Party Guests:
(Does X2 use DC for movement? He doesn't say that he does, so I'm guessing no...)
I think it uses Toad's movement, so no, not DC. Lukious was top 10 when I first released it, but the party hadn't started yet I guess... =) -- Voidious
*sigh* -- Simonton
No need for sighs, you can make it! You already have a worthy gun, just need to iron the bugs out of your surfing and you're done! --David Alves
But it's so much NOT fun to iron out the bugs :(. -- Simonton
*even bigger sigh* ... I have DC bot with a buggy gun and a good movement. Hmm... I wonder what would happen if we put Simonton's gun on my movement? -- AaronR
Maybe stop getting so complicated with the pathfinding stuff and just get something that works! You can add pathfinding after you completely thomp everyone. :) --Chase-san
I feel so oldschool....Maybe I'll have to try to get to the top 10 with a pattern matcher now =) -- Skilgannon
My latest experiment (generating random buffers) probably gives pretty similar results to DC...I'll give DC a try in my surfing stats, and see if I can get the same results. And maybe it's time I tuned that DC gun I got working about a month ago ;-) -- Skilgannon
I was sort of tongue-in-cheek when I first mentioned Lukious already having been top-10 once, but now that Chalk is #11... Do people get kicked out of this party, or no? =) If no, I came across a screenshot the other day that proves Lukious was already partying once. :-P -- Voidious
No kicking out, and sure, add Lukious in the right place. =) --David Alves
Yay! ([proof]) But Lukious is still self-conscious about being the weakest link at the party right now... -- Voidious
Congrats, Kev! Whether it's Hydra or WaveSerpent, you will most likely soon be the youngest to hit 2100, too. *knock on wood* =) -- Voidious
I turned 18 less than a month before getting in....so Kev better hurry =) -- Skilgannon
I still have over six months until I turn 18 =). But you've definitely been the fastest to hit 2100 (or 2000 for that matter). -- Kev
Hey, I've question. Why Skilgannon enter party with Stormrider? I saw that DrussGT use DC in both Movement and Gun! (It use DC to find imaginary bullet power in its imaginary wave surfing) --Nat
Well, DrussGT uses VCS primarily for the movement. True, it does use DC to find the imaginary bullet power, but that, I believe, actually has very little effect on score. I could probably change that to always guess '2' and for 95% of bots it would be just as good. This club is for bots that ONLY use DC, ie. no VCS at all in either gun or movement. I could change a few booleans in DrussGT to make it like this, but the score would go down dramatically. -- Skilgannon
OK, I understand now. Could you explain how to use DC instead of VCS? I currently not found any description of it on this wiki. --Nat
Added myself since getting in this party was keeping me from working on my new bot, now I finally can move on :-p. --Zyx
Some question, Skilgannon said that "This club is for bots that ONLY use DC, ie. no VCS at all in either gun or movement." If I create a hybrid bot (use both as stats manager, weight equally), wil my bot qualify for this party? --Nat
No, this is a club for bots that use DC only for gun and movement. -- Skilgannon
