CPU Saving from bucket #45

Closed jordansafer closed 4 years ago

jordansafer commented 4 years ago

If we are using over 20 CPU/tick and bucket is running low (under 1k?), skip non-critical tasks. Also a lazy approach to hibernating => randomly choose 10 cities to run each tick (not perfect since cities will still end up doing similar work, it just limits the number of cities doing work per tick).

definitely veto pt 2 of this due to gross energy waste, communication inconsistencies, military effects, missed reactions/ out of sync creep actions etc.

JonathanSafer commented 4 years ago

currently when the bucket is low we already: stop placing power mining and deposit mining flags, stop power processing, stop lab reactions, decrease upgrader usage in RCL 8 rooms, stop spawning builders/repairers at RCL8.

additionally we could stop factory usage, and make the transition to dormant mode quick for cities in case of absolute need for CPU
