BeepBoop seems to be the new king

Congratulation! BeebBoop is at the very top.

Do you mind to hint about new top of the line research direction?

Congratulations (again) from me too ;) BeepBoop since 1.2 had very surprising results (nearly 95!!!). And yet nothing worked when I tried to use gradient descent in training models. Would you mind to share a little bit more about this section? E.g. initialization, learning rate, how to prevent getting zero or negative exponent in x^a formula…

Thanks! My guess for the next innovation that could improve bots is active bullet shadowing. Instead of always shooting at the angle your aiming model gives as most likely to hit, it is probably better to sometimes shoot at an angle that is less likely to hit if it creates helpful bullet shadows for you. This idea would especially help against strong surfers whose movements have really flat profiles (so there isn’t much benefit from aiming precisely). I never got around to implementing it, so it remains to be seen if it actually is useful!
