That's what I did at first and why I ever bothered with drawing that EscapeArea... But it wasn't good since the EscapeArea is shaped like an hour glass at a right angle from the gunning robot with its waist where the target robot is. That makes a random point inside the area very often end up at the far ends of the EscapeArea which makes for a predictable movement. Now I instead pick a random angle between maxAngle and minAngle. If I had done it today I would probably have used a Line2D instead of an Area. You can imagine that I realy wanted to get RobocodeGLV014 to work on my machine while I experimiented with this EscapeArea business, can't you? =) -- PEZ |
