Let Explorer Bring Builder Squad #10

Open slothsoft opened 3 years ago

slothsoft commented 3 years ago

Explorers have due to the "CLAIM" part only a life of 600 ticks. But once it's spawned, it can calculate the number of builders that is necessary to build the spawn (~ 15K energy needed / energy a single builder can bring). It might be necessary to still have an explorer each time the current one dies due to phases necessary after the spawn building.

To make this work, we'll probably need #9 API to Force Spawning.

While the Builder Squad is building, the explorer might actually be better off just being an Upgrader?

Maybe the entire Explorer can be removed and replaced by a base without spawn? Or it could get the ATTACK part and protect its squad.
