Welcome to the Robowiki! Btw, it hasn't been miagrated to the new wiki yet, but the type of mirroring you refer to was in the past called 'CoordinateMirrorMovement' (as opposed to the other 'main' but less common type 'AngularMirrorMovement') Best of luck with your bot(s)! :) --Rednaxela 19:42, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, welcome! You said you've been Robocoding since 2002, are any of these ancient bots yours? I'm not sure what's up with the Robocode Repository... I know it's not exactly convenient, but if you want to e-mail me any bots (my handle at GMail), I'd gladly post them to my own web space. Or maybe I can get an upload form setup on the site here. --Voidious 16:16, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

Sadly I never uploaded any of my robots to the repository. They were lost with a ton of other stuff when my school migrated the server and lost 90% of my work from that year. I picked up robocoding again a few months ago and everything has changed since I last played. Now bots can draw, there's new things I've never heard of before like Guess Factors, segmentation, and Wave Surfing. --Tripphippy 13:54, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Welcome Tripphippy. As a courtesy: Your robot Alice 1.0 can't run in the melee rumble, because it uses SetDebugProperty. That's a function not yet used for the simulation. --Positive 23:58, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks! I had no idea why I was at the bottom of the ranking and got frustrated with robocode for a while. Maybe I will try again. Can someone confirm that my upload is no longer crashing on every match? --Tripphippy 19:05, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

You're welcome. Yes, the new version works. You'll have to change the version number though (package name & melee participants list), for it to be picked up by the RR@H clients. --Positive 19:32, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
