Is there anywhere I can see all the commands I can use here? I know MOVE, but I miss a reference to what other things my boat can do…

#3

You get all the referee once you reach Bronze.
In woods league the statement gives you the authorized commands.
What do you need more ?

How to battle with friend?

Wood 2 League:

Is it normal, that my ship only moves from time to time and not very round? Can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong so far… or maybe I missed out on some information

In the first loop I collect all barrels, then search in a function for the smallest distance and give the coordinates to the print (“Move” x y) statement.

Is my algorithm maybe to slow?
Response time for one turn ≤ 50ms

Thanks for the help! :slight_smile:

can you share a replay of one of your bot’s games so we can help you?

#8

Here we go:

Now in Wood 2 you can’t see it that good, because the opponents destroys my ship to early, but you see, that my ship only moves from time to time - somehow.

Thanks for the answer!

Hello, is it normal the view doesn’t fit the windows when the code is executed not maximized ?

#10

hi

im beginner cdgame

im rank 1 in bronze league

how to promote from bronze to silver?

#11

Hey!
The system is the same for every league, in every bot programing game: You have to be ranked above the boss once all your fights ended.

While developing my own engine, I noticed that the reference Referee incorrectly computes the range for determining a random number of mines or barrels. See the code segment on github. Instead of using random.nextInt(1 + max - min) + min, it uses random.nextInt(max - min) + min. Thus, effectively a max of 9 initial mines and a max number of rum barrel of 25 may be seeded. Not that it really matters for the game itself…

Good spotting! Indeed it does not matter, it just means MAX_MINES mines can never happen during random map generation.

But the fun fact is the if (MAX_MINES > MIN_MINES) test. It shows someone thought about the case MAX_MINES == MIN_MINES and that it would lead to an empty interval and map generation would fail. They added a special case for it, but your solution is better!

I created a code using if statements with python 3 that would check if the arg_4 was 0 and then fire at it but when I ran it, it shot at barrels do you know why?

#15

I am using java and i need help. my boat wont move.

#16

I am not able to write code for this game… can someone help me to start code for this game

#17

I have a pretty stupid question but i cant figure it out.

how do i differentiate between the boats’ x position and the rums or mines x position.

for example if i wanted to make the boat wait when a mine was closer than 1. how would i do that

How do you fire at opponent ships

You use the “FIRE” command. Please read the statement (“Rules” and “Output for one game turn”) for more details.
