Just one more question I battled DrussGT against Diamond in 5000 round battle in robocode.command but Diamond gets %92. Is it because of robocode.

I understood it I use a mac and I use java 7

I understood I use a mac and java 7

I am sorry to say, but I do not understand your question. Could you please reword it?

DrussGT is the best robot on roborumble but when it fights with Diamond in a 5000 round battles using normal robocode Diamond wins %92 to %8

I

The roborumble is 35 rounds. I've never run more than 1000 rounds for DrussGT to be honest...

The roborumble runs only 35 rounds per battle, so most of us never put much thoughts for long runs. So, there could be a memory leak which kicks in on long battles, this would disable a bot, which leads to its defeat.

In 35 rounds it was beating like %98 %2 so I tried it in longer and longer battles.

And only one more question I added my bot to the participants list and I can see Tomahawk in participants_latest. But I've been waiting for 3 days and I can't see it in the rumble. As I know it takes 1 - 24 hours to get into the roborumble. Is it supposed to be like that???

Were you running a roborumble client? If you do, your bot should show up within 15 minutes or so, but it might be a few hours before you have full pairings against all bots.

I was running but after the first 45 battles it was just starting to stay

Added Cannon vs Splooshlu in ? ms

I couldn't continue

How can I put my flag to the competition. You can find it in this link https://www.dropbox.com/s/srz702xfrsfph8q/TUR?dl=1 Thanks.

I've added TUR as an option, you can add yourself to the RoboRumble/Country Flags page =)

Thank you very much. Thanks for your help.

My bot WhiteFang uses auto-segmentation. Is it a good tactic and are there other robots doing that?

I mean that it tries to predict the best segments that could be used against it's enemy.

Most top bots simply use all segments at the same time, but with different weights. They are usually tuned offline.

There are some top bots using 2 sets of segments. 1 for a general purpose gun and 1 for an anti-surfer gun. And the best set of segments is estimated on-the-fly.

MN thank you. I used all the datas the average hit rate increased like % 0.8. After I added auto-tuning for setting weights and average hit rate increased about %0.9.

The 2 segments which differ most between different opponents are the real/virtual wave segment and the data decay (time) segment. These are the 2 usually separated between "general purpose" and "anti-surfer" sets of segments.

Note that using many different targeting strategies for different situations may slow down learning speed (time wasted auto-tuning the gun for the optimal strategy). Because of this, most top bots use only 1 or 2 guns.

I don't create a new gun and start it from the beginning. I test the segments alone and when they hit I multiply it with a default. So it keeps learning and uses the same kd-tree all the time. Also according to my results it increases learning.

This is the code of Tuning:(There are more code for intersection but the most simple one is this)

           if (Tools.getDistance(currentX, currentY, myXD, myYD) < 72) {
               AntiBotTuner.movementScores[index] *= 1.1;
           }

Usage of weights:

double diff = Math.abs(p1[index] - p2[index]) * dsekercioglu.AntiBotTuner.movementScores[i];

In the future versions I will also use an Anti-Surfer Gun.

my roborumble client can download your bot just fine. But during the execution, it emits the following errors

Got an error with dsekercioglu.Tomahawk: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: dsekercioglu/Tomahawk : Unsupported major.minor version 52.0

This means that you java sdk has newer version than mine. But it does not explain why it does not work on yout machine. What do you see in the rumble output?

It is getting stucked when the roborumble tries to upload battles

OK. Cannon vs Splooshlu added to queue in 107ms Please set your username in /robocode/roborumble/{rumblename}.txt! OK. Cannon vs Splooshlu added to queue in 5ms Please set your username in /robocode/roborumble/{rumblename}.txt! OK. Cannon vs Splooshlu added to queue in 6ms Please set your username in /robocode/roborumble/{rumblename}.txt!

like this forever.

Well, it quite clearly asks you to

Please set your username in /robocode/roborumble/{rumblename}.txt

just open this file, in your case 'roborumble.txt' and set 'USER' variable. It is at the very begining of the file.

I've done it it şs in the competition now

Thank you very much Beaming and Skillgannon!

I can see most of the undownloaded robots in the roborumble
