For now, I think I'll just make some random bots to mess around with the more 'advanced' methods and things, like making accurate Point2Ds and pointing the gun at them, and Painting methods and saving data. | For now, I think I'll just make some random bots to mess around with the more 'advanced' methods and things, like making accurate Point2Ds and pointing the gun at them, and Painting methods and saving data. | ||
By the way, for some reason the application codesize.jar just doesn't work. I copied what the website says you can do with it, but I always get 'Unable to find codesize.jar' or something like that. Have any ideas on how to make it work? I'm just curious how large [[OMT_HO]] is, thanks :) --[[User:AWOL|AWOL]] 20:25, 17 September 2010 (UTC) | By the way, for some reason the application codesize.jar just doesn't work.

Welcome! Hello, AWOL, and welcome to RoboWiki! This place contains a wealth information about Robocode, from basic to more advanced. I hope you enjoy creating robots and being a robocoder!

Welcome to RoboWiki! Good luck with your robot. --Nat Pavasant 12:04, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
Welcome! Don't be frightened that you can't compete yet with the top-bots. Only a few gifted ones enter high in the ranking. Most of us started rather low and rise as they get the hang of this 'game'. --GrubbmGait 18:30, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
Haha, hey, thanks for the welcome party guys. Maybe someone can point me to a few bots useful for testing targeting and dodging? Thanks :D For now, I think I'll just make some random bots to mess around with the more 'advanced' methods and things, like making accurate Point2Ds and pointing the gun at them, and Painting methods and saving data. By the way, for some reason the application codesize.jar just doesn't work. I copied what the website says you can do with it, but I always get 'Unable to find codesize.jar' or something like that.
