The Brothers Karamazov

[karamazovapy]

These are three bots with different personalities. They have different aggression and defense levels, and utilize different loadouts. Each uses sam's previous s_bot code, with minor additions and modifications. Notes in parentheses indicate when a weapon or module is activated.

Dmitri
Difficulty - .5
Aggression - .8
Defense - .2
Primary Weapon - Bouncers (>30% energy)
Secondary Weapon - Phaser
Primary Module - Shield
Secondary Module - Boost (>80% energy)

Ivan
Difficulty - .5
Aggression - .6
Defense - .4
Primary Weapon - Phaser
Primary Module - Shield
Secondary Module - Cloak (>30% energy, no firing solution)

Alexei
Difficulty - .5
Aggression - .2
Defense - .8
Primary Weapon - Triple
Secondary Weapon - Phaser
Primary Module - Shield
Secondary Module - Repair (<100% health)

The code is hackish and can crash from time to time. I really thought someone else would come along and make different module bots properly, but no one has, so enjoy these.

Argh Ivan!!

Alexi feels a little weak. Seems to always use the triple and never once pull out the phaser. Maybe it should switch to phaser automatically when less than the min-energy-to-fire divider bar?

Otherwise, i like the implementation of experimenting with different main weapons and modules.

Are you talking about alexei, the one who uses triple? He's meant to be a defensive bot, not a hunter. You're welcome to modify the code if you'd like him to act differently, though.

yes sorry, thats what i meant (edited). I suppose that makes more sense then. Just seems to have trouble fighting against another bot, even if its on the defense side.
