I think it would help if we in this article listed many of the causes of wave surfing. That is to say the small details that usually hold up an implementation of wave surfing. Listing the usual problems will serve as a useful checklist for future wave surfers if nothing else. Considering I have never gotten past 'wave suffering' I am far from the idea author for this article. — Chase-san 11:23, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Hi, I have a problem that I discovered while trying to perfect my wave surfing, though it may be unrelated. Basically, I am getting impossible values for the enemy position and it seems to be caused by some inaccuracy in my absolute bearings, which appear to be off by up to 20 degrees. What makes this even wierder, is that I calculate this value twice (once for my gun, and once for the wave surfing) and they are both identical, so I should't be accidentally changing them. As if that wasn't odd enough, I tested this morning and didn't notice this bug (the waves are painted with the centers at incorrect points, so I think I would have noticed this). Any ideas on what could be causing this? (I am perfectly willing to give the source code, but it is very long and the bot isn't quite ready for the rumble yet so I haven't uploaded it anywhere.)--AW 02:46, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
