Background Information
- Bot Name
- Foilist
- Author
- Sheldor
- Extends
- AdvancedRobot
- What's special about it?
- It fits three modes of movement into a single line of code, with enough code size left over for distance control.
- Great, I want to try it. Where can I download it?
- http://robocoderepository.com/BotDetail.jsp?id=4206
- How competitive is it?
- Not too bad, at the time of writing this, it placed 6th in the NanoRumble.
Strategy
- How does it move?
- Start with one-way orbit movement, after one total death, switch to time-based Oscillator Movement, after five total deaths, switch to Random Movement inspired by Ocnirp.
- How does it fire?
- Pattern Matching from WeekendObsession, with some parts from Moebius.
- How does it dodge bullets?
- It doesn't actually react to enemy fire, in the first mode it simply orbits the enemy to dodge Head-On Targeting, in the second mode it reverses direction every 15 ticks to (partially) dodge Linear Targeting, and in the last mode it randomly reverses direction.
- Is this robot melee-capable?
- No.
- What does it save between rounds and matches?
- Between rounds, the enemy history string for the gun code, and the number of times it has died for the movement. It doesn't save anything between matches.
Additional Information
- Where did you get the name?
- Foil is one of the three forms of modern sport fencing, along with Epee and Sabre. [1]
- Can I use your code?
- RWPCL.
- What's next for your robot?
- I don't know.
- Does it have any White Whales?
- I don't think it has any white whales, yet, but it does have trouble against nanobots with strong Random Movement.
