I was working for a micro bot and I found a new type of multi-mode movement system.(I think)

Simply it is:

• Complexity starts from 0.
• Every time the bot dies, it increases the complexity.
• Every time the enemy fires call setAhead(getDir(complexity)).

    public double getDir(int complexity) {
        double extraMove; 
        double moveDir = extraMove = 1.0 / complexity;
        for(int i = 1; i < complexity; i++) {
            moveDir += Math.sin(getTime() / i / (10.0 / (complexity + 1)));
        }
        return Math.signum(moveDir) * ((extraMove + 18) * (complexity + 1));
    }

Just with this code these happen:

• First round: Musashi trick.
• Second round: Stop'n go.
• Third round: Random(not actually random) stop'n go.
• Fourth round: Musashi trick + stop'n go + not random.
• Fifth round: Oscillator movement.

Any thoughts?

Sorry for double post. Also like this it is possible to make Musashi Trick + Stop And Go + Random Movement

    public double getDir(int complexity) {
        double move = 1.0 / complexity;
        return move * 36 + (Math.signum(--complexity) * (Math.random() * 256 - 128));
    }

I would say simply stop'n go then random.

It can easily be done by starting with a complexity of 1.
