Head-On Targeting

This article is a stub. You can help RoboWiki by expanding it.

The simple strategy of aiming where you last saw the enemy. Works surprisingly well against surprisingly many bots, especially in Melee battles.

Example

In onScannedRobot, add:

double absoluteBearing = getHeadingRadians() + e.getBearingRadians();
setTurnGunRightRadians(
    robocode.util.Utils.normalRelativeAngle(absoluteBearing - 
        getGunHeadingRadians()));
