Background

This is my first experiment with WaveSurfing. It has been done before I had a chance to read the excellent Wave Surfing Tutorial, so it included some WaveSuffering. But to be frank, that wasn't that bad. On the other hand I solved most problems in a different way, probably less efficient.

This bot is uncompetitive by design. It doesn't use any segmentation - it's just to check how much different implementation issues matter.

History

  • Alpha - 1042.3 points

Doesn't care about which waves are associated with bullets that actually hit it. This makes it essentially a curve flattener. No wonder it scores around MakoHT.

  • Beta - 1119.4 points

Pretty much the same code, but gives 10 times more attention to waves that carry a bullet that hit it. Big advance, improved against almost all reasonable bots. Some exceptions are Wolverine, Cigaret, FloodNano and Leopard. See the pattern? ;)
