Bug

It seems ÉpéeistMicro has a bug somewhere in its gun code. It's throwing "ArrayIndexOutOfBounds" and "NullPointer" exceptions, especially against mirror bots.

The only change I made to the GF code was to change the constant MEA from .7 to 0.727272727272727272727273.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Looks, like here you have a problem: [(int)enemyDistance / 200] Distance may be more than 800 units (sqrt(800*800 + 600*600)=1000), but you give for this dimension only 4 elements It's another problem, but i cannot find out other problems by codereview and it's too late to debugging it, sorry

Jdev‎18:29, 8 January 2013

I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're saying. On an 800 by 600 field, the maximum possible distance would be 764, 764 divided by 200 would be 3.82, and 3.82 cast to an int would be 3. Besides, Thorn and a few other micros use the same distance segment code and don't have a problem.

Sheldor‎19:20, 8 January 2013
 

On an 800x600 field, the distance between opposite corners is 1000 (forming a 3/4/5 right triangle). So I think you do need another distance segment, but I haven't looked through your code/logs enough to be sure that's the problem above.

Voidious‎19:44, 8 January 2013
 

Thanks! You both nailed it. In older versions I initialized the dimension to 7, I forgot to mention I had reduced it to 4 to save a byte. The reason it was losing to mirror bots was because they were in the opposite corner exactly the same time EM was.

I will give you both a mention in the credits.

Sheldor‎20:23, 8 January 2013
 

Do you use any version control system (git, mercurial, etc)? I recommend to use it. It will facilitate for such bugs detection.

Jdev‎05:16, 9 January 2013

No. How do they work?

Sheldor‎15:57, 9 January 2013
 

I use git for my projects. But I'm sorry to say they don't really save you from silly bugs. =)

I use Maven as build system. Never tried gradle.

And I´m not currently using any version control system, but I might try git. There was one episode in the past when I lost hours trying to figure out why my bot score dropped about 30% in challenges. I could have found the bug in minutes with version control.

MN‎13:25, 10 January 2013

We are use ant and maven at work for enterprise project and gradual migrate to gradle, so i definitely can suggest to try gradle^) Especially because you can easy generate gradle project from maven project: http://gradle.org/docs/current/userguide/bootstrap_plugin.html
