For some reason I cannot access robocoderepository.com, does anyone know why that might be?--CrazyBassoonist 02:25, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

I've been having troubles since monday. is the pages not loading or a 404 thing? --HACKhalo2 02:28, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

I don't have any problem. Maybe your ISP blocked it? » Nat | Talk » 06:50, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

I'm not sure. It will load for me on one computer, but not on the one with Robocode on it.--CrazyBassoonist 12:15, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Bad Results

For some reason, the new Acraepheus was doing well then started getting zeros. Is this the result of a bug with a different version of robocode, or bad results being uploaded?--CrazyBassoonist 22:01, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

By the way, I have 1.6.2--CrazyBassoonist 22:08, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

The results I'm running show your bot doing fairly well. Perhaps it is a client issue or something. --Miked0801 22:41, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

It appears the Voidious's server is the one giving you all the 0s. Perhaps you have an exception or something that only shows up in version 1.5.4? Dunno. --Miked0801 22:44, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

You're right, thank you very much for drawing that to my attention. Does anyone know of any issues like this that occur in 1.5.4 but not in other versions?--CrazyBassoonist 22:50, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Argh, not sure what the problem is, but killed my clients for now. I'll add you to my exclude list before I start 'em again until we figure it out. --Voidious 23:00, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Thanks. By now I'm guessing that what I need to do is figure out what is making errors in 1.5.4 and fix it then re-upload those versions. --CrazyBassoonist 23:06, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Sorry, I was on my way out the door before. Here's the error being hit in 1.5.4:

Acraepheus 2.2 (1): Throwable: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: oog.Acraepheus.getGraphics()Ljava/awt/Graphics2D;

I don't mind updating my clients, but unfortunately, there's no guarantee someone else won't run 1.5.4 as long as it's still allowed...

--Voidious 23:52, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

And I believe that error would happen in 1.6.0 too, I had the same problem once, since then I always get the Graphics2D object out of the onPaint method only. --zyx 01:03, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

Well it looks like it's just a problem with the debugging graphics. Line 75 is this:

Graphics 2D g=getGraphics();

Shouldn't hurt that much to remove it, I probably should have left the debugging graphics out anyway.--CrazyBassoonist 00:32, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

I've now got it fixed, thanks for the help. How long does it take the rumble to remove robots that have been removed from the participants list? Even some of my very old robots seem to be there still--CrazyBassoonist 01:08, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
