Other Tutorials / Re: Jaydee's AI guide for beginner's.
« on: December 10, 2014, 10:54:35 AM »
My input:
There are two exact same slides ('AIing the robot')
Overlapping issues (text going on top of pictures or pictures on top of text)
Make the screenshots lighter (covered by Craaig, looks like you took a picture with your phone and not screenshot)
Text coming of the slide (covered by Craaig)
Unnecessary capital letters (one example is on Craaig's screenshot, another example is putting a capital of 'Place' after a comma.)
There's a title template on slide 3
You've bullet-pointed numbers that you already gave your own bullet-points for
'For a Rammer robot, this is all a robot needs. Skip to' Was this meant to be added to? Does it mean 'Skip two', as in two slides? Or was it meant to say 'Skip to *page number/name*'
Keep a format for font size. Looks better on the eyes and more professional. If you can't fit all the text on to one slide with your chosen format, just make a part 2 on the next slide.
'Thanks to Trovaneer' Ha ha. Just check your spelling and grammar in places. Another example is that you spelled 'none' without the 'e'.

These are small things (in the most part) but when you list them like this, it doesn't look good. A presentation that doesn't present itself very well just looks untidy and puts the person reading it off and they'll close it down thinking some kid made it with no knowledge of AIing. I don't think that about you but random people from outside of GTM might.

This is just feedback, so don't think I am bashing you, as I am just telling you what you need to improve.

Don't worry about it, Yugitom knows what he's doing. You're all set.
Ha ha, and Badnik knows what he's talking about. Thanks, mate.

Anyway, I'll be sure to AI your bot correctly once I have the time, you can count on that. (And yours, RedAce, I seriously haven't had chance.)

Why is this discussion here? Anyway, just upload your bot on the bot exchange and send the host a pm with the link to it.

toAst, why do you keep posting in quick succession instead of just editing the first post?

Anyone know how to change the name of this forum?
You'd have to ask Trov really nice whilst he's drunk.

That's why people make showcases... to ask people how they can improve on their bot.

There's no bot that is flawless, so everyone should be posting their bots here.

Yes. However, some unexpected turnabouts have happened in my life recently. I'm still working on it, though.

I hate it when Doom Bars are mentioned around my friends because all make the over-used joke that I make the beer (my last name is Sharp.)

I didn't intend to make a dalek, but it just turned out that way, so whatever.
What was it intended to be if that's how it came out?

« on: November 24, 2014, 02:20:29 AM »
Wouldn't it need to stop moving normally first? I think that the action taken when in the smartzone will be cancelled out by the bot driving forward, causing the same problem. Maybe an AI could be made that stops a robot from moving whilst an opponent is in its smartzone, making backwards the only direction it will go.

Haven't AIed anything in a while, but I don't see why you couldn't give it a circular or half-circle smartzone mounted vertically (essentially parallel with the wheels), and then set a button to jam both wheels into reverse whenever a bot is in the smartzone. It seems like it'd be rudimentary and there's probably better specific AIs out there, but it's simple.
That is what 09 and myself did but it still does the thing where it 'regrets' attacking and just pulls back. I asked 09 myself whether there was a good way to get around this issue and he didn't know of one, that's why he said he 'sorta' got it working.
