Ha, I should find some of my old crap-bots and see how poorly(or well) they do. I haven't noticed, but is there a RoboWar version for Mac OS X? ... Partake the...
Hi everyone, I think robowar should really have an error log. It would make debugging a lot easier. My robot basically runs flawlessly, but when I test it in...
