It's 70% of THAT tough boosted part. That's why the tough parts are always first. This means that fully boosted tough parts have an EFFECTIVE hit points of 330 hit points. There is also a "stacking effect" between tough parts and heal parts, as heal parts heal base hit points. So one tough part requires 330 hits to disable, but only 100 heal to recover fully.

Short story: At level 6, you have 2 towers. That's a total maximum damage of 1200 hits. A T3 (Tier 3, the highest tier.) of boosted attacker needs 4 tough parts (1320 hits for those 4 parts.) and 9 heal parts ( 432 total healing) so it can fully recover all 4 tough parts in all cases.

TL:DR. T3 boosted creeps will steamroll a level 6 room.

Short answer, you can't.

The reason for this is your code only executes in tiny spurts once per tick, between ticks you could lose the global memory and it would have to be recreated.

Store data you need to be persistent in the Memory object, "Memory" that's part of your global memory set up for you at the beginning of each tick. Game structures have a shortcut to the memory object that is handy for storing the data pertinent to that game structure. For example, the Creep object has a property, "memory" that points to the place in the memory object associated with that creep, keyed off it's name. So the Memory object for creep "myCreep" would be "Memory.creeps.myCreep" and can be accessed through the creep as "creep.memory"

Data that you can just recreate can be stored in global memory, but know that it could simply "go away" and you will have to rebuild it.

Oh. And as long as I'm here. I like the range of images. Sure, I toss the goofy "stock line art" into the recycle bin, but what else is it for? The way I see it, Screeps is a "generic image game" with round and square shapes instead of styled, rendered images. It's very "indie" in that respect and i like that style. As such, there are no real "Screepsy" images TO put in there.

But a range of images like you are putting in will produce ones that appeal to people. For example, I really like the circular "Babylon ocean clock face" looking graffiti I have in that room. No way it's "Screepsy" at all, but it lends an artistic flair to the room. At least, in my opinion. And I'm the one that has to look at it.

So that part is fine.

An issue I'm having is that I really dislike the "Lighting effects" in the room, so I have them disabled and the "animated swamps" (Which look like toxic waste) turned off. I have no idea if I'm the lone weirdo for doing that, but it is what it is.

Anyway, the issue is this makes the wall and floor textures WAY too light! I keep looking for the rare feature to be able to set that, but all I seem to get is "Stroke brightness" which does very little.

If you could push the brightness control for W and F decorations to a lower rarity, that would make a LOT more of the textures usable.

Added images: Here is what a typical texture looks like in one of my room:

But THIS is what it looks like in the preview:

It looks much darker because the preview defaults to the "normal" lighting. This gives a false sense of the actual appearance of the image on an actual room if you're not using the "normal" setting.

RE: EU Lootbox legality.

I think the pat answer here is "Let the store handle it" as in be ready to remove pixels from the store in contested countries, like Belgium and the Netherlands.

The other issue is circuitous RMT paths, like Steam Dollars and Credits. Since those cannot be limited by region (Well, possibly with the Steam Dollars...) the fallback position is remove pixels as trade able through those currencies. Pixels on Steam are problematic anyway, and removing Pixels from the in game market also works fine.

By any measure, allowing direct account to account trades should always be a no go zone.

This leaves selling CPU Unlocks and the Season access tokens directly for Credits. I think you'll need to add that to stop inflation. However, use a modification of Blizzard's system... two token types for CPU unlocks, one sold in the cash shop that can be transferred or used as a CPU unlock, and one sold for Credits, that can ONLY be used as a CPU unlock.

Gadjung: Pixels for Credits is not a sink. Those credits stay in the player realm. To be a sink, the Credits must be destroyed when the transaction takes place.

The body parts aren't "shot off" they're just damaged into an unusable condition. You still have to drag the damaged parts around.

This is evidenced by the fact that you can just fix them into full recovery. If they were literally gone, they would still be gone.

But I expect the real reason is to just prevent you from slapping a M as the last part for a perpetual, max speed "Get out of Dodge" mode after the rest is too damaged to be used. Instead, that creep, even if any of the final part is partially intact, will only be able to slowly drag itself to freedom. Or perish in the attempt.

@nobodysnightmare That's the time until your CPU fullUnlock RETURNS after it lapses. It's undefined if you either have time, or are subbed.

Ok. I got my free 2000 pixels. I noted my 2 sub tokens are gone, replaced with 120 mini-tokens. There are 2 new methods in Game, "Game.cpu.unlock()" and "Game.cpu.generatePixel()."

Ok, that's self explanatory. As a grandfathered in Steam sub user, I still have an active sub... it will auto-renew on 8-2-2020 if I do nothing. Ok. Fine. My plan was to use one of my tokens before then, extending it to 10-2, then again before that ran out.

All very fine and good. Here's my problem:

I can't tell what my sub status is from the API. Ok... This isn't the worst thing, I could just automatically pop a mini-token once every 24 hours, incrementally extending it even though the cut off is still over a month away, or I could start doing that at a point closer to the date.

But I have no apparent way to determine what the remaining time is. I can't send myself a message reminding myself to get more time, or that I'm going to run out tomorrow. I don't want to just dump the mini-tokens in, I want to "Ride the buffer" of whatever duration I set, like (If time left < 1 month... pop token.)

@artch

"New account registration is disabled on the Public Test Realm server."

It's going to be difficult to do that. And even then, I would technically have 2 accounts.

How do I get onto the PTR to try it? It says "New accounts are blocked" but that couldn't be literal. I clicked the activate button it said to click, and entered credentials through steam... but was told my account is not synced with PTR.
