Wall Smoothing

I'm sometimes seeing ScalarBot hitting the walls and turning it's gun in the opposite direction. Maybe a bug with your wall smoothing?

Yes I see ScalarBot hitting the wall quite often in the initial of the round, but I never noticed that the gun could turn in the opposite direction because of this. Is the gun turning away from the enemy?

Yes, I took a screenshot but I don't know how to put it in the wiki. =)

It also turns it radar in the opposite direction.

You can use Special:Upload ;)

Btw, does that happen before first scan, or is that in the middle of the round?

I think that it is in the middle of the round. Rechner's energy was 80 and ScalarBot's was 20. I'm sure that it didn't lose energy by hitting.

Just had a look in my radar — it never ever handles lose of scan. So if I ever skipped a turn, the radar may lose scan forever.

Btw, which version of ScalarBot are you testing? And are you running the robocode with Java 9?

And is the radar and gun still turning when you take the snapshot? I think it may turn forever if it lost scan.

Btw, is your battlefield 800 x 600?

It is 800x600 battlefield, ScalarBot 012n2.4.7 and Java 8.

Thanks for your information! I just rewrote the radar (and also tweaked the movement) to make it more robust when skipping turns.
