Devious
Author
Whoever made the Devious (1.8) bot, how have you made it so accurate? It manages to hit my bot (appro. 3 hits every 4 bullets) even from a long range.

Awww, shucks. Devious ain''t THAT good. My bot has managed to beat him about 50-50. And my bot''s a pretty stupid one 2.

I usually beat him too. But on long range fights Devious manages to heat more than mine.

My bot is actually more accurate than devious, it''s just when we get up close and mine loses sight of him that things get rough...

How did you do it more accurate? Can you post just the code where you rotate to the enemy bot? Please!

Tsk...it IS a competition...
k, I will try to do my best.... lol

quote:Original post by NeosmyleInteresting point. I wonder how much this will turn into a secretive competition, or whether peoples'' natural desire to brag will come through...? I guess the best brag is with your bot but showing of some quality code would be close! At this early point before the thing even has a start date, I reckon sharing is more beneficial. There''s so many basics to figure out, if most had these then the fights would be more interesting IMO. Although we might then end up with myriad identical bots comprising just basic functionality. Maybe a bigger range would be nice - from those which get stuck in trees to genetic bots!

btw what is everyone''s general system? State machine, map storing, neural net, random guesswork etc?
I''m currently re-writing my bot (third time today!), still trying to figure out the best method of implementing. Once I figure out what works, it''ll be onto the tweaking and stuff. Currently, my first 2 attempts where kinda state machines I guess, mixed with guess work. My current re-write is starting out by using a map based system, hopefully it will avoid getting stuck, and tracking down the enemy (and guessing where he''s going to pop up) will become easier this way. I''m kicking myself for not keeping the old code, I was beating everyones bot that I downloaded, then I "tweaked" it a bit more, and I am now losing again and can''t figure out what I did

Well I haven''t got very far with mine, but it will be state based, with a dynamic map and instead of making straight decisions, it will assign a probability to a task, then decide at the end.
It will use a dynamic map of the arena, with each tile given a probability of the enemy bot being there. If the bot is seen then the map is reset with a probability of it being in one place, if sight is lost, then the area spreads out. The view triangle constantly resets the cells it is looking at to 0.
