Background Information

What's special about it?

Nothing really special, but it is a culmination of the work laid out by former and current Robocode authors. I do however plan to retire this robot in the near future unless I manage to find a better movement strat.

How competitive is it?

Currently ranked #14 in NanoRumble.

Strategy

How does it move?

Uses normal One-Way Oscillation then switches to Random movement after a few deaths.

How does it fire?

It uses Pattern Matching.

How does it dodge bullets?

Just relies on randomness.

Additional Information

Where did you get the name?

Gokdeniz is a CIWS, I think from Turkey.

Can I use your code?

All good!

What's next for your robot?

This has probably reached its peak without the use of look-up tables.

Does it have any White Whales?

It doesn't have any particular weaknesses, but it scores lowest against Parallax.

What other robot(s) is it based on?

Pattern Matching from Foilist, WeekendObsession and Yatagan. Idea of death counts from Sabreur.

And of course, even if I'm "late in the game" I'd still want to give a huge thank you to all the contributors on the wealth of information on both Old and Current RoboWiki.
