With version 9.0.1, I finally passed the 80 APS mark for the first time. Also back over 2000 on Glicko-2. Only other time that happened was way back on version 6.8. Still haven't passed my previous highest rank yet though, due to some tough new competitors since I started (Ixx, Chase, and others). Version 6.8 APS at the time was about 79.6, good enough for #42. Version 9.0.1 at the moment is 80.0 APS, rank #45. I'm convinced I can improve on this further; I just need more time to work on it.

I was here before you started, I just hadn't released any of my advanced (and unfinished) prototypes.

I ran a test, and to my surprise, my guess factor gun works as well as my circular gun and linear gun against circular and linear drivers. I've therefore reluctantly removed the gun array I was using, which included my linear and circular guns in addition to my main guess factor gun. Reluctantly, because I put so much work into developing those algorithms when I first started Robocode, so I hate to sideline them. But they are no longer providing any advantage, and at times are a little problematic. So away they go. However, my linear gun is still used against ramming robots for the time being, so they are not gone entirely.

Nene is pretty good at dodging close range linear targeting.
