I would attribute the higher survival rate and lower score to firing lower power bullets at all, and not truly any kind of strategy in firing them. If you spend half of your time firing 0.1-powered bullets, you'll almost always get exactly that -- better survival, worse score. --nano
Boring! =) Well, certainly that's true, but those versions of M couldn't get better survival by just fireing say power 2 instead of power 3 bullets. But when less and less bots in the top20 used active dodging the strategy behind these guns was kind of pointless. That's one of the reasons I stopped using them. The main reason was that the code got messy when I tried to filter the statistics from the results of the cowboy guns. I still think this could be a working strategy. Though maybe it needs a minibot for proof of concept. Hmmmm. BillyTheKid?, is that name free for taking? =) -- PEZ
