I've seen multiple reports of this since this change: http://support.screeps.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001774029-Changelog-2017-03-09 awr000 reported it on Slack this morning.   Definitely game breaking. Please resolve this asap.  

The issue is not about whether or not paying two times the amount of energy to transfer some minerals is worth it or not. I know that selling minerals might not be worth it in many places ... but it is fundamentally working just unprofitable. What I was critisizing was the haviour of energy sell orders only, since you don't actually get anything most of the time: filling a buy order: The buyer gets amount energy. The seller sends (1+transferCost)*amount energy. filling a sell order: The buyer gets/spends (1-transferCost)*amount energy. The seller sends amount energy.   The issue is that (1-transferCost) is negative for ranges above 15. It would make more sense if the transferCost would be payed as a percentage of the energy in a sell order. So that you would get 1/(1+transferCost), which would be same percentage of the transfered energy as it is in a buy order.

Since this is the same kind of issue:Creep.attack also returns -12 ERR_NO_BODYPART if the enemy is in safe mode. If it does have the bodyparts and is at full health, this code doesn't make any sense.
