2011-07-15T10:16:40 if i get it up and running i am thinking we can set it to run on an AWS micro instance 2011-07-15T10:17:01 the free tier lets one setup a single micro instance, i can just host it there for now 2011-07-15T10:17:22 micro instance should be sufficient to run a few games 2011-07-15T10:17:31 we can setup a few of them with different aws accounts for people to play 2011-07-15T10:18:03 can you mail me the link to your repo at hbhasker at yahoo dot com 2011-07-15T10:18:17 i have to step out right now, but will take a stab at it and see if i can get some stuff done 2011-07-15T10:18:24 oh, got pretty lazy, let me put it on github again 2011-07-15T10:20:40 73.29 oh goodie goodie 2011-07-15T10:20:48 http://aichallengebeta.hypertriangle.com/visualizer.php?game=86357&user=13 2011-07-15T10:20:53 mcstar a game that my bot just won 2011-07-15T10:24:26 bhasker: its kind of jittery, when ants are idle, you just move them around randomly? 2011-07-15T10:24:56 well they move to the oldest square around them 2011-07-15T10:25:01 each ant tracks its history 2011-07-15T10:25:08 and just moves to oldest square around it 2011-07-15T10:25:22 seems to work fine for exploring 2011-07-15T10:25:35 hm, i havent thought of that 2011-07-15T10:25:41 i had some complicated logic of figuring out frontlines etc 2011-07-15T10:25:51 i was doing some tests with a kind of potential method 2011-07-15T10:25:52 but that took too much cpu and just didnt work right 2011-07-15T10:25:59 yea i tried potential earlier too 2011-07-15T10:26:07 im gonna use it i think 2011-07-15T10:26:08 but that would get stuck in local maxima's etc 2011-07-15T10:26:18 ants would just sit and do nothing 2011-07-15T10:26:23 well, id use it for spreading 2011-07-15T10:26:33 well your potential calculations better be stable 2011-07-15T10:26:37 otherwise ants do stupid things 2011-07-15T10:26:50 this strategy seems to work fine for me 2011-07-15T10:26:51 for now 2011-07-15T10:27:06 ant expands pretty fast 2011-07-15T10:27:07 its not ONLY potential based, it just would give them a general direction, where are less ants of its own kind 2011-07-15T10:27:08 it could do better 2011-07-15T10:27:25 ah k 2011-07-15T10:27:30 you seem to move multiple ants for the same food though 2011-07-15T10:27:38 that can happen 2011-07-15T10:27:44 since i give orders serially 2011-07-15T10:27:55 sometimes the closest ant gets its orders later 2011-07-15T10:28:06 so you may see multiple ants move at the same time 2011-07-15T10:28:13 also i have a concept of adhoc squad formations 2011-07-15T10:28:22 when an enemy is encountered, ants will move as a squad 2011-07-15T10:28:28 you dont remove the food, that has an ant associated? 2011-07-15T10:28:38 i don't 2011-07-15T10:28:49 since my current code doesn't always find the closest ant for the food 2011-07-15T10:28:55 ok 2011-07-15T10:28:56 it just picks an ant and routes it to closest food to that ant 2011-07-15T10:29:01 so i track path lengths to each food 2011-07-15T10:29:07 from the closest ant 2011-07-15T10:29:17 and if i find another ant with a shorter path to the same food i let it go at it 2011-07-15T10:30:17 i dont see the squads 2011-07-15T10:30:22 or any formation 2011-07-15T10:30:30 well not technically formation let me show you 2011-07-15T10:30:42 they don't persist across turns 2011-07-15T10:32:05 this game is probably not the best 2011-07-15T10:32:07 let me find another 2011-07-15T10:33:28 the problem is my stupid bot is always coming 2nd or 3rd! 2011-07-15T10:33:30 rarely first 2011-07-15T10:33:39 :) 2011-07-15T10:33:51 coming first is a bitch, i dont want it 2011-07-15T10:33:52 you would thinkg that at 73 rating it would win at least 1-2 games every now and then 2011-07-15T10:35:40 if you watch this game http://aichallengebeta.hypertriangle.com/visualizer.php?game=83495&user=13 2011-07-15T10:35:52 youw ill see occassionaly ants will cluster together kill an enemy ant 2011-07-15T10:35:54 and then spread out 2011-07-15T10:35:56 again 2011-07-15T10:36:05 thats usually a squad formed and disbandded 2011-07-15T10:38:00 anyway gotta run now 2011-07-15T10:38:03 l8rs 2011-07-15T10:38:20 bb 2011-07-15T11:07:50 *** fbparis has left #aichallenge 2011-07-15T11:19:19 *** eashoka has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 252 seconds) 2011-07-15T11:29:45 *** rabidus has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 276 seconds) 2011-07-15T11:30:00 *** sigh has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) 2011-07-15T11:45:05 *** rabidus has joined #aichallenge 2011-07-15T11:53:06 *** humanfromearth has left #aichallenge 2011-07-15T12:04:58 *** UvAnts has quit IRC (Quit: Page closed) 2011-07-15T12:05:55 *** sergey__ has joined #aichallenge 2011-07-15T12:06:20 *** sergey__ is now known as SSNikolaevich 2011-07-15T12:09:25 *** SSNikolaevich has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) 2011-07-15T12:20:14 *** amstan has joined #aichallenge 2011-07-15T12:20:14 *** ChanServ sets mode: +o amstan 2011-07-15T12:27:00 *** amstan has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 260 seconds) 2011-07-15T12:41:18 *** Palmik has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) 2011-07-15T12:42:08 *** Palmik has joined #aichallenge 2011-07-15T13:10:46 *** confab has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 252 seconds) 2011-07-15T13:18:43 *** amstan has joined #aichallenge 2011-07-15T13:18:43 *** ChanServ sets mode: +o amstan 2011-07-15T13:21:40 *** bhasker_ has joined #aichallenge 2011-07-15T13:21:48 *** bhasker has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 255 seconds) 2011-07-15T13:24:49 *** confab has joined #aichallenge 2011-07-15T14:04:50 *** sir_macelon has joined #aichallenge 2011-07-15T14:04:59 hi 2011-07-15T14:07:34 why do i see 2 amstan and 3 accoun?
