Hey guys, I made a level generator a while back to try to generate really big levels. Got a bit sidetracked into various methods for how to actually do it. Some of the output is here, take a look if you're interested: http://fuseki.net/coillevels/ Has anybody else made a level generator? What algo d...

I still am thinking about this problem.

If you are having problems downloading higher levels, you need to use a more advanced library - for python one that works is "requests" http://docs.python-requests.org/en/latest/ . I think curl would also work.

i've done a few rewrites to this... naive gets to around 50 or 60 rewrite 1 gets to around 250 (python) or 500+ (from what i know of the java / c solvers) rewrite 2 gets to 500 or so (python) or the top of the score list (java / c) and i'm hoping my level 3 will pass everyone, once memory use is fix...

yeah tails levels are easier. I haven't encountered any hard ones up to 1058. The paths seem to be more twisty.

2k x 2k is big but if it was an easy level I think I could solve it.

what language are you guys using for your coil solver?

I know the top guys are C and java... (for now)

I"m using python and know there are perl & go solvers out there too.

ill add poll options (if I can) if people request them.

the hackvm documentation says:
'v' Remove S<S0+1> from the stack and push it on top (ex: 0v swaps S0 and S1)

i think it's meant to say '1v swaps s0 and s1'

because code:
010v

stack is
0 [0]
1 [0,1]
0 [0,1,0]
v [0,1]

0,1 are not getting switched.

can you black out the match result, until it's moused over or selected? i think it'd be more exciting to watch one without knowing the winner beforehand

fixed. it was my bug. the problem was i assumed the opposing faction number would always be one. apparently when you're red, it's not.

I have a class that never generates exceptions, in or out of native. When I test it vs itself or another bot, its behavior changes depending if it's in the first or second slot. In the first one, read, it looks like it occasionally misses thinking. In the second slot, it behaves the way I expect. I ...

arrays of String aren't allowed yet? uncommenting this line causes an exception: public String[] faction2eng={"ME","HIM","NEUTRAL"}; ojvm.util.BadDescriptorE: java/lang/String at ojvm.util.Descriptor.<init>(Descriptor.java:81) at ojvm.util.Descriptor.<init>(Descriptor.j...

no matches have been fought for a while now. what's up?

clearly.
