My name is Nat Pavasant. I'm a 16-year-old robocoder from Thailand. I was first introduced to Robocode sometime in 2006 when I was 11 years old. I didn't remember where I found it but I wasn't very good at English at that time so I couldn't find this wiki. From time to time, I mainly played on a modified version of Wall, but I never dealed with AdvancedRobots. Not long after, I got bored and returned to PHP programming. Later in July 2007, I found a notice of Cubic Thailand National Robocode Tournament 2007. I took another look at my old installation of Robocode in my computer but didn't get further than the last time I played on it. Again, I returned to PHP programming. In the middle of 2008 I saw another word about Robocode on my the NSC software contest in my country. In the example of the proposals they listed contains one software called Robo-Rookie which implemented Junior Robot visual editor via Flash.

September 2008 is when I entered the Robocode community. I was a lot better at English and started to seek articles about GuessFactor Targeting that I've heard a lot about for a long time. I didn't understand any part, neither simple or hard, of it. The first robots I've ever downloaded are Tigger and SpareParts, then Gladiator and Dookious. It was still really, really hard so I decided to learn Quick Targeting (say HOT, LT and CT) first. I took a look at NanoBots because I thought they would make me understand it easier. But, unfortunately, many nano-bot code are super-optimized for codesize and made me having a headache on it. Anyway, my first robot is a NanoBot after reading many many robots' source to understand non-blocking call. I was so silly that I was waiting/reloading Pulsar's old server ranking page for a day and realized that I need to look at Darkcanuck's instead.

Bots

Order by creation date.

• Ocnirp: My first competitive robot. Nano-sized.
  • OcnirpSNG: Sister of Ocnirp, featuring Stop And Go movement on the top of the old random movement.
  • OcnirpPM: Ocnirp with PM that that match on both lateral velocity and advancing velocity but predict using lateral velocity only.
• BlackHole: My truly first bot (I mean, I wrote more than 70% of it myself) and my first long developed robot.
• NP: A Velocity Surfing microbot.
• Samekh: My experiment (really)
• Pallas/PallasHawk
• Asteroid/Ceres: A robot framework/base designed with reusable components with other AdvancedRobots and/or other frameworks/bases (like Module etc.). Will be released when I completed my robots. Based directly on Red's BotBase with some ideas from Module, PluggableRobot and DrawingBot/Nfwu's Gfx/Diamond's Gfx.

Also, check out my free code.

Planned Future Robots

• HyperRobot: An extend-robot bot which has Wave Surfing.

Current Developing Robots

but I hardly find a time to work on it.

• Simpler: by name :-)
• TheRiver: Trying to do full Melee Surfing.
• BlackHole v2

Obsolete/Retired robots

• Carola: My first, public, nano-sized and shameless robot. Almost everything is taken from WeekendObsession. Retired, for the shame it gave me =)
• NanoKitty: A nano bot. First designed for One-one-One, but it uses Head-On Targeting so it's better in melee. Retired.
• SwodniwMR: A nano bot that is completely designed for melee, fires head-on and move randomly. Retired.
• AtomicMini: A melee robot and my second shameless robot since the movement is entirely from Shiz and the gun from MiniTron. Retied.
  • MiniAtomicOperation: A group of 5 AtomicMinis. Retired.
• AW: Test bot. One-on-one with HUNRobar-style AOM. Comes with Simonton's Pattern Matching gun as usual for my nanobots. Retired.
• Hebe: My test of my crazy ideas. StopNGo movement and Circular Targeting. Retired.
• Mysterious: Failed attempt at nano adaptive movement.

Unreleased Robots

Don't want me to list all of my unreleased, there's a LOT. Here are some:

• Juno, another vapourware after Pallas.
• Aquazyned and few A... bot.
• Pencil, MilkyWay, Galaxy, Mercury
• ... and lot other.

Goals

• Get the throne of all rumble.
  • but I currently focus on general melee/roborumble.
• Be the youngest who entered The 2000 Club and The 2100 Club!
• Be the first one who breaks the 2200 beerier!
• Having PHP plugins for robocode =D
