The most important thing for me would be a delay before the next season, I feel it should be a month minimum, I have really enjoyed this one but I think a good break is needed to prevent burn out. Also I like the idea of a gentler/co-op based season to help engage new players that others have mentioned. Really like 'the great road' and 'king of the hill' ideas

I personally feel the power creep is too large, I think it should be the same size or only slightly larger than a regular creep. I get that you want to differentiate it from regular creeps but the way it overlaps other objects looks funny.

I have an issue on this ptr build when trying to change the coordinates or a room position. When I change the x coordinate I have no issues but when I change the y strange things happen. I reproduced this problem on both private server and ptr with the following code: let pos = Game.rooms['W3N8'].getPositionAt(25,25); pos.y += 1; console.log(pos) -> [room W3N8 pos 27,0]

@orlet said in Workflow tips and prioritization for new players?:

so effectively capped at 15e/tick. There's no much way to get past that outside of boosting

Why don't you make a prayer room?

@eduter Good things come to those who wait

@geir1983 they changed it to PWR_REGEN_MINERAL etc i think

@geir1983 I was actually able to spawn one, not sure what the problem with your case is

@geir1983 I haven't got an RCL 8 yet, i'll let you know if I can but sounds like it has problems for sure

@eduter It doesn't make sense to limit yourself by not using surrounding resources, especially if you have cpu to spare. I think bot arena is valuable advice. However I think processing as many resources as your cpu will allow is the best route to growth. I would be interested if your solution improves as your GCL goes up. It may be that having as many rooms as possible is the most efficient solution so at some point neglecting remotes may be a suitable sacrifice.

I noticed this as well when trying to test power, you can always disable ptr, add power to the account and then re-enable ptr

@artch That would be great if we could choose to lose the minerals in certain use cases. Thanks for the fast response. Otherwise good work on getting all these changes out, looking forward to implementing some.

Hello, I am concerned about the potential blocking of renewing of boosted creeps. This change could break parts of my code in that I use boosted creeps in a room that are spawned in another room to cycle through RCLs quickly, and these creeps are renewed in the fast upgrading room. I don't think unboosting would be feasible with the upgrade boost due to the lengthy cooldown. Was this change to the gameplay considered or is this change partly to reduce the effectiveness of these 'prayer' rooms. Thanks.
