[Market] Get orders for X resource method.

    I think it would be wise to add API support for pre-ordered list of resources-filtered market orders.

    I think a lot of people do the following:

    Game.market.getAllOrders({resourceType:INSERT_RESOURCE_HERE});

    This requires all items to be iterated over and over again, even if there is only 1 order for a certain resource. I think it would be wise to add a pre-filtered, per resource.

    This pre-processing of data costs about 6 CPU now for me, of the total of 7.80 CPU which is currently required by my "market order engine".

    if this is done once for all players I think we could all benefit from it.

     

    I'd love for it to have the same sort of cache as Room.find method.

    Agreed.

     

    While you're at it, I'd love the same for ID. I don't understand why Game.getObjectById() doesn't return anything for a market order. I shouldn't have to iterate getAllOrders to find a single ID.
