Its my first big bot, I hope it can get into the top 25 to 50.
Great, I want to try it. Where can I download it?
How competitive is it?
Its a pretty good bot, it currently ranks around 50 in the General
RoboRumble.
How does it move?
It uses wave surfing a la a modified
BasicSurfer.
How does it Aim?
It uses a surprisingly simple
GuessFactor gun. (but with good aiming)
Via wavesurfing
How does the melee strategy differ from one-on-one strategy?
It doesn't.
How does it select a target to attack/avoid in melee?
Its not a melee bot.. so it doesn't.
What does it save between rounds and matches?
It saves gun and movement data between rounds.
Where did you get the name?
It just sounded cool, I'm ather good at jumbling letters togeather to form odd names.
Can I use your code?
Yes, its in the jar, released under the
RWPCL.
(Please don't just plug and play)
What's next for your robot?
- Improve the Wavesurfing Ability
- Improve the gun some more.
Umm, well lets see, it does pretty good vs
Duelist.
What other robot(s) is it based on?
BasicSurfer but thats only because it uses its movement.

I wanna see how this stacks up vs Seraphim and some of my new prototype stuff. I made Tyrra so long ago. --
