DangerPrediction

Te-he-he! I didn't mean to cause a stir! :)

This all boils down to your definition of "Wave Surfing". I see Wave Surfing as quite a narrow category of movement. But I assume then that you lot think Wave Surfing is any movement that tries to dodge predicted bullet positions then? In which case, yes, its a variant of wave surfing.

I think it is more akin to http://robowiki.net/wiki/Minimum_Risk_Movement because it picks a series of points (but in my case its actually a series of 50 tick long paths) to move to, and evaluates the danger for each of those points (paths).

:-) For what it's worth, I consider Wave Surfing a form of Minimum Risk Movement too. That's pretty close to how I'd define it, actually - Minimum Risk where the risk is based on enemy waves.

Haha! Talk like that and you will have everyone thinking that all movement in Robocode is Minimum Risk! ;)
