- ScalarBot Sub-pages:
- Version History - Understanding ScalarBot
Background Information
- The skillful fighter puts himself
- into a position which makes defeat impossible,
- and does not miss the moment
- for defeating the enemy.
- — Sun Tzu, The Art Of War, ch 4
- How competitive of it?
- It ranks #3 in RoboRumble since Oct. 3rd, 2017
- What's special about it?
- Nothing. Really? Since you asked —
- By far the top bot without an Anti-Surfer Gun
- By far the top bot without a Flattener
- By far the top bot without using Gun Heat Waves
Strategy
- How does it move?
- kNN Wave Surfing
- How does it fire?
- GuessFactor with Conditional Density Estimation via kNN
- What does it save between rounds and matches?
- Everything between rounds, nothing between matches
Additional Information
- Where did you get the name?
- Scalar replacement, when I was reading Escape analysis
- And what Scalar means now is fast, strict and precise.
- Can I use your code?
- Not yet.
- What's next for your robot?
- Make defeat impossible, and do not miss the moment for defeating the enemy —
- Split the current gun into a general purpose gun & an Anti-Surfer Gun
- Tune the movement against some GF bots, as well as the top bots.
- Try some flattener, agaaaain
- What other robot(s) is it based on?
- It inherits ShieldBot's structure while using the gun and movement (actually, only the trees) from SimpleBot. It, however, evolved a lot since then.
- Although no code directly, its evolvement is inspired by a lot of bots, including DrussGT, Diamond, Tomcat, Nene and more on this wiki.
- Credits give to
- Skilgannon, for his DrussGT gun, which influenced me a lot, and for his wise advice to me.
- Voidious, for his Diamond gun, which is extremely strong, pushing me to work on movement more and more. Some gun attributes are also inspired by Diamond.
- Jdev, for his Tomcat movement, which is pretty unique, and its data analysis inspired me a lot as well.
- Chase, for his Nene, which told me that a flattener or an Anti-Surfer Gun is not essential. Its movement inspired me a lot as well.
- Jamougha, for his RaikoMicro, strong GuessFactor Gun with strong Random Movement, which is my favorite bot to test with ;).
