== Background Information ==
 
 
 
; What's special about it?
 
 
 
:It is a [[:Category:NanoBots|nanobot]], a [[:Category:Perceptual_Bots|perceptual bot]] and a [[:Category:RamBots|rambot]]. Add the 3 together and the result is an annoying problem bot.
 
 
 
; How competitive it is?
 
 
 
:It is one of the strongest [[:Category:Perceptual_Bots|perceptual bots]] in the rumble.
 
 
 
:It can also defeat a few [[WaveSurfing]]/[[GuessFactor]] megabots with bad [[Energy Management|energy management]].
 
 
 
== Strategy ==
 
 
 
; How does it [[Movement|move]]?
 
 
 
:[[Ramming Movement]] inspired on [[GrubbmThree]]. It follows the same direction the gun is pointing at.
 
 
 
; How does it fire?
 
 
 
:[[Linear Targeting]].
 
 
 
; How does it [[DodgingBullets|dodge bullets]]?
 
 
 
:It doesn´t.
 
 
 
; How does the [[Melee|melee]] strategy differ from [[OneOnOne|one-on-one]] strategy?
 
 
 
:It doesn´t.
 
 
 
; How does it select a target to attack/avoid in [[Melee|melee]] ?
 
 
 
:It always picks the last scanned target. Can´t see any other way to select targets with [[:Category:Perceptual_Bots|perceptual bots]].
 
 
 
;What does it save between rounds and matches?
 
 
 
:Nothing.
 
 
 
== Additional Information ==
 
 
 
; Where did you get the name?
 
 
 
:From [[BulletCatcher]], but it tries to hit bots instead of bullets.
 
 
 
; Can I use your code?
 
 
 
:Yes, although almost all of the code is already on the wiki.
 
 
 
; What's next for your robot?
 
 
 
:Maybe some genetic tuning on the [[Energy Management|energy management]].
 
 
 
:But probably nothing, there is not much room for improvement unless I sacrifice one of the 3 main caracteristics ([[:Category:NanoBots|nanobot]], [[:Category:Perceptual_Bots|perceptual bot]] and [[:Category:RamBots|rambot]]).
 
 
 
; What other robot(s) is it based on?
 
:[[GrubbmThree]] ("following its own bullets" idea)
 
 
 
[[Category:Bots|BotCatcher]]
 
[[Category:NanoBots|BotCatcher]]
 
[[Category:Perceptual_Bots|BotCatcher]]
