    API Changes


  • I like the gameplay changes, it feels like they streamline the game.


    1. Room.find documentation is missing FIND_DROPPED_RESOURCES
    2. RoomPosition.lookFor() documentation is missing a way to search for these resources as well.
    3. Structure's structureType is missing details on all the new types of added structure constants in documentation.
    4. Controller level document will need to be updated since it's the only place we can see how many of each structure we can build at each controller level. Is there a reason this isn't available in the structure section of the API?

    I don't see any details on how having additional extensions then what is allowed by the above changes is going to be handled.


  • What happens to the extensions we have above 60 when the PTR change is implemented on live?

    @Vision They will be disabled depending on their distance from the controller in the same way as it works on the PTR.
