| − | :Well that would be a bit hard, you would need a very old version of robocode to even view it. I will search around but I think the code is long since gone. Basically all it did was something like robocode.battle.bullets.add(new robocode.bulletpeer()), assigned it to itself and placed it projected off enemy location (gained from reading the enemy location from the internal class) at an PI/50 intervals (ergo PI*2/100). and set the velocity to fly towards the enemy. If you wanna see something like ti disable the security manager and use the new method of peer management that Robocode uses. You should be able to do something like that with that system. Just don't try making your robot teleport, robocode didn't like it then I doubt it likes it now. --[[User:Chase-san|Chase]] 06:23, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

| − | : Well this is a bit beyond the scope of what Robocode can really hope to do I think.
| |
| − | : I have been writing mostly C/C++ since July, and I have done some opengl. If I can use a OpenGL wrapper in java I might be able to use that for this. However despite this still somewhat being on my eventual 'todo' list I have other more pressing things right now I need to work on. (Like College work! :P)
| |
| − | : But to me, one of the really neat thing about this is the possibility for custom models. Of course there would be option to scale them to a certain 'area' if to large and would probably be in the format of an average obj file. I have worked with those before, they are very simple.
| |
| − | : Which would make the battles very interesting to watch. Initially it will probably only use wireframe models, to avoid having to texture map. (and it looks cool)
| |

| − | :: Okay, since I have done opengl before I decided to try out JOGL, and amazingly its almost identical to the honest to go C opengl in the way of commands. So that makes this easy enough I can make this nice 3D demo for everyone. I didn't do any texture mapping (making a texture takes to long, imho), but the rest of it is there. I have two ships flying orbits around the center. This is just GL trickery right now and not example of actually programmed robots, but I wanted to show I could do it now. Because before I had absolutely no clue on the 3D.
| |
| − | ::I also would like opinions on the size of the ship to the size of the field there. In retrospect I should of just added an additional unmoving ship in the center so its easier to peek at the model. But if any of you have any 3D modeling programs you can poke the model I have in the zip. Mine is about 20 minutes with some cheap smoothing done on it.

| − | :: Wow! Cool! I personally think the field should be bigger, especially if the bots are going to be able to move at the speed they do in your simulation. Similar to robocode, I think it should take at least 100 ticks to fly from corner to the other, and half that for bullets to travel from one side to the other. Another thought: since this is in 3D, we need to give the bullets some thickness or they won't be able to intercept. They can't just be modelled by a straight line anymore. --[[User:Skilgannon|Skilgannon]] 21:34, 7 November 2009 (UTC)
| |
| − | ::: Well I can completely change their speed, size, and the like. The field currently is 'technically' only 2x2x2 (-1 to 1) in size, and those models are very small, but to the actual robot it could be anything from 2x2x2 to 1000x1000x1000, dynamically resizing the robots as needed. But okay. --[[User:Chase-san|Chase]] 04:41, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

| − | Obviously this has not received my full attention! However I would like to pose a question to all of you.
| |
| − | | |
| − | http://www.csdgn.org/files/images/three_axes.gif
| |
| − | | |
| − | I was wondering what the relative limits on the axis should be. Since the hit box on a ship will be non static, meaning you have a smaller profile when your side is facing then your top, I was considering restricting the ability to turn on the yaw the most and give the roll the most freedom, putting pitch somewhere in between. Considering the majority of your thrust will be along the x axis (forward and back, but with limited thrusting ability along the z and y). I was wondering if this seemed fair (since a high yaw would allow you to have a low hit box and be able to turn quickly when circling your enemy surfer style) --[[User:Chase-san|Chase]] 03:23, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
| |
| − | | |
| − | : I think prioritizing limits that way makes sense personally. On second thought though, I wonder if making pitch and yaw the same for symmetry would make sense? One thing to consider is that one could always bank to the side as to allow pitch and yaw to be combined. --[[User:Rednaxela|Rednaxela]] 15:21, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
| |
| − | | |
| − | :: If it is a plane, then I think pitch is easier to do than yaw. For pitch, you just pull the controller. For yaw, well, hard to control I believe =) --[[User:Nat|<span style="color:#099;">Nat</span>]] [[User talk:Nat|<span style="color:#0a5;">Pavasant</span>]] 15:30, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
| |
| − | | |
| − | Oh, and in other news on this, aside from the few of the local to global coordinate and thrust translations I need to do yet, I can internal code mapping to display code. Roll, yaw, pitch all work. Velocity works, I have to apply the rotation to the thrust still (since thrust is local) and then apply it to the velocity. Once I get the fluid dynamics reapplied, it should be ready for some basic programming in the flight department. --[[User:Chase-san|Chase]] 04:13, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

| − | | |
| − | : On that note, I have a core test for you. Basically this bot is a somewhat inefficient 3D version of walls. This is not 3D trickery, this is the actual core doing its job. Physics (if you can call a simple drag physics), rotation, thrust, etc. They all work. It uses a system similar to the current robocode for setting it's turn, or at least the last version of it I looked at. The field it is on is HUGE, 2000x2000x2000, it is bound the the display so that is the reason if it looks like it is going insanely fast and turning on a dime (I will fix this at some point by giving the engine its own thread). [http://www.csdgn.org/files/RoboflightCoreTest.zip Core Test 0] To be honest I am a bit annoyed with myself, since the last time I worked on this I found it hard, now I don't, not really. --[[User:Chase-san|Chase]] 06:55, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

| − | Alright, now I have something really done. Alright, I rewrote the graphics and engine. Two really simple bots with really simple behavior. Loopy does loops, WallyX is like the previous walls, except he will change which set of walls he flies on randomly when at the midpoint, meaning he will cover all 6 (eventually).
| |
| − | | |
| − | I have detached the engine from the screen rendering, the engine is fixed at 20 fps for the moment, but the display is much higher. I added the ability to rotate the display manually (with momentum) and shift it up and down and even zoom in on it (mouse wheel). The yellow line shows thier direction of movement (since it is not always along thier x axis during turns). Still would like to hear your opinion on the turn radius of the robots. Oh and here is the demo so you can try it yourself, I decided to split the libraries into their own archive (so I don't ahve to upload them again).

| − | | |
| − | Cool! If the robot is a plane (thus 'flight'), I believe pitch should be a bit lower (base on source code in code 2 anyway). Your control is a bit interesting -- I wonder how can I thrust from the z axis. If so, I think your should limit the thrust on y and z axis to be s lot lover than the x axis. But the probably on your todos list already. --[[User:Nat|<span style="color:#099;">Nat</span>]] [[User talk:Nat|<span style="color:#0a5;">Pavasant</span>]] 15:30, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
| |
| − | | |
| − | : Yes, actualy, I plan to limit the thrust on the X and Y axis to be at most 0.1 or 0.2, where as the x axis can go all the way to 1.0. Depending on how I decide to do the movement dynamics, the inverse of x might be at most -0.2 or all the way to -1.0. Depending on if I want a game like robocode, where backwards can be the same magnitude as forward. I will also limit the total maximum magnitude of the thrust to 1.0, if over 1.0, so 1.0 on x and 0.2 on Y would give it a total magnitude of sqrt(1.0*1.0 + 0.2*0.2), or a bit over 1, so I would normalize it to 1. Meaning both thrust vectors would be reduced, but if under this, no normalization will occur.
| |
| − | : As for the pitch and yaw. I wanted to give pitch a greater turn radius so that robots will expose a greater hitbox to the enemy to make use of this better turning ability, if they are orbiting the enemy in standard robocode fashion. If i was really evil, I would get rid of Yaw altogether. (thus requiring robots to roll and pitch to make a turn) --[[User:Chase-san|Chase]] 17:34, 23 April 2010 (UTC)

| − | For bullet collision, and bullet missile collision, I will probably still use a line, but use a [http://softsurfer.com/Archive/algorithm_0106/algorithm_0106.htm#dist3D_Segment_to_Segment() shortest distance between two line segments] algorithm to determine if they had collided. Might have to do it in substeps, and only if the two bullets line paths distances are less than a certain amount (to avoid unneeded computationally expensive checks for bullets nowhere near each other). Robot/Missile or Robot/Bullet collision will probably make use of a [http://local.wasp.uwa.edu.au/~pbourke/geometry/planeline/ line and plane intersection] algorithm, this would require a check of all 6 surfaces (most likely), since unlike usual robocode, the hit box changes orientation and is of non-square dimensions. --[[User:Chase-san|Chase]] 17:49, 23 April 2010 (UTC)

| − | == Wow 2 Years... ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Looking at the timestamp of the last bot I released (Pytko), it has been over 2 years since I released anything. I have been doing other things since then, but the robocode fever really did burn itself out I guess... It is no longer "I can stop any time I like!", but "I not sure if I can restart.". The thing is, it has been so long since I have worked on a robot, I would have to cover the basics again... While I consider this a great chance for a fresh beginning in the community, there is little room left for innovation, and I doubt I would be the one to make any such breakthrough (unless I try to make an [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_resonance_theory ART] based bot and it works). --[[User:Chase-san|Chase]] 03:37, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

| − | I kind of know the feeling. I started working on [[Diamond]] last April after ~16 months of non-Robocoding. You look at 1v1 and you're like, "do I really want to even start climbing this mountain?" =) But I'd barely touched Melee before then, so it was a very refreshing and enjoyable experience to explore new territory. And, of course, eventually the 1v1 bug bit me again, too. Anyway, welcome back and good luck. =) --[[User:Voidious|Voidious]] 15:35, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
