So I am attempting to get started with poker chip race but I am having trouble beating the first boss, so if all could please share how you got past the wood leagues by implementing physical properties: it would be a big help to me(and the other 1000 people stuck in wood2). If you think that this would be too much of a giveaway, please say so and I shall remove this thread.
Thanks, keep coding!!
Have you tried to Google this? I came up with very interesting information from the site itself: https://www.codingame.com/multiplayer/bot-programming/poker-chip-race
If you are too lazy to read all that here is the link from top players pm: https://www.codingame.com/blog/pokerchip-race-top-codingamers-code
Or a very detailed strategy from manwe: https://github.com/Manwe56/competitive-programming/blob/master/docs/pokerChipRaceManwe.pdf
Implementation of this kind of algorithm should likely get you out of bronze givent there are advices from top players of the game.
Will try that, but the problem that I find with the top player post motems is that it mostly focusses on their winning strategy, and this often involves complex algorithms like monte carlo, genetics etc.
I want to try starting small, like very basic logics that will just get me to Bronze. I will not be able to implement tougher algorithms without sufficient study.
