POC: energy drop duping



  • There is already another topic on this: http://support.screeps.com/hc/communities/public/questions/201412212-Multiple-Energy-Drop

    After experiencing this myself several times, I thought about using this as an actual mechanic. You can see a working POC in room W1N1.

    Whenever a creep ("victim") enters the holy square, he gets dropped down to 10 hp. On the next tick he is sacrificed to the energy gods. This ritual is rewarded with incredible amounts of energy.

    I'll let you figure out the math behind this, but it scales quite well.

    Somebody using this mechanic is pretty easy to discover, just take a look at "creep lost" on the map. But one could switch to farming keepers with this mechanic, which would be harder to detect.

    So please fix. I'll leave my POC up until then, for researching purposes 😛
