Roles

The Role class enables adding fallback behavior if a role cannot be performed

Loading

All of the roles take energy from the nearest container, and fall back on harvesting energy themselves if there's no energy available in a container.

• MinerRole - A static miner that is assigned to a specific source with a nearby container

  Falls back on HarvesterRole if assigning the miner to a source failed

• HaulerRole - Provides energy from containers to spawns, containers, extensions, and room storage

  Upgrades the controller if there's nothing to haul

• HarvesterRole - A HaulerRole that doesn't take energy from containers, preferring to mine it instead. This is a failsafe role, that enables bootstrapping from a low-energy state.

  Falls back on BuilderRole if there's no need for hauling

• BuilderRole - Builds any available construction sites

  Falls back on UpgraderRole if there's nothing to build

• RepairerRole - Repairs any damaged structures

  Falls back on BuilderRole if there's nothing to repair

• UpgraderRole - Upgrades the room controller. Has no fallback, and is intended to be the fallback of most roles.

Vim ALE LSP configuration

npm install -g typescript-language-server typescript

TODO list

• Add Role class heirarchy, to enable code-sharing between roles, which in turn enables fallback Roles.
• IDE integration
  • tsserver
  • prettier
  • eslint
• Add Tower behavior for repair and defense
• Upgrading is too slow. Fallback roles aren't quite right
• Need manager / logistics coordinator?
• .energy and .energyCapacity are deprecated in favor of .store
• Make creep components dependent on energy availability (maybe max energy availability?)
• Move creep spawning logic into Roles?
• Add up to 5 WORK components to MinerRoles based on energy availability
• Long-distance harvesting
• More efficient long-distance harvesting
• Expand to other rooms (requires upgrading GCL)
• Increase upgrade rate proportional to energy intake
• Determine if renewCreep() is more energy efficient (why else would it exist?)
• Use RoomVisual to indicate what the spawn is spawning
• Enable picking up resources from the ground
