Using RaidOperation

RaidOperation is the primary tool for raiding.

Quick Start

1. Check ahead of time to make sure you have all the catalyzed boosts: 1k XUH2O, 1k XLHO2, 1k XZHO2, 1k XGHO2
2. Place a flag raid_myRaid in the room you want to spawn the creeps
3. Place a flag myRaid_attack in the room you want to attack (should be within observer range and have a valid path that doesn't take you through other hostile rooms)
4. Watch console for issues

Known issues:

• Sometimes it does not correctly place the fallback flag, and so I just place it manually most of the time. myRaid_fallback should go outside the room you want to attack, ideally near the point you want your creeps to enter
• The auto-config that happens after you place the attack flag will order up a raid with the following parameters:
  • number of attack squads: 1
  • squad type: brawler (attack parts)
  • boost level: 2 (this is the standard boost level)
• If you want something other than this, you should adjust the parameters before you place the attack flag.
  • myRaid.setDefaultBoostLevel(number) Sets the boost level
    • 0 - Training mode (unboosted, small creeps)
    • 1 - Nonboosted (unboosted, 50-part creeps)
    • 2 - Boosted (boosted, 50-part, this is the minimum required for taking out most rooms)
    • 3 - SuperTough (boosted, 50-part, extra tough parts and distributed healing to survive clustered tower configurations
    • 4 - RCL7 (boosted, lower part cost so that they can be spawned by RCL7)
  • myRaid.setDefaultType(type) Sets the attack type
    • "brawler" - melee-attack creeps
    • "wreck" - work parts
    • "firefly" - ranged-attack parts
    • "shortbow" - shortbow attack style
  • myRaid.setMaxSquads(max) - Sets the number of squads that will be spawned

Changes from previous versions

• Breach flags have been phased out, replaced by target flags.
• Attack flags designate which room(s) you want to attack: opName_attack
