Robot/Visual Client Connect Combination

Timo Hallek — Thu, 06 Jan 2005 11:04:54 -0000

There is a really big bug in the server code. If you
connect a robot to the server, disconnect it a little
bit later, wait for about 4-5 seconds and try to
connect a visual client the server will crash, we think
this depends on some problems with the delete_flag.

I will hurry to fix the bug.

Suicide Robots

It is possible that Robots see them self as enemy on
the map and if they aren't programmed to ignore
themselves they are able to kill themselves. I will
find out why and fix the bug.

Visual Client DB Zombies

Timo Hallek — Tue, 04 Jan 2005 17:44:35 -0000

Sometimes the server does not delete all visual clients
from the codewars_online table in sql database when
they disconnect. That's not really a problem but
falsifies the web based statistic output.

VCCSP 2.0 (No Established)

Timo Hallek — Tue, 21 Dec 2004 21:04:56 -0000

The server does not send the established command after
a successful connection. All other commands are send
and the the visual client support is functionable. The
bug is fixed in 0.3.0 RC4 for more information conact
the maintainer.

(Bug was found by Siron)

As I played with one bot, the bot walked out of the map
to (80|-9). Suddenly I got an exception:

Possible to go off map

Anonymous — Sun, 19 Oct 2003 14:04:01 -0000

It's possible to go off map.
As I tested my Bot, it walks to position (-1|Y).
How it has been gone is unknown, because the bots
walks with a random algorithm.

NCSP support not correct

Timo Hallek — Tue, 10 Jun 2003 21:59:20 -0000

Please do not download the codewars0.1.8.tar.gz the
support of the current communication protocol is not
correct. Patch will be available in a few days.

Clear Screen under Windows and BSD

Timo Hallek — Mon, 02 Jun 2003 16:27:18 -0000

In all 0.1.7 versions except 0.1.7-3 which was created
to fix the bugs of the older versions, is no function
implemented to clear the screen of the shell/console.

Please download 0.1.7 Patch 3 to fix this problem.

No logfile in 0.1.7-1

Anonymous — Fri, 30 May 2003 08:51:29 -0000

hi...

In the first version of 0.1.7-1 and also in the first patch for
this version the server does not log the kills of the bots!
The kill.log is created but not used.

No statistic mode in 0.1.7-1

Timo Hallek — Thu, 29 May 2003 12:17:47 -0000

I made a mistake in the patched version of 0.1.7! I set
a sharp where no sharp should be. So, please view the
Patch-Tracker and download the 'codewars.pl' and
replace the old one.
