Background Information

What's special about it?
Nothing, unless you count it has 250+ surfing buffers.
How competitive is it?
Not really.

Strategy

How does it move?
True Surfing with precise wave intersection. I use modified DrussGT buffer system so it has 100 surfing buffers, 50 flatteners buffer and 100 non-firing wave surfing buffers.
How does it fire?
Play-It Forward gun, cluster size of 100 and uses following dimensions:
  • Distance
  • Velocity
  • Relative Heading (Perpendicularity)
  • Moving Direction (sign(lateral velocity))
  • Angled distance last 2/4/8
  • Wall forward/backward
What does it save between rounds and matches?
Nothing between matches.

Additional Information

Can I use your code?
Available under NPRL/2.1 per request.
Does it have any White Whales?
We'll see
What's the next for this robot?
Tweaks.
What other robot(s) is it based on?
  • The buffer system is shamelessly copy from DrussGT.
  • The precise wave intersection code modified from DrussGT.
  • Wall distance/smoothing code is from Simonton (via DrussGT)
  • KdTree (bullet power tree for non-firing wave surfing) and BinUtils are Rednaxela's
  • Movement Predictor base very loosely on Apollon (not visible)
  • The code is based on BasicSurfer.
  • I learn a lot from Dookious too.
  • I use ABC's Play-it-forward code as a base for my play-it-forward gun.
