Note for you, Horizon Component System broke in 1.7. It cannot perform a radar lock so it can't dodge/fire effectively. Try robocode 1.6.0 or 1.6.1 and let see can you get score at this rate high? » Nat | Talk » 02:28, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Shoot, 1.6.1 doesn't work on my computer. Strange...Awesomeness 02:52, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to Robocode Awesomeness, good luck and have fun. Shout when in trouble. --zyx 03:09, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to the wiki indeed! About Horizon, maybe Horizon is fixed as of 1.7.1 Beta2? I haven't tested 1.7.1 Beta2 yet. And Nat, any reason you haven't made a bug report for it or is it the same bug as one already reported? --Rednaxela 03:21, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

• I haven't download the 1.7beta2 yet. But, about bug report, I completely forget! Thanks for remind. I think there isn't anyone know this except me. » Nat | Talk » 11:25, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Um... I do have one problem. Whenever I try to use things such as GF targeting, Surfing, etc. The tutorials never use the methods properly or something. It gives a can't find symbol error for every custom method in the code. =/ -- Awesomeness

Er, what method are you using to compile it? The tutorials are using methods just fine. --Rednaxela 03:45, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

The compiler ALWAYS gives me errors unless I set it to "-classpath /Users/student/Documents/Robocode/libs/robocode.jar". Maybe that's cuz I use a mac. Awesomeness 14:36, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Er, you always need to include the classpath if you're compiling from the command line normally. It has nothing to do with using a mac. The only way to go without it is either by including it in the CLASSPATH environment variable, or using an IDE like Eclipse --Rednaxela 17:16, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

I'm not using a terminal to compile, I'm just changing the compiler settings for the classpath. I really need GF or PM targeting for my bot! =( Awesomeness 19:01, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

So what are you using? The editor/compiler built into Robocode? It should work straight out the box... --Skilgannon 19:25, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

I use the Javac thingy, not Jikes. It doesn't matter which I use, I'm pretty sure, I seem to get the same output for them no matter which compiler I use. Same errors with the default classpath.

NEVERMIND!!! YEEEAAAHHH! I got GuessFactor targeting to work perfectly! And with my already good movement strategy, it's awesome! I'm so proud of myself because I thought up this movement concept myself, and I checked, no one else uses it! It's a truly original strategy! I think...

Umm... I just had a thought... If two robots battle each other and use static variables with the same name(s), will the robots mess up? --Awesomeness

Nope, they won't. Robocode loads each robot with a seperate classloader, which makes it so individual robots in battle keep completely seperated static data. --Rednaxela 02:23, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
