My next experiment: goto path surfing. It works by choosing (currently) 31 impact points on each wave, spread out across GF -1 to 1, then plotting the path through them with the least sum of the dangers. It currently works like this, which will become more sophisticated with time:

  • For each Wave choose 31 GuessFactors, spread out across GFs -1 to 1, being sure to include local minimum danger points.
  • To find the best path from a given point:
    • Find the next wave to strike that point.
    • Find the points on that wave that meet the 31 chosen GFs AND could be reached from this point along the path of maximum escape.
    • Recurse to find the danger of each of those points.
    • Choose the point with the least danger.
    • Add in the danger of this point, add this point to the best path so far, and return.

So far there's very humble beginnings:

Versions

  • 0057: 0054 + Accelerates before pointing straight at its destination.
  • 0058: Add 1% noise to wave dangers. I don't have high hopes for this, but am still very interested to see the results.
  • 0059: 0057 + add back gunheat surfing when there are 0 or 1 other in-flight waves, except this time doing it correctly! (hopefully) Thanks for the tips, Rednaxela!
  • 0060: Surf the gunheat wave no matter how many other waves are in-flight.
  • 0061: Angle-based distancing (preferred 500), based off perpendicular from the line of the last destination to center of the next wave.
  • 0062: Different danger calculation that accounts for closeness taking up more "bins".
  • 0063: Add distance dimension.
  • 0064: Add time-since-direction-change dimension.
  • 0065: Switch the time-since to the almost-equivalent (but maybe importantly different) time-since-orientation-change.
  • 0066: Use only lateral velocity dimension.
  • 0067: Dimensions: Lateral velocity, forward wall distance, distance, time since orientation change
  • 0068: Same dimensions as 67, but pieces the cluster together from smaller clusters using every combination of segments that include lateral velocity.
  • 0069: Slightly different travel angle calculation, to (hopefully) smooth out the wall approach slightly. As a side effect, lessens the retreat angle when too close to the enemy (and increases attack angle when too far away).
  • 0070: Bugfix to time-since-orientation change dimension (it was only working clockwise). 0067 + smoother angles of 0069.
  • 0071: Add back splicing of smaller clusters from 0069.
  • 0072: Using combinations of dimensions for weighting, instead of making separate clusters for each. An idea from Rednaxela
  • 0073: Throw some more dimensions at it. Now: lateral velocity, retreating velocity, distance, forward wall distance, reverse wall distance, and time since orientation change.
  • 0074: Use squared Euclidean distance between scans (formerly Manhattan).
  • 0075: Add a time dimension (some kind of attempt at stat decay).
  • 0076: Back to Manhattan scan distance.
  • 0077: Promote forward & backward wall distance to be in every combination of dimensions (along with lateral velocity and time).
  • 0078: A stab at dynamic weighting of dimensions. Back to only lat. vel. and time being included in every combination of dimensions.
  • 0079: Bugfix in the travel angle calculation introduced in 0069 (and present since). Also accidentally changed the behavior when no waves are in the air (getting ahead of myself).
  • 0080: My distancing code was not behaving as I thought all this time (since introduced in 0048). Now it works as I intended. Also changed be behavior when no waves are in the air, tweaked against GrubbmThree.
  • 0081: Vibrate instead of standing still, to get a boost in acceleration 1/2 the time.
  • 0082: Reduce the retreat angle, to be 1/2 way between 0079 & 0080.
  • 0083: 0082. No change. Just running it again to see how much difference there is in the scores after 75 seasons.
  • 0084: Bugfix: starting in 0079 there was a bug that ruined precise prediction when there was enough time standing still to delay turning toward the next destination. I think the end result of this bug was to reduce escape angle in such a situation.
  • 0085: Surf 41 points per wave, down from 61. This seems to be enough to put a decent gun on top with pretty few skipped turns :).
  • 0086: Surf 31 points per wave.
  • 0087: Surf 21 points per wave.
  • 0088: Settle on 31 points per wave. Calculate travel angle based of the most recently fired enemy wave, instead of the one currently being surfed. Run on a normal CPU constant!!
  • 0089: Rolling depth for dynamic weighting: was it 5 or 20? (changed from 10)
  • 0090: Rolling depth for dynamic weighting: was it 5 or 20?
  • 0091: No dynamic weighting.
  • 0095: Mostly refactoring. Also better handling of waves during collisions, and can no longer get "trapped" in the middle of the field by a rambot (by continually trying to orbit one direction only to find the other bot in the way).
