There are several key issues to consider when deciding whether or not your bot should fire, including:

  • Is my gun aimed? If your gun hasn't finished turning before you fire, then your targeting algorithm is being crippled.
  • How much energy do I have left? Firing yourself disabled is usually not worth it.
  • Am I able to hit the enemies accurately enough to make it worth firing at them? It's usually a good idea to fire at least minimum power while the enemy is firing because of the chance of bullet collisions.
