I participate in the Summer Challenge 2025 which is fun, well explained. Recently I wanted to improve and see why I lose some matchups and I got surprise to being disqualified for using the MOVE command. Here is a replay where the bug occurs Coding Games and Programming Challenges to Code Better
Some having the same issue? Maybe I missed something, but I can’t see what.

In the replay you gave, your agent IDs are 4, 5 and 6, but you are outputting 1, 2 and 3.
Try to review your IDs and see if it solves your problem.
If yes, then probably the error message can be improved.

I see, I was thinking we always get the red ones. I will fix that later by the end of the day and let you know. Thank you very much for the feedback!
