What's special about it?

Well, it's a micro velocity surfer that uses an interesting gun.

Great, I want to try it. Where can I download it?

robocoderepository.com

How competitive is it?

Pretty good for my standards so far, though it's way too early to tell. I will be able to improve it much as it has plenty of spare codesize and it's still pretty early in the developement process.

Strategy

How does it move?

It's basically SavantVS's movement with added segmentation on distance, wallsmoothing, and dive control.

How does it fire?

It uses a wave-based bearing change gun that doesn't use rolling averages or anything, it just uses the most recent movement of the enemy in that segment. It's the only gun I know of like that, so tell me if it's been done before.


How does it dodge bullets?

It basically just falls into patterns of velocity changes that it changes when it gets hit.

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

You've got three guesses.

How does it select a target to attack/avoid in melee?

It doesn't.

What does it save between rounds and matches?

Everything, since static variables are cheaper.

Additional Information

Where did you get the name?

It uses Savant's movement and it's a micro.

Can I use your code?

RWPCL

What's next for your robot?

My goal is top 50, eventually.

Does it have any White Whales?

All of it's problembots.

What other robot(s) is it based on?

SavantVS.
