My peasants are killed before they can build even one decoy.

function findBestItem(friend, excludedItems) {
    var items = friend.findItems();
    var bestItem = null;
    var bestItemValue = 0;
    for (let item of items) {
        var idx = excludedItems.indexOf(item);
        if (idx != -1) {
            continue;
        }
        item.score = item.value / hero.distanceTo(item);
        if (item.score > bestItemValue) {
            bestItemValue = item.score;
            bestItem = item;
        }
    }
    return bestItem;
}
function enoughGoldForDecoy() {
    return hero.gold >= 25;
}
while (true) {
    var peasants = hero.findByType("peasant");
    var claimedItems = [];
    for (let peasant of peasants) {
        var enemy = peasant.findNearestEnemy();
        if (enemy && enemy.target == peasant && enoughGoldForDecoy()) {
            hero.command(peasant, "buildXY", "decoy", peasant.pos.x - 2, peasant.pos.y);
            continue;
        }
        var item = findBestItem(peasant, claimedItems);
        if (item) {
            claimedItems.push(item);
            hero.command(peasant, "move", item.pos);
        }
    }
}

Figured it out. Error was in how I picked the best item (hero.distanceTo(item) vs friend.distanceTo(item))
