason you need to repair anything else first. I use something like this:  var upgradeTarget = creep.pos.findClosestByRange(FIND_STRUCTURES, { filter: function(object) {   return object.structureType == STRUCTURE_RAMPART && object.hits < 1000; } }); Granted with a lot of structures in a room this can be somewhat CPU intensive so I only search for them when a flag is set in the room to indicate that new ramparts or walls have been built and I remove the flag when the search comes up with nothing left. I also have the same creep building and repairing so there isn't downtime between the built rampart and the repairing of it. Unless I'm building 100 new ramparts.. maybe one day soon. I'm sure there's probably better ways to do it.

  I basically did the simulation with waves of attackers until I was able to make it to level 6 or so, I didn't really pump the controller at all in simulation but it would have been nice if I had a little of that working. That said, it wouldn't have been a problem if I started in the world a little earlier because you have some time before the walls come down around your room. Just expect if you start in the world that you'll want code to build up walls and pump up the controller. If you start in a room with some buffer most likely you won't be disturbed till you have a tower. Just make sure you're working toward that (i.e. controller level 3).

  Ah, that explains. My code suddenly started spamming "Could not build" in the logs with an unknown error code. Sorry for spoiling the fun. Thanks a lot for introducing this feature, it's currently working as intended.
