Symbolic Dynamic Segmentation Research - Targeting Research Codename M79

My name is Nat Pavasant. I'm a 13-year-old robocoder from Thailand.

I was first introduced to Robocode sometime in 2006 when I was 11 years old. I don't remember where I found it but I wasn't very good at English at that time so I didn't find this wiki. That time, I mainly played on a modified version of Wall, but I never dealed with AdvancedRobots. Then, I got bored and returned to PHP programming. Later in July 2007, I found a notice of Cubic Thailand National Robocode Tournament 2007. I took another look at my old installation of Robocode in my computer but didn't get further than last time. And again, I returned to PHP programming.In the middle of 2008 I found another Robocode word. I found it on my country's NSC software contest. There was a software called Robo-Rookie that implemented Junior Robot visual editor.

September 2008 is when I entered Robocode community. Now I was a lot better at English and started to seek articles about GuessFactor Targeting that I've heard a lot about for a long time. I didn't understand any part, neither simple or hard, of it. The first robot I've downloaded is Tigger and SpareParts, then Gladiator and Dookious. It was still really, really hard so I decide to learn first Quick Targeting (say HOT, LT and CT). I took a look at NanoBots first because I thought they would make me understand it easier. But, unfortunately, many nano-bot code is super optimized for codesize and made me having headache on it. Anyway, my first robot is a NanoBot after reading many many robot source to understand non-blocking call. I was so silly that I was waiting/reloading Pulsar's old server ranking page for a day and realized that I need to look at Darkcanuck's instead.

I'm now a RoboWiki Vacuum Cleaner. It means that I'm cleaning up the pages. (without any bot for now)

Some fact of mine

• I'm the only robocoder from Thailand who participated in RoboWiki and RoboRumble. (As of April, 09)
• I have the most userboxes on this wiki. =)
• I have the longest user page (I think)
• I contribute a lot of pages/talks in one day (actually, I usually contribute the most time of the day)
  • On 15 Apr 2009 ICT (UTC+0700), there are number of edits, but only 2 edits are from other contributors! Every other edits is done by me.

Bots

Order by creation date.

• Carola: My first, public, nano-sized and shameless robot. Almost everything is taken from WeekendObsession. Retired.
• NanoKitty: A nano bot. First designed for One-one-One, but it uses Head-On Targeting so it's better in melee.
• SwodniwMR: A nano bot that is completely designed for melee, fires head-on and move randomly.
• Ocnirp: My first competitive robot. Nano-sized.
  • OcnirpSNG: Sister of Ocnirp, featuring StopNGo movement on the top of the old random movement.
• AtomicMini: A melee robot and my second shameless robot since the movement is entirely from Shiz and the gun from MiniTron.
  • MiniAtomicOperation: A group of 5 AtomicMinis. Retired.
• BlackHole: My truly first bot (I mean, I wrote more than 70% of it myself) and my first long developed robot.
• AW: Test bot. One-on-one with HUNRobar-style AOM. Comes with Simonton's Pattern Matching as usual for my nanobots.
• Hebe: My test of my crazy ideas. StopNGo movement and Circular Targeting.

Also, check out my /Free code.

Planned Future Robots

• HyperRobot: An extend-robot bot which has Wave Surfing.
• BlackHole v2

Current Developing Robots

• Asteroid: A robot framework.
• Simpler: by name :-)
• TheRiver: Planned to be the first Wave Surfing/Melee ever.

Unreleased vapourware

Don't want me to list all of my vapourware, there's a LOT. Here are some:

• Pallas: Even made a wiki page for it, but now vapourware :-( Anyway, it is under rework.
• Juno, another vapourware after Pallas.
• Aquazyned and few A... bot.
• Pencil, MilkyWay, Galaxy, Mercury
• ... and lot other.

Goals

• Get the throne of all rumble.
  • but I currently focus on general melee/roborumble.
• Be the youngest who entered The2000Club and The2100Club! (Before I get 14...)
• Be the first one who breaks the 2200 beerier!
• Having PHP plugins for robocode =D

Competitions

I'm not want to show my competitiveness, but I must keep records of my competitions.

• Won 1st prize of Cubic Thailand National Robocode Tournament 2008 - Jan, 31 2009 -- Melee Battles -- Won 30,000 Baht (~$855)
• Won 2nd prize of Thailand National Robocode Tournament 2009 - Feb, 7 2009 -- One-On-One Survivalist Battles -- Won 20,000 Baht (~$570)

Other Development

• A Thai Robocode Community website (which include Thai Robocode Repository, Thai RoboRumble and new Thai RoboWiki).
  • New Thai RoboWiki goes online at http://wiki.robothai.net/ thus nothing there except plain MediaWiki/1.14rc1.
  • A new Thai roborumble that I planned to create which also accepts oversea competitors! I think I'll have PointBlank battle reborn and add my new BlankyBattle (which means less number of robots in a really large battle!). Also with TwinDuel, Sonnet/Haiku/Femto Battle. I may include Hat League into it, too. (don't know if my new server hold that? I will ask Darkcanuck for his roborumble server code!)
• Special: Create template for userboxes you see on this page. (I don't know anybody want them? This is not wikipedia, anyway...)

Researches

• /SDSResearch Research for Symbolic Dynamic Segmentation to work faster :-)
• /Targeting Research Codename M79 Targeting experiment with variety of gun doing on its own alone.

Other Works

• Thai RoboWiki: New, fresh Thai RoboWiki with some content.
