Talk:Movement Weaknesses
"Bots that orbit an enemy without closing distance or that run away at orbit."
"Bots that dodge based on a timing pattern instead of enemy energy drop."
I argued. Ocnirp does orbit without any distance controlling, and at about exactly same pattern. It reverse its direction when:
- Math.random() exceed 0.92 (I have test with 0.6, 0.8, 0.85, 0.88, 0.9, 0.92, 0.95, 0.99 and 0.92 work best)
- Hit wall.
- Enemy fire
... and it still stayed at #16 (first release is at #13, but later pushed down by several HUNRobar's bots) According to my test, this movement style dodge StatistBot better than Waylander/Toorkild flattener. » Nat | Talk » 15:21, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
Hmm. Does StatistBot segment on distance? And have you compared when segmenting on velocity? Using 0.92 would work for a certain distance, but closer than that and you will have a spike at GF1, and further than that and you will have a spike at GF0. --Skilgannon 18:07, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
