/VersionHistory

Take BasicSurfer, segmented the surfing stat, add rolling average, increased bins to 1001, change BinSmoothing and debugging graphics to something like DrussGT, add a flattener (which look like a hill). Now the movement is complete (I take 2 hours a day for 10 days!) so I started work on gun, at first I take a look at PEZ's VirtualBulletBot, but I don't want to use CustomEvent (I must have good class structure!) so I start on my own. I try to fit the DCBot's gun into virtual gun but it doesn't so I try a simple targeting and took a Pattern Matcher from Simonton's bot :).


Let's see classic template:

Background Information

What's special about it?
It's my truly first robot! and I think it has most bins in its Surfing Stats! (currently 5 * 5 * 3 * 3 * 1001 = 225225! [distance * move time * velocity * near wall * BINS])
How competitive is it?
We'll see!

Strategy

How does it move?
WaveSurfing: TrueSurf Style, with
Flattener! I work with it for a day! At first I random a guessfactor that has lower danger in my stats and go to it, but since it has 1001 bins, this make my performance drop. So, I create new stats that keep all guessfactor in 31 bins without RollingAverage and do the same behavior as before. (If you look in my code [WaveSurfing.java] you will see a flatMove() and flatMove2() that work as the first and second version I told you.) (I think this is one way doing flattener that flat with flat juice on top, is it, Voidious?)
How does it fire?
Virtual Guns Array:
What does it save between rounds and matches?
Surfing Stat, VGun rating and Pattern data between round.

Additional Information

Can I use your code?
Sure, under term of NPL.
Does it have any White Whales?
DrussGT, Phoenix, Shadow, Dookious: these are bots I test my bot with and I still expected them to be defeated :)
What the next for your robot.
To make a GuessFactorTargeting, AntiSurferTargeting, advanced PM, good flattener, good Distance Keeper.
What other robot(s) is it based on?
BasicSurfer! (the Wave Surfing), DrussGT (the BinSmoothing and debugging graphics), WeeklongObsession (the SsingleTick PM gun).
