NewMove?

Alright, I'll admit it, I don't have a clue what this does. :D

You wrote in Humilis that it will help it out, just not how exactly.

Numsgil:
Older bots were limping along in because they were just blithely firing along at some number .up store.

Nowadays, that force is divided by mass to get actual acceleration.

To help older bots make the transition, all .up/.dn etc. are multiplied automatically by mass of the bot.

But I think this is somewhat cheating.  So newer bots are encouraged to use:

use NewMove

to tell DB that it doesn't want it's .up's and .dn's multiplied by mass automatically.

Did that make any sense?

Endy:
Yep, thanks :)

Numsgil:
bots without use NewMove will operate (or should operate) the same as they did in older versions.

Humilis is correctly using the use NewMove command.  View it as a template for how it's supposed to work.

I thought my first response post answered alot of your questions, so maybe you can point out what specifically doesn't make sense in that post so I won't be repeating myself in a way that was ineffective the first time?

Zelos:
you should do like im gonna do nums, it gives a specefic trust and then do all that newton stuff.
