I was first introduced to robocode in around 2010 as part of my undergraduate computer science course. For our class competition I wrote a simple melee bot using minimum risk movement and a buggy linear targeting gun which came second overall. I've been fascinated with robocode ever since but a combination of lack of time (and dislike of Java) has kept me from writing anything more serious or entering the roborumble. I'm hoping 2024 will be the year that changes.

Diary of a Robocoder - Personal Gotchas

Background

I was first introduced to robocode in around 2010 as an undergraduate. For our class competition I wrote a simple melee bot using minimum risk movement and a buggy linear targeting gun which came second overall. I've been fascinated with robocode ever since but it wasn't until 2024 that I finally entered the RoboRumble with Quantum.

My bots

Active

Quantum - A nano melee specialist written in assembly with a novel take on Anti-Gravity Movement.

Retired

FireHammer - My attempt at squeezing Mirage's gun into a micro bot. Retired after the release of Figment which did the same, but more effectively.

In Development

Neutrino - An attempt at squeezing neural networks into a nanobot. As of August 2025 I have a proof of concept that the code fits ... so I'm about 1% of the way there!
