Background Information

What's special about it?
  • Best defending bot under the Japanese flag (strangely enough!)
  • It uses Heat Waves like RougeDC and DrussGT.
  • It uses Passive Bullet Shadowing.
  • It's structure is more like a tower then most robots branching tree.
  • It's version is currently longer then its name!
  • It is an interface based robot!
How competitive is it?
Strangely enough very well, at least compared to my other past robots. With just Raiko's gun it ranks 22th, placing it well within The 2000 Club.

Strategy

How does it move?
Uses precise intersection wave surfing. It also does some nice minimal risk that avoids getting trapped in corners when there are no waves around, also makes it do well against rambots.
How does it fire?
It uses Raiko's gun, so see that page for details.
How does it dodge bullets?
It surfs!
How does the melee strategy differ from one-on-one strategy?
It doesn't know anything about melee (not even radar!)
How does it select a target to attack/avoid in melee ?
It has melee?
What does it save between rounds and matches?
Between matches: Nothing.
Between rounds: KdTree movement data. Whatever Raiko saves gun-wise.

Additional Information

Where did you get the name?
It was actually named after a character in a story I was writing at the time. A very happy positive somewhat hyper girl. I never actually expected to release it.
Can I use your code?
Sure thing you can use my code. Sure, at the moment all versions are under the RWPCL.
What's next for your robot?
Finishing the movement, which isn't even done yet.
After that I plan to start work on the gun, hopefully by that time it is already ranked 12 to 14 (or top 10 maybe :).
Does it have any White Whales?
To the last I grapple with thee; from hell's heart I stab at thee; for hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee.
Ah ha, despite that very epic quote I have no real whales that need hunting.
What other robot(s) is it based on?
Seraphim for it's precise prediction originally. I have read many other robots and I gained some insights from DrussGT and Diamond. But I don't use any of their code directly. Mostly learned from descriptions on the wiki. I do use Rednaxela's KdTree however.
