Galanoth

A new bot I am creating. It goes back to basics on targeting, as CircularTargeting actually hits WaveSurfing pretty good. I think I will still use Python's movement. It may use ChaseBullets as soon as i can get them implemented without Galanoth always firing .1 power bullets and never his normal 3s. Completion: 85.2%

I have successfully implemented ChaseBullets - if you need some code, I'd be happy to post some... of course, you'll probably get it working on your own. -- Greywhind

CircularTargeting is not a bad choice, but I wouldn't implement it just because you think it hits WaveSurfers. If you check out the MovementChallenge2K6, you'll see that good WaveSurfers score very well against CircularTargeting; a 95% vs WaveSurfingChallengeBotC means about 1 hit per 3 battles, which is a less than 1% hit percentage for CT against a good surfer.

While I probably didn't follow it well enough myself, I think jim's mantra (about the top bots) is a good one: "first beat everyone else as bad as they do, and then beat them." Anyway, best of luck with your new tank!
