/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!). I start 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!)
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.)
How does it fire?
Virtual Guns Array that contain almost all simple targeting and PatternMatching gun (version 0.1)
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.
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).
