Hey! Do you have to remove the "Inactive Authors" category now? =) --Voidious 17:31, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
Lol - I think I already did. Gotta upload an Infinty page now that I fixed a minor bug with him.
Hey man, I happened to randomly notice that an old version of BrokenSword is appearing in the melee rumble. Did you point your client at the new RoboRumble/Participants/Melee page? Actually I don't know how that would happen anyway, unless it uses the last participants list it saw if it can't find the list. Or maybe you just had some cached / unuploaded results from the last time you ran it? --Voidious 20:06, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
Good call. Just fixed that. Sorry for the out of date files being added. I'm running the new link now. Someone's going to have to clean up my mess on that one. --Miked0801
Just to let you know, I've noticed you signing with --[[User:Miked0801|Miked0801]] or --[[User:Miked0801]]. Just to let you know, on the new wiki you can simply sign with --~~~~ (or the signature button if you have js enabled), and it'll automatically turn it to a complete signature including timestamp even. Just a tip :) --Rednaxela 17:01, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
- Yep, someone else let me know that too. :) --Miked0801 20:36, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
Oh hey, speaking of code shrinking, I just thought I'd point out the new "Rules" class if you hadn't seen it. I resisted using it for the longest time to ensure compatibility with old Robocodes, but it's been in there for a while and we now have a way of filtering out old clients anyway. So now I'm compiling with Jikes and Robocode 1.4.9, so I can use Rules but still compile with Jikes. --Voidious 14:21, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
Alright, what is this rules class you speak of? --Miked0801 17:54, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
The robocode.Rules class can be used to calculate the max turn rate, bullet power, bullet damage and so on. It is the one use by game engine, and it is now public. » Nat | Talk » 18:12, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
(edit conflict) It's a utilities class that provides methods for a bunch of basic stuff, like bullet speed, damage, turn rate, etc. Rules class in Robocode API. It's definitely an unfair advantage over legacy bots, but that's your decision to grapple with. =) --Voidious 18:16, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
I checked it out and none of its functions would have use in DustBunny nor Infinity, though bullet speed would become useful for linear leading if I stored my firepower instead of just calculating in place. --Miked0801 20:33, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
Your client seems to be uploading 1-on-1 results for retired bots? stelo.PastFuture 1.0, for example. This is easy to fix but if there is a bigger problem going on... --Darkcanuck 03:55, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
Perhaps I've got the wrong page pointed at (again) for rumble. I'll check when I get home. --Miked0801 20:27, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
Hi, it's good to see a 'veteran' coming back and working on nanos. :D I have been on rest since the beginning of April, but now I think I should do something to get back the top 3 rank. ;) --HUNRobar 16:02, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
- First Place in Melee and 1v1 are sooo close. I got back into this again because I've got some late night hours free with a newborn - just like last time I got into the fun. Come on, just 1% in each. There's gotta be something I can tweak to get that right? :) --Miked0801 18:49, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
Just watch out because I'm going to make an update on my top bots. :) See Pugio 1.3 for example. ;) --HUNRobar 19:13, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
- Wow, nice update. Game on! --Miked0801 20:28, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
Are we allowed to use: Vector<Double> vect = new Vector<Double>();
type things and set the "-source 1.5" flag for our bots? If so, that will save some codesize for me.
