  Can we just rename the spawn in an easier way instead of destorying and rebuilding it?

  Well for one you do not want your code to rely on hardcoded names precisely for the reason you just described. Things happen and spawns get destroyed, your code should be able to handle things like that. That said I do not know why spawns could not be renamed. It's odd that it's the only structure that actually requires a name to begin with.

  Alternatively this could also be a creep feature to transfer something from one storage to another without putting it in it's own cargo for a tick. The max amount of transfered material could still be the current free cargo of the creep for balancing reasons

  why don't you upgrade it a bit before it expires? I have done that in the past with sending one upgrader. but I think that was when one upgrade resetted the whole timer I think .. don't know if it is still feasible.

  ++ to all this. Ruins are a super useful input to my auto build/repair system, but they're significantly less useful if their timeToDecay can't be relied upon.

  @jumpp ruin.structure is an instance of Structure or OwnedScructure which means they can't have any properties of a specific structure type including level.

  I think it would be pretty easy to identify areas in rooms that would for example qualify to be displayed as a sea instead of a stone isle. @tigga it could be a wall tile from the terrain type and a different api could reveal the type of the "wall"... besides stone and water maybe more visually different types would be possible. If you don't like it named "TERRAIN_MASK_WALL" they could name it different and keep an alias with the WALL name. maybe they use the already existing TERRAIN_MASK_LAVA in the future.

  I've changed my mind I don't think container up sizing is worth the disruption. However, double the number of containers might allow for some new and interesting solutions, especially in SK rooms. 10 remote containers cost 5 energy per tick to upkeep, but allows for more CPU efficient hauling. I think that is an interesting tradeoff. Currently you need 8 sources in range to feed a T3 boosted 40 CARRY. Double the number of containers means you could feed it with 4 single source rooms where each source has 8 containers. Running the hauler less often is easier but efficiently mining out a source into 8 containers as worthy trade off. Caravans have two problems. One is buffering between trips. But I find the second to be a bigger issue. Caravans don't offer any advantages over 5 single haulers. If we tweaked the pulling mechanic to allow for single intent caravan movement that would give me a reason to use caravans.

  @deft-code said in Market for CPU Bucket: Highly efficient code bases have some of cool-stuff tricks. Since they consume less cores they have a great cool-stuff/core ratio I think ultimately every bot caps out at 300 CPU, any improvements in efficiency in the bot work out to more or less server load based merely on how effectively the 0.2 CPU intent cost maps onto underlying server costs.

  @deft-code Shoutout to https://screeps.com/forum/topic/2646/discussion-more-structures-in-unowned-rooms/1 I definitely feel that more serious investment in unowned rooms would open up a lot of combat options, and make unboosted creeps usable in offense.

  Fantastically difficult to implement as a general solution since you'll need to be sharing DB objects between different servers with different users etc. Possible but a ton of work. Doesn't make that much sense considering you wouldn't have an account on that server, and no GCL/cpu to run it, and even your code wouldn't be there. Can work around all of it but I think shards fill the role a little better than this.
