Thanks for the very warm welcome! I'll get round to formatting this properly later, when I have more time, but for now: I'm still a student, maths being my favourite subject (relationship to RoboCode there obvious). My first decent robot was eventbot, an attempt at using an event manager, and my current robot is Omega (omega1 actually, but that's just because I didn't realise that the version number was added when packaging ;) It's hovering around 1500 rating in RR@H (is that good/bad? I don't really know what that correlates to) and as soon as I can get my new wall avoidance systems running (Omega currently has no wall avoidance, and my test version currently works half the time, and goes crazy before crashing the other half) I'll be updating Omega.
I'm also interested in looking at TeamRobots?, since that seems like an area where people haven't already discovered everything interesting.
BTW, with the 1.5 beta RoboCode, I can't make RoboRumble actually work - whenever I run the RoboRumble bat file, the command prompt comes up, then exits (I'm using XP). Any ideas? -- CharlieN
Welcome! 1500 is pretty good for a first bot (the rumble adapts to get an 'average' of 1600). Feel free to take a look at RandomMovementBot for an idea of how to do a very effective wall avoidance method. And I gotta agree with you about TeamRobots?, that section of the rumble is very underdeveloped. I'm not sure about the 1.5 rumble problem, I'm using 1.4.9 for rumble (or I will, when I get all my stuff moved into the new house). -- Skilgannon
Skilgannon: Just checked it with 1.4.9, exactly the same. This is irratating me now. -- CharlieN
