<![CDATA[Issues with PTR and Training/Custom modes]]>On PTR, Shard 0, rooms do not appear to be running or ticks are not being processed. TTL are not counting down on structures and creeps are not spawning. Even after registering for 24 hours of full CPU, no CPU is being used.

From the live world, in the training room and the custom room, declaring global variables (by setting a variable equal to something without using something like const or var) outside of the main loop, outside of the main file (such as in an includes file declaring roles) is resulting in an undefined error for the variable attempting to be declared.

With the combination of these two, players appear to be without a test environment unless they re-spawn onto shard 1.

Thanks!

I thought PTR was completely dead and didn't realize that it's working on shard1. Either way I have some code I'd like to test on PTR before deploying but with it being dead for the last week that's been problematic.

From the live world, in the training room and the custom room, declaring global variables (by setting a variable equal to something without using something like const or var) outside of the main loop, outside of the main file (such as in an includes file declaring roles) is resulting in an undefined error for the variable attempting to be declared.

Declaring variables without var or const is considered bad practice. Use global.myGlobalVar = ... instead.

The global. suggestion resolved my issue in the simulation rooms.

Seems that I was looking in the wrong tab and the high ticks still appear to be there. Thanks!
