When I try to open the robocode.bat file, the console opens and then immediately closes. I took a screenshot of the console and it reads

"[file path]>java -Xmx512M -cp libs/robocode.jar robocode.Robocode %*

'java' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."

Any ideas? Thanks.

I should have made it more clear in the OP that I'm not able to use Robocode at all now.

Assuming Java is installed, this would be the step you're missing: Robocode/System_Requirements#PATH_must_be_set

It worked! Thanks.

Huh. It seems my Robot Editor no longer has a built-in codesize checker. Did this change with the update, or could I have another missing classpath somewhere?

Nevermind, I'm using Voidious's command line trick from here now, so it doesn't matter.

Is there any kind of bit operation or arithmetical trick that would allow me to do something like integerWhichCouldOnlyHaveAValueOfZeroOrOne == 0 ? otherIntegerWhichCouldOnlyHaveAValueOfZeroOrOne == 0 ? 0 : 1 : 2 without so many expensive conditionals?

Like this?

integerWhichCouldOnlyHaveAValueOfZeroOrOne | otherIntegerWhichCouldOnlyHaveAValueOfZeroOrOne + integerWhichCouldOnlyHaveAValueOfZeroOrOne

Yes, I think that would work.

Thanks

If there is no possibility that integerWhichCouldOnlyHaveAValueOfZeroOrOne == 1 and otherIntegerWhichCouldOnlyHaveAValueOfZeroOrOne == 0, or if you don't care, then a simple addition would work.

There is a chance that the first and second integers would add up to 1 in two different scenarios. I do care to avoid this because I was planning to use this in VCS segmentation. It would not be prudent to represent two very different situations by the same segment.

If you're using it for wall segmentation, it should be fine just adding. The chances of the closer one being triggered but not the further is quite rare (although it can happen, I admit).

If both wall checks be either 1 or 0 at the same time a vast majority of the time, what's the point of even having a second wall check?

Hang on, is this two forward wall checks, or one forward and one reverse?

I was thinking two forward, where obviously the check which extends further will also be triggered in 99% of cases where the one that extends less is triggered.

If this is one forward, one reverse then I think they should actually be in different segments.

Hi, everyone.

I like to think I have good grammar, but it's not perfect.

If anyone ever sees a spelling error/grammatical error/punctuational error/inaccuracy in any of my pages/posts, please report on this thread exactly what I did wrong. And, if I was correcting someone else when I made the mistake, feel free to rub it in. :)

Your user page has omitted commas in the sentence: "If anyone has codesize issues[,] please post your code on the wiki[,] and I will try to help." Also, you should generally avoid ending sentences with a preposition.

Revenge >:-)

Well deserved. :)

Heh, just don't look at my posts or pages. You'll find mountains of problems. It seems that the better my programming skills get, the worse my English skills become. I leave out words, misspell common words (by accident), and make all kinds of grammatical mistakes.

Usually this could be fixed by reading before I post, but I often forget to do so.
