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 (bot)|Wall]], but I never dealed with [[AdvancedRobot]]s. 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 (traditional)|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 [[Head-On Targeting|HOT]], [[Linear Targeting|LT]] and [[Circular Targeting|CT]]). I took a look at [[NanoBot]]s 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.

** If this is a normal robocode competition (I mean, not survivalist battle), I would have won definitely! I got 4-6 survival score and 77%-23% normal robocode score!
 
** Because I fired too often (In fact, I ''always'' fired) and he was a great dodger with a great random movement (I had a PM gun, not enough time to write GF). Another thing is that he only fired to disable inactivity timer, so he  often outsurvived me, resulting in higher survival score! -->
 
 
== 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!)

Nat's Page:
Targeting Problem (answered) - Wave Surfing Question (answered) - What's the name mean? - What is this? - How do 1v1 bot perform in melee? - Robot in my dream... - My version of DrawingBot - Free code
Nat's research:
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 bots for now)


Bots

Order by creation date.

Also, check out my /Free code.

Planned Future Robots

Current Developing Robots

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
