Source code?

New page

== Source code? ==

The PatternBot jar doesn't include source code for the bot to prevent cheating, right? Or is it just to maintain the mystique? =D Regardless, the bot is so trivial that withholding the source seems counterproductive. Should we post the source for the sake of transparency? Would it be too much of a copyright violation? (Can anyone contact Vic and ask if it's OK?) You can look at [http://pastebin.com/m271d15f7 my decompilation], but I'll delete it if anyone yells at me. « [[User:AaronR|AaronR]] « [[User talk:AaronR|Talk]] « 00:57, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

		+	Really I have decompiled PatternBot long time ago to cheat. But seeing the code I think writing a PM gun is easier then simulating PatternBot movement. I don't think posting about decompilation isn't good idea. I myself learn a lot from closed source robots (guess which) by decompiling them, but I'll never ever slip my decompiled source over the internet (except for special purposes, such as fixing [https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2627698&group_id=37202&atid=419486 Robocode's bug causing SandboxDT to be disabled]) --[[User:Nat\|<span style="color:#099;">Nat</span>]] [[User talk:Nat\|<span style="color:#0a5;">Pavasant</span>]] 11:42, 17 October 2009 (UTC)
