Numbat/Version History

Numbat 1.2 Size: 6000+ (in progress)

lots of minor bugs fixed
radar got a work fix for his bug
movement improved, better ram bot detection and response, agility for certain situations increased, still not 1v1 ready
graphic enabled (key 'd')
gun collects now patterns on the fly for all scanned bots, improved start pattern use (will be dynamic in next version - major memory gain)

Numbat 1.2 Size: 5000+ (success)

changed codebase to mega bot - no more holding back by code size and room for new ideas (well the truth is, i simply got lost without a good code structure)
targeting holds longer on bots with yummy bullet bonus
gun: the average start pattern decides now about the bullet power (full power on simple pattern bots)
graphical debugging (included but not enabled in this version)
little radar fix (still a major bug - ends with me playing sitting duck, hopefully fixed in next version)
gun, radar and movement now independent of onScan.. and works within run() - still room for interpolations
movement, force changes if opponent long time not seen (makes the movement a little more fluid)
MeleeRumble ‒ APS: 64.86% (14th), PL: 316-22 (23rd), Survival: 84.58%

Numbat 1.1 Size: 1824 (success)

code cleaning
gun handles now wall hits (works very well against sample bots)
gun data structure improved by removing zero patterns (400k more pattern to save per battle)
pattern length now 30 to collect more valuable pattern instead of rare long term pattern
little radar adjustment (locks now longer to collect the pattern)
movement randomized (perpendicular rate)
MeleeRumble ‒ APS: 64.04% (24th), PL: 309-30 (30th), Survival: 82.83%

Numbat 1.0 Size: 1864 (success)
