Seems that system.setTickDuration and getTickDuration are not working. My private server is running at a million miles a minute, the screeps-admin-utils turned off setTickRate and suggested system.setTickRate which also is not a function.
I've deleted the server folder and verified the install (from Steam). No dice.

@artch Any chance to update the PTR doc page with that info?
I tried last week too, and thought the same thing - maybe I'd spawned after the Monday cutoff (I don't recall exactly)? But I did wait until this week, no dice. Should have included that in the original post.
I'm trying to log into the PTR server and something seems to be bugged. I can only ever see the "New account registration is disabled on the Public Test Realm server" message when I click on items the menu to the left. The "account" dropdown looks blank, like it didn't properly migrate my account information. I can log out, but the only login that "works" (in that the menu now says "log out" instead of "log in"!) is through my Github. Attempting to log in using my email/password combo seems to "hang" - Firefox thinks that I submitted a password, since it asks if I'd like to save it, but the login popup does nothing. No error message, no login, nada.
Help?
This is a big ask and would take quite a bit of work to balance correctly.
General idea: one (or maybe two) new creep body parts, rather expensive, that allow your creeps to 'attack' enemy creeps and 'inject' your own code into them. This could be used for things like changing enemies into prisoners or slaves, or silly things like rick-rolling someone else's room. Either the same or a similar body part could be used to absorb those types of attack and defend against them.Â
This would need to be an attack only available to high-level rooms, since it'd be easy to abuse newbie rooms once you have the programming in place.
Discuss.
