Documentation describes room event data returned by room.getEventLog() for event type EVENT_BUILD as follows

https://docs.screeps.com/api/#Room.getEventLog

EVENT_BUILD	A creep performed build in the room.
targetId - the target object ID
amount - the amount of build progress gained
energySpent - the energy amount spent on the operation

the actual event data in game contains the following:

targetId,
amount,
structureType
x,
y,
incomplete: boolean // gets set to true, if this action completed the site build

// oneliner with lodash
const bodyCost = _.sum([WORK,MOVE,CARRY], b => BODYPART_COST[b]);

@Coelso Thanks, but calling getObjectById and using the said objects is not the problem. I have a problem with Game.getObjectById(id:string) giving me a warning, for it is marked obsolete. Surely there must be a way for constructing a proper Id parameter for this call from a string + list of known types?

  let dismantleObject:Structure<BuildableStructureConstant>|undefined;

            while(target.anchorRoom!.$roomCache.dismantle.ids.length > 0 && !dismantleObject){
                try{
                    const id = target.anchorRoom!.$roomCache.dismantle.ids.shift()!;
                    dismantleObject = Game.getObjectById(id) as Structure<BuildableStructureConstant>;
                    if (dismantleObject){
                        target.anchorRoom!.$roomCache.dismantle.ids.unshift(id);
                    }
                }catch(e){
                    this.logError(`ERROR ${e}`);
                }
            }

            if (!dismantleObject){
                return;
            }

            worker.moveTo(dismantleObject, {range: 1});
            dismantleObject.notifyWhenAttacked(false);
            const res = worker.dismantle(dismantleObject);
            this.log(`${worker.name} dismantle res:${res}`);

Map visuals are great. However, one has failed to locate a facility for enabling the map visuals permanently in the steam client. The map visuals are disabled again, once one enters the room and returns to the world map by perusing the "World" button.

OK, let one rephrase one's question. Imagine one was storing a bunch of id-s, let's say for structures to be maintained, and imagine that this list would include walls and ramparts.
How would one go about invoking the magicks of getObjectById of this list w/o incurring the wrath of tslint (pbuh)?

@jbyoshi said in Id<T>:

How?

Browser : brave

RE: "@types/screeps": "^3.2.1",

How does Game.getObjectById(id: Id < T>): T | null; work - how does one construct the id parameter? the obsolete warning of Game.getObjectById(id: string): T | null; is triggering one's PSTD;

There is nothing wrong with the so-called "unfairness". Shard0 subscriptions should be increased in price by 37%.

NO

yeah, agree with @Tigga , looking at github/engine code makes me believe, that the same mechanism may be in use at MMO server side and addressing the issue may give a boost to overall performance of all the shards.

@adeptofnone Move to Techincal Issues & Bugs kthx bye

NO

Structure.isActive() is extremely expensive due to the inefficient implementation, so one has stopped using it. The effect is extremely pronounced in a room with a lot of rampart structures present. One believes, that the same algorithm is used in the server side for determining the active structures and refactoring the code responsible for determining the active structures vs the controller level, would give a significant boost to the servers' performance.
