(will check the git anyways... but i can always ask) 2011-08-30T05:43:54 i think you should be right otherwise 2011-08-30T05:43:56 like is water only seen once... and only once 2011-08-30T05:43:59 yep 2011-08-30T05:44:03 right 2011-08-30T05:44:13 and do you see dead ants? 2011-08-30T05:44:35 yes, although come to think of it i don't know what the rules are for seeing it 2011-08-30T05:44:48 that is on the edge of vision 2011-08-30T05:44:49 previous turn or something 2011-08-30T05:45:04 also seems a little odd TNH 2011-08-30T05:45:05 TBH 2011-08-30T05:45:17 it's for people to try and track some scoring information 2011-08-30T05:45:43 and track dead ants from opponents i guess, makes that a bit easier 2011-08-30T05:45:50 but you can do that without it.. don;t really see it adding anything 2011-08-30T05:46:13 in fact you still need to track who could attack who for scoring 2011-08-30T05:46:24 hmmm, you might be right... 2011-08-30T05:46:50 delt0r_: when I wrote the live visualizer I realized that it is actually difficult to track died ants without that info 2011-08-30T05:47:25 if it's already there it doesn't really hurt to leave it right? although i'm now curious about what the rules are for dead ant info 2011-08-30T05:47:28 not really. you need to know what can and cannot attack... then you know the result of the combat round 2011-08-30T05:47:42 you need to do this anyway so you can score 2011-08-30T05:47:56 at first I didn't include dead ants and I had no idea why some ants disappeared and others stayed. they approach each other at a speed of 0, 1 or 2 squares 2011-08-30T05:48:43 mm 2011-08-30T05:48:45 perhaps 2011-08-30T05:48:46 so in the replay it wasn't obvious that some ants will be in attack range at the end of the turn 2011-08-30T05:49:06 i imagine dead ant info is based on vision after battle resolution? do dead ants see other dead ants dying? 2011-08-30T05:49:16 no 2011-08-30T05:49:24 its other ants that see it IIRC 2011-08-30T05:49:34 so you don't necessarily get told all of your ants which die? 2011-08-30T05:49:40 but it may still be a event in the game log 2011-08-30T05:49:44 and not told that that ant collided with an enemy? 2011-08-30T05:50:17 mmm may need to look at the source... does an ant see itself 2011-08-30T05:50:34 sigh: did you do the dead ant information code? 2011-08-30T05:51:05 woah, the last time I touched the code was ages ago 2011-08-30T05:51:30 yeah i know, just trying to work out what information we think bots will get 2011-08-30T05:51:45 oh, I can point you to the place 2011-08-30T05:52:30 assuming github loas in my browser :S 2011-08-30T05:52:51 what's happened to the contest, I haven't been paying attention 2011-08-30T05:53:23 not much :P 2011-08-30T05:53:41 i think delt0r_ is working on a bot manager type program? 2011-08-30T05:54:10 there are a few things stalling the contest from launching and i'm not sure anyone is working on them, nor am i really sure of what the issues are :\ 2011-08-30T05:54:22 here is the line dealing with dead ant info: https://github.com/aichallenge/aichallenge/blob/epsilon/ants/ants.py#L400 2011-08-30T05:54:50 players see all their own dead ants, plus any others visible from their ants which are currently alive 2011-08-30T05:55:38 and do alive ants see themselves? 2011-08-30T05:55:42 based on their positions after moving yes? that seems reasonable 2011-08-30T05:56:00 delt0r_: live ants don't have dead ant info, you get information about them at the start of each turn though yes 2011-08-30T05:56:01 delt0r_: yes, of course 2011-08-30T05:56:18 sigh: cheers :) 2011-08-30T05:56:27 right so if I have one ant at 5,5 2011-08-30T05:56:32 then i will get a line 2011-08-30T05:56:37 a 5 5 0 2011-08-30T05:56:43 yep 2011-08-30T05:56:47 sigh: how's google? 2011-08-30T05:56:55 cool:just what to be clear 2011-08-30T05:57:11 it's fun...

2011-08-30T09:25:47 just a matter of working out the syntax most of the time 2011-08-30T09:26:23 (not that I can, but I don't think it's too hard to switch between them with minimal learning) 2011-08-30T09:26:45 antimatroid : I mean helping with epsilon. when working with a large already done code base, it helps if you are familiar with stuff. 2011-08-30T09:28:26 antimatroid : language basics may be similar across languages but practical series development is largely about experience in SDk's libraries etc.. I think. :-) 2011-08-30T09:30:35 antimatroid : but you have a point, without giving a new thing a start, it will never happen :-) still, this white space thingy in python is putting me off sometimes. I have spent too much time in java c++ worlds :-( 2011-08-30T09:31:07 yeah, whitespace with python is one of the things that makes me not like it 2011-08-30T09:31:21 i like having large chunks of code inside braces 2011-08-30T09:34:30 antimatroid : yeah same here. not exactly like it but rather have gotten too much used to it. 2011-08-30T10:12:40 *** eashoka has quit IRC (Quit: Page closed) 2011-08-30T10:15:21 *** sigh has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) 2011-08-30T10:39:20 *** mceier has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) 2011-08-30T10:42:12 *** mceier has joined #aichallenge 2011-08-30T10:43:34 *** ArchMonkey_ has joined #aichallenge 2011-08-30T10:46:48 *** ArchMonkey has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 264 seconds) 2011-08-30T10:46:49 *** ArchMonkey_ is now known as ArchMonkey 2011-08-30T11:02:38 *** AlliedEnvy_ has joined #aichallenge 2011-08-30T11:03:29 *** AlliedEnvy has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 245 seconds) 2011-08-30T11:22:09 *** Allied_Envy has joined #aichallenge 2011-08-30T11:23:54 *** AlliedEnvy_ has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 245 seconds) 2011-08-30T11:31:11 *** boegel has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) 2011-08-30T11:43:11 *** okayzed is now known as okay 2011-08-30T11:44:49 *** AlliedEnvy_ has joined #aichallenge 2011-08-30T11:47:14 *** Allied_Envy has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 245 seconds) 2011-08-30T11:50:34 *** AlliedEnvy_ has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 245 seconds) 2011-08-30T11:54:00 *** mathis has joined #aichallenge 2011-08-30T11:54:31 *** FireFly has joined #aichallenge 2011-08-30T11:56:42 *** Kingpin13 has joined #aichallenge 2011-08-30T11:59:29 *** AlliedEnvy has joined #aichallenge 2011-08-30T12:07:40 *** okay is now known as okayzed 2011-08-30T12:14:52 *** bhasker has quit IRC (Quit: bhasker) 2011-08-30T12:26:40 *** UncleVasya has joined #aichallenge 2011-08-30T13:03:54 *** delt0r_ has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 245 seconds) 2011-08-30T13:05:27 *** okayzed is now known as okay 2011-08-30T13:14:54 *** bhasker has joined #aichallenge 2011-08-30T13:17:07 *** delt0r_ has joined #aichallenge 2011-08-30T13:25:47 *** orivej has quit IRC (Read error: Operation timed out) 2011-08-30T13:56:48 *** bhasker has quit IRC (Quit: bhasker) 2011-08-30T14:03:44 *** mathis has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 252 seconds) 2011-08-30T14:17:33 *** mcstar has quit IRC (Quit: WeeChat 0.3.5) 2011-08-30T14:34:50 *** AlliedEnvy_ has joined #aichallenge 2011-08-30T14:36:49 *** AlliedEnvy has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 245 seconds) 2011-08-30T14:59:21 *** boegel has joined #aichallenge 2011-08-30T14:59:51 *** Hammerok has joined #aichallenge 2011-08-30T15:13:16 *** ArchMonkey_ has joined #aichallenge 2011-08-30T15:16:00 *** ArchMonkey has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 260 seconds) 2011-08-30T15:16:01 *** ArchMonkey_ is now known as ArchMonkey 2011-08-30T15:16:28 *** berak has quit IRC (Quit: ChatZilla 0.9.84 [SeaMonkey 2.0a3/20090223135443]) 2011-08-30T15:28:16 *** Titankiller has joined #aichallenge 2011-08-30T15:44:54 aichallenge: Marco Leise epsilon * r507ca8e / (4 files in 2 dirs): FireFox: fixed errors not being displayed / regression: row & col as URL parameters did no longer work - http://git.io/HTkxiw 2011-08-30T15:46:02 *** Hammerok has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 252 seconds) 2011-08-30T15:53:54 *** Titankiller has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) 2011-08-30T15:53:57 *** Accoun has quit IRC () 2011-08-30T15:56:55 *** justjuzzy has joined #aichallenge 2011-08-30T15:58:34 hello. 2011-08-30T15:58:34 mleise, is there any information about someone's else work on something else but you and visualizer?

more difficult to get a solid base. 2011-08-30T17:38:06 You practically need pathfinding and a way to track things that went out of sight, especially food 2011-08-30T17:38:56 also you have the map wrapping, so every distance calculation means some sort of min/max/abs calculation 2011-08-30T17:38:57 uhu 2011-08-30T17:39:17 sounds good, I like a good challenge :) 2011-08-30T17:39:18 anyway
