My first (functional... well sort of) bot (F3)

[d-EVO]

this is my first bot. it is an F3 league bot ( I think ) and when I tested it it beat Purple Flamma so it is at least in the top thirty.

Obviosly because it is my first it has many rough edges and problems.
It has a targetting system that employs 9 simpleish genes that cause it to lock onto the nearest target. over kill, I know.
Only problem is it locks onto friendlies as well so they just stare at each other untill an enemy bot comes between them.
it uses a clever tactic which is to push the veges around at high speed causing the opponent to starve.
I calculated the exact unit the bot must turn from any eye to eye 5.

If someone could tell me how each eye can recognise friends ( or foes ) post the code here.
Rate it could do much better and at least beat BOTbot. it does if it has a good start.

tell me what you think. and any advice?

Only the focus eye can read back refvars, it defaults to eye5.

Need to remove:

*.refeye *.myeye !=

from the conditions except for the shooting gene. Right now the bots are only turning if they see a non-friend in eye5.

Basically, that unreadable chunk of code sets .focuseye to the nearest bot, then the second gene reads whether the bot should turn towards it (ignores conspecs; note the extra condition *.eyef 0 >, as a blank eye will return 0 to refeye, and you may get some strange movement.) This way, you can get around that drawback with not being able to recognize conspecs out of the corner of your vision, as well as reading additional info about the bot.
