Thanks you very much for your answers!

So I don't need to make a single string for my paths since I only need one direction for each ticks. I may just need to increment a value like :
i=Memory.paths[pathName].positionInc
directionToMove = Memory.paths[pathName].arrayOfDirections[i]

But when using FlowFields to move and entire army, it is better to memoryze the entire FlowField in a string since We'll need the entirety of it all the time. We don't want the retrieve 200 addresses everyticks.

One last check :
Wich one of thoses line will take more CPU ?
Game.screeps.Alin_Du_Jardin.name
Memory.screeps.Alin_Du_Jardin.name
We assume that we have a copy or Game.screeps in Memory.screeps.

"The more small objects in the Memory, the more CPU spent on its parsing." -tip

I don't really know what parsing is. I assume it has to do with the "banches". The bigger the tree the longer it takes to go to its smalles branch.

But as I am not sure I ask : Why small objects = more parsing = more CPU usage? In the sense that we should have bigger objects and less division? Example?

Thank you in advance for the replies!

Thank you very much rndr!

Also thanks you too Ross. I know I should but... For some masochistic reasons I want to debug using the vanilla IDE. If I grow a bigger colony maybe. My basic scrips are almost finished, I may start today.

I may have dreamed but I still remember being able to open a full screen UI "scrip" interface to code. But exept from extending it with the mouse I don't find anyway to have a full screen interface to code.

Am I missing something or was all of this just a dream?
