Look at Screeps: World [0] for depth in a programming base-builder RTS.
You write the code for each of your units, either natively in Javascript or Typescript, or via WASM you can run Rust, Python, etc. You use a private server or join a shared MMO world. There's a free sim [1] to try out the basics, though the actual game has much more depth. And an active Discord for help [2].
There's also a variant Screeps: Arena [3] that focuses on 1:1 PVP battles with ranked ladders if you prefer short-lived matches to a long-running world.

- jader201 3y agoI knew about this one, but was turned off by the review talking about the base CPU isn't enough, requiring a subscription.
- alex-mohr 3y agoI get that, but IMO it's not an issue. On one shard you can't use more than base CPU, so there's no advantage to a subscription there. Other optional shards are almost entirely people who subscribe. Do that too if you decide to, or ignore them.
