  Up the construction site cap

  One idea I used some time ago (originally to let me schedule building for after I reached a new RCL) was flags. I would place a flag designating the location and type of construction site, then my code would automatically set up construction sites whenever it could. This could also be used to overcome the construction site cap.

  @tigga My original thought behind the sniper was that it would actually be very effective at killing shielded creeps by doing that 1000 damage, but it fires one extremely expensive (like 10k power or something) as its entire capacity

  Another modification of the idea would be that every 1000 ticks, a certain amount of GCL progress is given out split between every player who successfully reached the obelisk with a claim creep in the last 1000 ticks. This would make it beneficial for even a single successful attack against the obelisk holder, while still encouraging the defense of the obelisk to increase personal reward.

  @crusher48 if you create a storage unit using the simulation controls (rather than building it) then it will have minerals in it already. You can destroy and replace the storage if you need more.

  I've not had auto-complete bug out, but it just pops up when i'm typing something as I press enter, and now my command has changed to whatever stupid thing was at the top of the auto-complete list! I would support this product or service

  Only allow 1 order per resource per room on the market

  Just wanted to add that if such a limit is added, it has to be at least two orders per resource type. It should be perfectly viable to have both a sell-order and buy-order. That said, I do not think this is a problem.

  I think that would remove a lot of the strategy around room selection.

  @mrfaul In order for your idea to work we'd need to run a separate container for every user to manage their resources usage, with instant startup, in an environment of thousands synchronized users. So my point still stands - the complexity of such a system makes it not even a major refactor, but a huge R&D project with uncertain results.

  Syncing the server to steam cloud might not work so well, you could sync db.json, but beyond that it could have issues. However, you can also host the server on a vm or cloud provider to have a central place for it.

  According to https://developer.github.com/apps/building-oauth-apps/scopes-for-oauth-apps, there doesn't appear to be a read-only scope for repository code.

  This would be a nice addition. On the subject of invader spawning, it would be nice to be able to spawn invaders in a room that I had reserved as well as one I had owned. Unless there is a good reason not too, that I cant think of.

  How about the TTL penatly is removed on claimers? It's going to be really hard to make an outpost when you're limited to a 5-7 room radius around the portal.

  @dissi Yes, that's why there's a timer on the despawning so that if the player has an ally capable of rebuilding them, they can be rebuilt. Note that all that is needed to delay the timer is 1 progress on any spawn construction site for the player.
