My friend worked on a bot database for his Comp Sci class.  It's largely incomplete, but a working backbone exists.
Here it is

I'm convinced

IMHO Corpses already cover this so I see no need to add this.

Bot Tavern / Leagues

« on: May 15, 2006, 08:49:34 AM »

They've been working fine in mine and the add-ons I've made

They have in mine, too. My biggest concern is that they are currently quite a load for the CPU. Building big mazes slowes the program down a lot.

(I did a quick test, on a random sim I got 25 cycles/sec without walls and 7 cycles/sec with a maze. Sidenote: I have a 900mhz cpu and the version I ran is Endy's)

Bot Tavern / Leagues

I really like the wall/maze idea  How about a league in which bots have to find their way to the center of the sim? (through a maze of course) then note the time it took to get there (in cycles) as the time to compete with in the league.

It would require a complete overhaul of the wall system though I think.

I moved it here as it seemed to be more of a program related topic than a biology related one. Sorry if I confused people.

Bugs and fixes / Runtime error '340' while running leagues

Technically I could, and I guess there's no harm in trying...

Short Bots league / SB Update

« on: May 10, 2006, 09:04:08 AM »

There were two new bots in this update:

• Vector 1.0 by abyaly
• Absolutezero by Viplex

Vector 1.0 did rather well and made it upto 9th place. Abolutezero however fared not so well and did not get into the top 25 bots. Maybe with some improvements it will, because it looks promising

Bugs and fixes / Runtime error '340' while running leagues

« on: May 10, 2006, 07:56:48 AM »

While running the SB league the program chrashed, giving me a runtime 340 error (see screenshot)

some additional information:
- It was at the start of a round between Vector 1 and Asterus_Igni.
- attached are the bot DNA files of the competing bots.

I'm affraid this is all the information I can give. After I clicked 'ok' on the error popup, DB shut down. Because it only happened after a long time using the 'league-tool' I suspect it's a rare bug. But a bug nevertheless

Bugs and fixes / Major shot and energy bug

« on: May 09, 2006, 12:55:36 PM »

I get this one, too.

Bot fire shots at vegs (and receive white shots), but their energylevels don't rise.

and sometimes -1 shots hit vegs but no energy comes back at all. (see screenshot)

Off Topic / Shortbots to be updated again

« on: May 08, 2006, 10:09:52 AM »

I've decided tol run the next update in 2.37.6, and have a "shadow" league in 2.4, to see if there are any significant differences (I suspect there will be)

Hi all,

These are the bots I'm going to add this time (as well as rerunning the whole league):

• Absolute Zero by Viplex
• Una 3.0 by Elite
• Vector 1.0 by abyaly

Want your bot added/removed to/from this list, then please reply.
