Talk:Wintermute

Do we expected to see a True Surfing Stormrider here? » Nat | Talk » 12:33, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

No, Stormrider didn't use any sub-pixel precise targeting or movement. This bot is, in concept, similar to RougeDC I think. --Skilgannon 12:40, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

I mean Stormrider re-create with current DrussGT. Isn't sub-pixel SuperBotWidth? I think DrussGT use SuperBotWidth in both Movement and Targeting. » Nat | Talk » 12:55, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

• DrussGT uses SuperBotWidth in the gun but not in the movement. I tried it in the movement but it actually hurt my score. This isn't going to be pure True Surfing however, because I want to be able to evaluate all points on the next wave, which will require some goto stuff =) --Skilgannon 17:12, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Awesome name. :-) I presume this will be the heir to the throne? Good luck! --Voidious 16:41, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Thanks! I was wondering what to call my new bot, and I had just read a book from 1984 called Neuromancer. Wintermute is the very smart AI that is striving to gain a personality by merging with the AI called Neuromancer, which in turn lacks resources and the drive to collect and process information. So my bot Wintermute will be exactly the same: no witty insulters, no victory dances, just straight plain functionality. If it ever attains number 1 then I'll give it a couple of these 'extras' =) --Skilgannon 17:12, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
