It is common even among the best tanks, but this tank is particularly vulnerable to ram bots. -- Martin
Indeed, Union 1.01 doesn't consider its distance away from the opponent. When an enemy charges, it doesn't react. Another problem 1.01 does not address is its angle relative to walls. It does not worry about walls other than trying not to crash into them! (It still crashes into walls too often though). I would like to have these two problems fixed for my next release. I don't expect to rise in rankings too much, not as much as 1.01, who increased ranking by ~100 points due to the silly errors I list above. Goes to show how important the basics are! -- Arebolledo
My current version of Strength (and StrengthBee?) have problems with rammers as well. I tend to forget about them when making movements... -- Greywhind
