Bot Challenge!

<< < (2/3) > >>

Numsgil:
Sounds fun.  I'll set up a sub forum for you.

Numsgil:
Okay, there's a new league sub forum for this, and I've moved the topic.

Jez:
Ok, ok, I can't even get past the first hurdle, adding another bot to the sim.  

I think I deserve a booby prize for crashing the game lots and getting it to run really really slowly every now and then though.  

If you would be so kind as to explain to me how to enter my bot into the sim, in words of not more than 14 syllables I would be very grateful. Sorry to be a pain.

Elite:
Oh, sorry Jez, I forgot to mention that ...

Open the sim, then click on the start new simulation button, then add your bot, then press 'Change' rather than 'Start new'. You can then insert your bot with the insert bot tool

And thanks for the new subforum Num!  

First challenge should be posted sometime soon.

EDIT: Woo! 500th post!

Jez:
I've just seen that you posted a new challenge so I'll have a look at that in a min.

Meanwhile, tieang seems to only return a value of 0 and my current value of fixlen on the last incarceration of a 'bot on a string' has reached a fixlen value of 20450 without actually changing the tie length. Plus fixang doesn't change the direction my bot faces, it always faces to the right, the same angle it started at, rather than the desired affect of always facing away from the tie.

Your bot needs glasses btw, it seems to take several rotations before it spots the intruder, doesn't bode well for higher up the chain...

I could solve this by triggering the bot at a specific location each time but that seems inelligent. So instead I'm trying to get the bot to be triggered when the intruder spots the next bot, harder than it sounds when they are a little to far apart and with all the problems I have found so far.

I wonder why ties annoy me so often...

EDIT: Congrats on making the 500 mark!!
