How Do I Detect Swamps in Screeps

How Do I Detect Swamps in Screeps - Swamps near Mountains

In screeps, I can see swamps using my browser window. However, I can find no way for my script to detect if the terrain is a swamp except for having my creeps walk around marking swamps they encounter as they go. Are there any other ways to detect swamps?

Best Answer

You can use Room.lookForAt method:

var terrain = creep.room.lookForAt('terrain', creep.pos.x+1, creep.pos.y);
if(terrain != 'swamp') {
  creep.move(RIGHT);
}

If you want to find all terrain tiles from the entire room, check this SO question.
