Background Information
- What's special about it?
- MyFirstTeam is a team of one MyFirstLeader and four MyFirstDroid bots. It may be the most complex of all the Sample Bots. It demonstrates:
- The AdvancedRobot setXXX() methods (e.g.
setTurnRadarRight()). - Logging to the console with
out.println(). - Calculating enemy coordinates in
onScannedRobot()with Robocode trigonometry. - Aiming the gun at a given coordinate.
- Constructing and using auxiliary data classes (
PointandRobotColors). - Using the TeamRobot communication methods.
- Having the leader set the entire team's color scheme, by broadcasting a
RobotColorsobject. This allows all robots' colors to be changed just by modifying MyFirstLeader.
- The AdvancedRobot setXXX() methods (e.g.
- How competitive is it?
- TeamRumble ‒ APS: 15.76% (42nd), PL: 3-40 (41st), Survival: 10.14%
Strategy
- How does it move?
- MyFirstLeader moves in the exact same way as MyFirstRobot. MyFirstDroid does not move.
- How does it fire?
- MyFirstLeader constantly rotates its Radar and broadcasts enemy locations. All MyFirstDroids try to fire 3.0-power bullets at the last coordinate they received.
- How does it dodge bullets?
- When MyFirstLeader is hit by a bullet, it turns perpendicular to the bullet.
- How does the melee strategy differ from one-on-one strategy?
- No difference.
- How does it select a target to attack/avoid in melee?
- No explicit target selection. Each droid tries to fire whenever it receives a coordinate, and if its gun heat happens to be zero, it fires.
- What does it save between rounds and matches?
- Nothing and nothing.
