Welcome to the wiki indeed! About Horizon, maybe Horizon is fixed as of 1.7.1 Beta2? I haven't tested 1.7.1 Beta2 yet. And Nat, any reason you haven't made a bug report for it or is it the same bug as one already reported? --[[User:Rednaxela|Rednaxela]] 03:21, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Okay, I'm almost done with the prototype of my bot. It's really big, so I'll put it [[PwnBot/Current_Code|here]].  I'm sure it has lots of problems with the antigrav movement, (just look at the console, which shows the x force and y force that the points generate) and I'm sure it doesn't work at all... However, do take a look at the debug graphics, I think they're cool. =)

Um... I do have one problem. Whenever I try to use things such as GF targeting, Surfing, etc. The tutorials never use the methods properly or something. It gives a can't find symbol error for every custom method in the code. =/ -- [[User:Awesomeness|Awesomeness]]

:OH NO!  Something I did with the antigrav code messed up the bullet sim code!  Good thing I backed up the non-broken version before I added antigrav. Should I show that one instead?

The compiler ALWAYS gives me errors unless I set it to "-classpath /Users/student/Documents/Robocode/libs/robocode.jar".  Maybe that's cuz I use a mac.  [[User:Awesomeness|Awesomeness]] 14:36, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Er, you always need to include the classpath if you're compiling from the command line normally. It has nothing to do with using a mac.

:: It would look through every branch in the tree, and it will look for matches.  It simply takes the current speed, acceleration, turn rate, etc. and finds the closest match, or matches.  If there are multiple branches that match, it would take the branch that occurs most.  I suppose if they're even in occurence it might pick them randomly.  Then again, it might balance out, choosing based on the closeness of the match and the number of occurences combined.

NEVERMIND!!!  YEEEAAAHHH! I got GuessFactor targeting to work perfectly!  And with my already good movement strategy, it's awesome!  I'm so proud of myself because I thought up this movement concept myself, and I checked, no one else uses it!  It's a truly original strategy!  I think...

Nope, they won't. Robocode loads each robot with a seperate classloader, which makes it so individual robots in battle keep completely seperated static data. --[[User:Rednaxela|Rednaxela]] 02:23, 14 March 2009 (UTC)

== Trigonometry Question ==
 
 
 
Ok, this is kind of unrelated, but all you guys here are experts at trigonometry,and although I go to a VERY advanced school, I'm only 13, and I have a limited understanding.  I am making a java application totally unrelated to Robocode.  Say I have this scenario:
 
 
 
I've made a dot that moves around with the arrow keys, but I want another dot to follow it.  I've made the first dot move according to the arrow keys, and I could make the follower dot's movement simple, but I want it to move DIRECTLY towards the arrow key mover dot.  To do this I need two things:
 
 
 
-A method returning a double and taking parameters x, y, x2, and y2 giving the angle in radians between them in comparison to vertical.  For example, if x and y are 0, 0 and x1 and y2 are 2, 2, then the angle you'd get is 2.35619449, or 135 degrees in radians.
 
 
 
-A way to get the change in x and y when given an angle.  It returns x and y and takes a double called angle.  For example, if the angle was 90 degrees, (in radians, though, of course) then it would return 1, 0, if it was 180 degrees, it'd return  0, 1, and if it was 270 degrees it'd be -1, 0.
 
 
 
Sorry if this is confusing...  Someone help, please! --[[Awesomeness]] (moved by --[[User:Zyx|zyx]] 01:24, 29 March 2009 (UTC))
