Diamond - Version History - Code

• 1.115 - 5/25/2009
  • MeleeRumble - ELO: 1643.2 (7th), PL: 261-5, Glicko-2: 1747.0, Survival: 87.671%
  • RoboRumble - No 1v1 changes.
  • Removed random direction change timer.
  • Tweaked risk from (Diamond's) recent locations.
  • Note: Best "bug-free" version in APS comparison. Only down .1% from 1.111 (w/performance enhancing bug), up .3% from 1.11 (bug fixed version). Good enough for me, so now I can move on with my life. =)

  • RoboRumble - No 1v1 changes.
  • Reverting the change to current heading / random direction change code.
  • Note: Trying to figure out which of the minor changes in 1.11 caused a .4% APS drop.
  • Note #2: Yep, I've officially got a Performance Enhancing Bug on my hands.
• 1.11 - 5/23/2009
  • MeleeRumble - ELO: 1644.6 (6th), PL: 258-4, Glicko-2: 1746.7, Survival: 87.17%
  • RoboRumble - No 1v1 changes.
  • Fixed a bug in the Wave Surfing HoT avoidance (when there's no data to surf) - was marking negative GFs as dangerous, too.
  • Fixed a bug where Diamond might shoot himself disabled.
  • Fixed a bug in the current heading / random direction changing code.
  • Enhanced Wave Surfing debugging graphics, including drawing color-coded dangers along two closest waves.
  • Only executes graphical debugging code if painting is enabled. (This also fixed the buffer-overflow I was hitting when enabling paint mid-match.)
• 1.09 - 5/23/2009
  • MeleeRumble - ELO: 1653.0 (6th), PL: 259-3, Glicko-2: 1752.5, Survival: 88.62%

  • Myriad Wave Surfing tweaks:
    • Changed several scan distancing dimensions: removed time since direction change, added time since velocity change, added distance last eight ticks, tweaked weights.
    • Fixed one more off-by-1 bug in the surfing (using my location from 3 ticks ago instead of 2).
    • Fixed the bandwidth used in kernel density calculations. (I'd set it to a static 0.1 as a placeholder, should be based on distance.)
    • Added a mechanic for factoring in similar scans from recent rounds in addition to similar scans from the whole match.
• 1.08 - 5/22/2009
  • MeleeRumble - ELO: 1655.6 (6th), PL: 258-4, Glicko-2: 1754.0, Survival: 88.79%

• 1.072 - 5/21/2009
  • MeleeRumble - ELO: 1660.4 (6th), PL: 257-5, Glicko-2: 1756.5, Survival: 88.51%
  • RoboRumble - No 1v1 changes.
  • Fixed off-by-1-bug in the movement, once and for all (I hope).
• 1.071 - 5/20/2009
  • MeleeRumble - ELO: 1658.9 (6th), PL: 257-5, Glicko-2: 1753.4, Survival: 88.15%

  • MeleeRumble - Pulled
  • RoboRumble - No 1v1 changes.
  • Reverted tweak to perpendicularity factor.
  • Tweaked risk to enemies' recent locations.
  • Tweaked anti-being-targeted factor - count bots 10% closer instead of just bots closer.
  • Tried to fix the off-by-1 bug, introduced a different one.
• 1.06 - 5/19/2009
  • MeleeRumble - ELO: 1663.9 (6th), PL: 258-4, Glicko-2: 1754.3, Survival: 88.61%
  • RoboRumble - No 1v1 changes.
  • Re-introduced some risk to enemies' recent locations.

• 1.05 - 5/19/2009
  • MeleeRumble - ELO: 1669.1 (6th), PL: 260-2, Glicko-2: 1758.1, Survival: 88.71%
  • RoboRumble - No 1v1 changes.
  • Rolled back all movement changes from 1.03 and 1.04, except:
    • Greatly reduced weight of previously dominant anti-being-targeted factor.

    • Tweaked reverse direction timer.
    • Added corner distance risk factor.
    • Greatly reduced weight of previously dominant anti-being-targeted factor.
    • Tweaked risk of enemies' recent locations: fewer, more recent points, much higher weight.
  • Risk evaluation debugging graphics now based off standard deviations, capped at -1.5/+1.5. A lot more meaningful (used to get many pure blue points when a few were super duper risky).
• 1.03 - 5/17/2009

  • A bunch of gun tweaks, including a gun heat dimension (only used in 1v1), time since velocity change instead of direction change, and tweaked dimension weights.
  • Note: Didn't expect much rating change, but wanted to know that there wasn't, going forward.
