PulsarNano

Tell, tell! -- PEZ

Well just something I started while waiting for results on PulsarMax really, first it was to test some of my very fundemental movement things in PulsarMax, but I couldn't resist to add guns etc. Let me tell you, 250 codesize is restricting!! Had to scratch most of my ideas at once! My hope now is to learn something more about the basics of Robocode and fighting simple bots. So no real contender, though I might make a melee version too with a few simple changes -- Pulsar

This Nano-bot thing was addicting and a very good distraction when waiting for PulsarMax TC runs etc to complete, so due to PulsarMax being a slow bot this bot came to be :). Version 0.1.5 looks very promising I must say. -- Pulsar

Wow, nanos are a lot of fun, so quick to test too :) This has actually slightly delayed some improvements for PulsarMax at times now. -- Pulsar
