You're not alone writing robots! There are thousands of robots other people have written that you can download and battle with. Warning: Some of them are extremely tough to beat! There is a wide variety of robots available with all sorts of different strategies. It's up to you to go get them, try them out, and [[Robocode/Learning from Robots|learn]] from them.
 
 
 
Most of the robots are available at the popular Robocode website [http://robocoderepository.com/ Robocode Repository], and other robots that take part in the [[RoboRumble]] can be found via the URL listed in the list of [[RoboRumble/Participants|RoboRumble Participants]].
 
 
 
To use them, simply download the robot's .jar file (all robots come as ".jar" files, which means "Java ARchive"), and save it in your '''/robots''' directory.

'''Note:''' The easiest way to use downloaded robots is to save them directly to the robots directory. However, if you save it anywhere else or have any trouble, you can use the '''Import downloaded robot''' tool to copy it there.

Once the new robot .jar file is in your robots directory, simply '''press F5''' to refresh the New Battle screen, and the robot will appear in the list:

Try it out! Is your robot tough enough?
