Background Information

What's special about it?

It's probably the only MicroBot with wall smoothing, adaptive movement and GuessFactor Targeting.

How competitive is it?

At 2017-08-03:12:32, 1.44 is #10 micro, #19 in mini and #121 overall.

Strategy

How does it move?

Same as Raiko 0.3. It circles the other bot. If Math.random() exceeds a certain number then it circles the other way.

How does it fire?

It uses GuessFactor Targeting with segmentation on distance, velocity, deceleration, wall approach and time since deceleration.

How does it dodge bullets?

It doesn't. It uses anti-head-on movement as in Musashi (is that OK PEZ? :-) ) and stops if you kill it in the first 5 rounds.

How does the melee strategy differ from one-on-one strategy?

Don't know. Never tried it in Melee...

What does it save between rounds and matches?

The guess factors between rounds. Nothing between matches, the saving code would take up more space than the gun...

Additional Information

Where did you get the name?

A Micro version of Raiko.

Can I use your code?

It should be in the bot jar, help yourself. Use is under the terms of the RWPCL.

What's next for your robot?

I'd like my colors back. :-(

Does it have any White Whales?

We'll see.

What other robot(s) is it based on?

Raiko. The segmentation was influenced by FloodMini and Aristocles.
