DeBroglie Roadmap / Development notepad / Brainstorming Sandbox
Development paused for now.. stalled on normalization fixes (for more appropriate dodging and firing decisions) as every subsequent version was inferior to rev108.
Frustration was getting the better of me, so I'm doing non-Robocode hobbies for a bit and letting the school year settle in before coming back to deBroglie.
