Can't wait to see how this will turn out in due time...

We got some things working. We made a slack team. https://slitherio-bot.herokuapp.com/

It can now hunt for food - huge first step!

@Evanito Slack team is like gitter but way better - explained because you responded with a confused emoji

ermiyaeskandary avatar Apr 24 '16 12:04 ermiyaeskandary

Thank you @FliiFe for the updated link.

I'd like a function that allows you to turn off the bot at will...

Just so that if it doesn't get food properly, you can go ahead and grab them yourself.

Drflash55 avatar Apr 25 '16 11:04 Drflash55

Done

ermiyaeskandary avatar Apr 25 '16 12:04 ermiyaeskandary

Can you make it avoid head collisions?

@ErmiyaEskandary @FliiFe The Slack invite appears to have run out of codes. Any way I could get an invite to that?

Could an invite be send my way? [email protected]

@herohamp @dracco1993 We are trying to resolve an issue with Slack. When it's fixed, we'll let you know. :)

Sigh... Time flies ...

It can now hunt for food - huge first step!

ermiyaeskandary avatar May 04 '16 20:05 ermiyaeskandary

Just got 1st place with the bot...

It's really growing!

And #12 got solved today...

Man... We're solving things pretty quickly.

I wish that the 'Summer' version of this bot will be able to charge after snakes itself, use an algorithm to find out the best ways to 'coil' snakes (trap them), and find out ways to quickly kill snakes (such as making very tight turns around their head when small and taking advantage of the horrible cornering of bigger snakes). It could also use the algorithm to predict a snake's movements so it's able to trap them in a 'thin hole' (your tail and head are so close together, that they have no other choice but to die).

This seems like good ideas on paper, but actually programming it will take some time. Although I'd love to see some of these suggestions being a reality in the near future.

Cheers to everyone, and keep working hard! :+1:

I made a tutorials of How to install this bot. https://youtu.be/QF9JBMi-fLo?t=38s I hope you like it!

Keep up the good work!! Seppe Tutorials

(Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this)

Thanks. Will add it to the readme soon. @TheFlyingPlatypus can you post the link of your video as well ?

ermiyaeskandary avatar May 07 '16 18:05 ermiyaeskandary

Added . @TheFlyingPlatypus could I have your video link as well ?

ermiyaeskandary avatar May 08 '16 12:05 ermiyaeskandary

Could we rename this to something like General discussion, or something ? Because Anticipation doesn't make any sense anymore

tjbcg avatar May 14 '16 18:05 tjbcg

Doesn't make a difference for me. Your choice

ermiyaeskandary avatar May 14 '16 19:05 ermiyaeskandary

So...

We have issue #103 finally fixed... Took a week or two, but it's finally dealt with (possibly).

I like giving my status updates on how the bot is going... Makes it feel like I'm writing in little journal logs, every time something major happens... Really helps with looking back at how far we came...

Drflash55 avatar May 17 '16 15:05 Drflash55

About 7 hours ago, we reached V1.0.0.

We are really making progress... Keep up the good work, everyone!

Drflash55 avatar May 24 '16 23:05 Drflash55

So, with our current version, we have a hotkey that can quickly switch between approach and avoid modes with the collision detection, an average score counter that shows how well the bot is doing, more helpful visual debugging elements, and we improved the loading time tremendously by removing the starting animation with the logo.

Pretty soon, we might be able to get the bot to attack others with an aggressive mode that can track how players move so it can cut them efficiently.

This just keeps getting better all the time.

we have a hotkey that can quickly switch between approach and avoid modes

@Drflash55 where is that hotkey?

I hope we can loosen up de control flow for the bot as I tried in https://github.com/ErmiyaEskandary/Slither.io-bot/tree/feature/task-execution
