Welcome / Java 7

Hey and welcome to the wiki! Nice to see a new wikizen jumping right into the rumble. One request though - could you compile your bots with Java 6 compatibility? Some folks are not on Java 7 yet, so we can't run your bots.

Good luck in the rumble!

Hi, thank you. I hope I'll manage to create some strong bots in the future ;D

I would compile it with Java 6, but do I have to download an older RoboCode version then too? Or should I directly compile and pack it with Eclipse?

Can you tell me how to run RoboRumble battles myself? I tried that RoboRumble.bat file, but it says "cannot connect" or something like that...

Your bots are really nice, btw ;)

Welcome =)

I know with javac if you add -target 1.6 -source 1.6 it should compile in 1.6 compatible mode. I'm not sure how to do that with Eclipse though.

Oh, and Voidious, I'm quite happy if Diamond doesn't improve too much in the near future. I need to work on my MSc, not Robocode! :-p

Don't worry, I'm pretty heads down on another project right now. =) Not to mention my full-time job and my dog and (returning to) getting enough sleep...
