AI-ing (.py files, coding, nose-orienting R+D, and help)

[System32]

During startup.

No warning at all.

[G.K.]

Post the bindings here

[somestrangeguy]

You might have a false index number in teams.txt

[System32]

didn't even mouse over the teams TXT

[G.K.]

I see. Post the bindings anyway.

[System32]

    list.append( ("Locktite","Poker",{'nose':math.pi\2,'topspeed':12.0,'throttle':110,'turn':80,'turnspeed':4.5,'weapons':(1,)}))
    list.append( ("Snow plow", "Rammer",{'nose':math.pi,'topspeed':20.0,'throttle':140,'turnspeed':6.0,'weapons':(1,)}))
    list.append( ("EMERGANCY 2", "Spinner", {'radius':0.4,'topspeed':20.0,'throttle':110,'weapons':(1,)}))

(Sparky...)

    list.append( ("Locktite","Poker",{'nose':math.pi\2,'topspeed':12.0,'throttle':110,'turn':80,'turnspeed':4.5,'weapons':(1,)}))
    list.append( ("Snow plow", "Rammer",{'nose':math.pi,'topspeed':20.0,'throttle':140,'turnspeed':6.0,'weapons':(1,)}))
    list.append( ("EMERGANCY 2", "Spinner", {'radius':0.4,'topspeed':20.0,'throttle':110,'weapons':(1,)}))

In this coding there's '\' that should be '/'.

Topspeed @ 20?!?! :O

Just put it at 99, even if it can't reach it, it can still run as fast as it could. :P

[JoeBlo]

reminds me of some of the stock AI going slow despite having fast drive

I was AI'ing a bot with LaserGuidedV3 but whenever I test it, the servo spins away from the bot

Here's the bot:

And bindings:

Code: [Select]

    list.append(("Sowobot","LaserGuidedV3",{'servonose':-1,'range':80,'radius':1,'servospeed':60,'topspeed':99,'mayFire':True,'throttle':130,'weapons':(20,21,22,23)}))
I have also tried servonose:1, nothing really changes.

Help would be appreciated.

[Reier]

I'm no expert...but maybe wire it the other way?

[G.K.]

What do you mean? The servo?
Edit: I tried that and it still doesn't work.

[Madiaba]

SOW, cool.
Gk, the servos in stock and DSL actually point in start (default) at 3.14 radians from each other(they all points the opposite directions).

So that may be the issue, on your SOW bot..

Send me your Bot, AI.py and Bindings line, and I'll look it through...

[G.K.]

Thanks Mad. I'll do that.

you may try with 'servonose':-0.5 or 0.5
another problem may be due to the fact that servo motor are very weak : they cannot support heavy weight and are quickly unable to move. Use the 'biggest' servo available.

[G.K.]

I'll try that, thanks Phil. It is using the largest Servo I can use.

[G.K.]

DP. Unfortunately with both numbers it still rotates the piston away from the opposing bot.

[Squirrel_Monkey]

Could you rotate the component attached 180degrees?

[G.K.]

I don't see how that would help.

[philetbabe]

you've got another parameter called delta; it is used to say that an angle is corerct even if does not really aim the good direction.
the higher, the more tolerance

here are sample use of delta :

Code: [Select]

   Line 973:     list.append( ("head on", "LaserGuidedV3",{ 'servonose':1, 'range':80, 'radius':2.5, 'servorange':2.8,'delta':0.25, 'servospeed':50, 'topspeed':99, 'mayFire':True, 'throttle':130,'weapons':(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9)}))
   Line 974:     list.append( ("BJM servo", "LaserGuidedV3",{ 'nose':math.pi,'range':80, 'radius':3, 'servorange':2,'servonose':-1,'delta':0.15, 'servospeed':60, 'topspeed':99, 'mayFire':False, 'throttle':130,'weapons':(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9)}))
