I must say that I do like idea number three, it would shake up a few things while still be in how should one say it, the spirit of robowar. This would ad a new...

i was thinking of things i wish i could do to make my bots score better, and a lightbulb appeared above my head. what if probes could check an opponent's...
I was actually thinking of way number 5: Regular x-bullets that do 1.5x (or 2.0x or whatever) and a separate weapon that does the same damage, probably with a...

So I've run a couple gene pools in the last couple weeks. The first had all bots from T16-T25 except #hellstunner (who causes tournament crashes). Results are...
This was interesting, nice to know that my little bot could do well even in this large arena. Not that I’m that surprised considering that he didn’t embers...

Ohh BTW I just realised that I’m both the Alpha and the Omega because my little creation Moon from T16 ended up at the bottom. I wonder why? Can it have been...

Heh. Please, don't make people start trying to beat you for that position ;P Things I found interesting about these gene pools: * In both, Prfnoff's Noro and...
I made a simple "C to native" translator program with examples. The program can be found in the files section of this yahoo group. I know it can't do...
... Ending at the bottom is absolutely not fair to Moon. Viktor and I namely figured out that this is caused because Moon has a label called "Damage:" While...

What about this idea I just had. What if a special game type was created where killed bots actually would be recreated somewhere on the gamefield where the...
Well this would be a great idea. Although I still think that some hardware changes should be made too, just to increase options but still this is a great idea!...

I updated the game to work with the latest version of BlueOwn's .dll. I also did some other changes. Thanks to BlueOwl for updating the C to RoboTalk...
... Hi, nice work. I have been trying it last week and overall it works great. I have a request though; i noticed nearest' will range from -180 to 180, but...
... Well... NEAREST ranging from -180 to 180 range was actually on purpose. Processor speed 10 should not be more powerful than 15. Although the intention was...
For clarity, I think blueowl was requesting that the range of numbers be changed. Not that nearest should give a definate aim, but that the offset which it ...
... Yes indeed, that's what i meant. :) ... Well, I think that if 15 processor speed bots don't have nearest', noone (serious) will ever write a 15 processor...

Oh.. I see. Hmm.. I guess I could do that.. But I still got to ask BlueOwl a counter-question Yet again, don't you think that would make 10 processor speed...
I think you misunderstood again. It wouldn't change doppler calculations at all. For example: CURRENTLY: nearest aim + aim' store # sets aim to nearest bot ...
