Welcome,

That depends on how you want to get to shard 2. If you click re-spawn you will lose all your rooms/claims on Shard 3, and will beable to respawn anywhere else you should choose including in 'respawn areas'.

However, if you do not want to lose your Shard3 rooms you can do multi-sharding. Bordering your respawn area there are rooms with no controllers generally referred to as 'highway' rooms. Crossroads of these highway borders contain portals to other shards Shard 3 -> Shard 2, Shard 2 -> Shard 1 or Shard 2, and so on.

When a creep steps on the portal, it is transported to the other shard, only retaining its body and name. It will get a new ID and will have no Memory. You will have to set up a system to restore/initialize new memory for it.

As well your code as you have it now will also run on Shard 2, if you have hard-coded references these may break as you don't have the same things on Shard 2 as Shard 3. You'll need to account for this as well.

Similar to claiming other rooms, you need to send a creep with at least 1 claim part though the portal and into a room to claim on the other shard, then send builder creeps to build the spawn.

Its a fun challenge. Good luck.

I'd suggest joining slack and heading to the #help channel, lots of people there who can assist and its a bit more dynamic.

I assume your talking about https://screeps.com/a/#!/room/shard3/E43N11

Its hard to tell from such a small snipit, you may find you get a bit more dynamic help on Slack in #help. Its probably going to come down to how you are tracking the number of builders. If your just Filtering for 'living' creeps and going off that count for both spawns without adding the new creep into the roles then yes, it'll be off. Have to account for it with your code, either by 'adding' the new creep to the list your using, or changing up how you spawn.

From what I recall you are correct. Orders can be inactive but still viable. If there's no amount (room in terminal) for it for example I believe it goes inactive until there is room. Extending an order as well I believe when its out of remainingAmount can re-activate old ones.

You can test to be sure by checking on the status of your order(s) before the ticks end once you create them, or next tick.

You can also add some additional checks to make absolutely sure its one you want to delete, delete them less often or, maybe at the start of the tick instead.

Do you mean to the main server or to a private server? I know you don't have to use steam to access the main server as you can log-in / play via a browser. However I don't know if the private server can be run w/o steam internet access.

@o4kapuk ?

Without knowing what your tower code looks like it would be hard to say why they did not shoot at him. As W4rl0ck already stated creeps with work parts can dismantle structures, which is actually more effective than an attack part.

Dismantle: Dismantles a structure for 50 hits per tick returning 0.25 energy unit per tick.

Attack: Attacks another creep/structure with 30 hits per tick in a short-ranged attack.

Their also correct about the strength of your walls, that creep that attacked you had 25 work parts, so 25*50 = 1250 damage per tick to your wall.

You could also go to Slack and ask in the help channel about your code for assistance if you don't wish to post it here.

I use something similar but don't assign it that way, did you try it without toString?

Ex of it working in mine:

this.spawnCreep([MOVE,MOVE,MOVE,MOVE,MOVE,MOVE,MOVE,MOVE,MOVE,MOVE,MOVE,MOVE,MOVE,MOVE,MOVE,MOVE], ('towTruck'+Math.floor(Math.random()*1000)),{memory:{home: this.room.name, role: 'towTruck', cooldownTimer: 5}});

or for some reason the variable isn't defined yet when console is executed but can't imagine why.

You can control as many rooms as you have GCL (Global Control Level) to do so, currently on the live server you seem to be GCL 1, meaning you can control / build in the one room you spawned in.

Once you hit GCL 2 you can then claim another room with a creep with at least one CLAIM part. Once claimed, you can build / upgrade this room as well.

The level of the controller will depend on what you can build there, see: Docs: Control for more information. You can see your GCL on the overview tab by the way, or by calling it w/ Game.gcl['level']

I've had something similar happen if not the same where if I try and click on a memory to expand it when I'm on the over-world view or transitioning into a room it will freeze or not load, then any subsequent attempts to expand that particular memory will always fail and just seem like its loading forever.

I've been able to fix it on chrome by clearing the browsing data which then acts like its the first time I've logged in but everything works after re logging in.

Great news! This is actually been implemented already, though its phrased as 'pulling'.
