Great, I can't wait to start writing higher cpu bots. It will also allow new people to more easily write something. :) Erik, I've read over your robowar...
Im afraid I can't :). My original intention was to make it 3D or eventually on the surface of a sphere (a moebius band was considered as well :)) so i decided...

Hey Kevin Nice to hear from you too. I have to admit that I havent been keeping up with what has been happening with robowar, but it does seem be going...
Yeah, well since you were gone I resigned as coder/manager. I was heavily neglecting other important things in my life for programming. I'm not coming back....
... I'm still interested, but I still think there should be a change first to make it easier to program something. I believe the most simple solution would be...
Hey, everybody. It's been over ten years since I started playing, and I assumed RoboWar was dead; nice to see I was wrong! I'm wondering if anyone out there...
I'm interested! I'm also useless on the development side of things, so all I can promise is to work on some robots over winter break. ... wouldn't be ... ...

I think the game has been pretty dead for a while. The KOTH thing is the first "event' in...
Wow someone out of robowar legend...... you know what would be fun to see, a robowar veterans tournament... think about it. The game is mostly played on...
Just for the record, I'm actually still alive, I just haven't been active for a bit. Unfortunately, I was running the official tournaments again so that's...

Well I just wanted to say that I’m still alive, but alas, I don’t do much on my bots right now, mostly because there is no one to battle against.:S _____ ...

... This is not what KOTH is currently intending to do. For that sort of thing, I would redirect you to my BotB or genepool tournaments, but my site went down ...
I still have all the results that were ever public (sorry my site is gone, I'll make another at some point), but they are saved on a computer I won't have ...

NEAREST register for all bots. This makes it much easier to program new bots and also makes it easier for new players to get going. RSPEED, does the same as...

I guess the other register along the same lines would be a "Range sync Range -", or similar to doppler but for radial speed instead of tangential. (Real...

I agree on the "nearest" register. I'm also willing to go out on a limb and say that if the "nearest" register is implemented, that we can just do away with...

The Nearest' is a good line of thinking. However, I think in groupmode you still need or want to see where all other robots are so you might still need aim...
Increasing CPU time might be interesting, although there is a risk that the game just becomes more complicated. As it is now with 50 ins/c CPU you are almost...

Yeah, I completely agree with you, Viktor. [I was fairly tired as I wrote the rest, my appologies for length and/or incomprehesibility] Maybe we should make a...
I guess to address the CPU changes we have to answer one basic question about Robowar. Is Robowar a programming game or a strategy game? If it is a...
