Hi,
Im very new to robocode and need a bit of help understanding what exactally a specific bot is doing and why its doing it!!
could some kind person please take a look at the following bot and try to explain in plain english what the bot will do, tactics, responses to events etc. sorry im very new!!
..............................................................................................................................................
package sw;
import robocode.*;
import java.awt.Color;
/**
* robo - simple bot, but very effective against sample bots.
*/
public class robo extends AdvancedRobot
{
int turnDirection = 1; //clockwise or not]
int direction = 1; //forward or backward
/**
* run: robo's default behavior
*/
public void run() {
setAdjustRadarForRobotTurn(true);
setAdjustGunForRobotTurn(true);
setBodyColor(Color.black);
setGunColor(Color.orange);
setRadarColor(Color.black);
setBulletColor(Color.red);
setScanColor(Color.green);
while(true) {
setTurnRadarRight(360);
setAhead(150 * direction);
if(direction == 1) {
direction = -1;
} else {
direction = 1;
}
waitFor(new TurnCompleteCondition(this));
}
}
/**
* onScannedRobot: What to do when you see another robot
*/
public void onScannedRobot(ScannedRobotEvent e) {
setTurnRadarRight(getHeading() - getRadarHeading() + e.getBearing());
if ((getHeading() - getGunHeading() + e.getBearing()) < 180) {
turnGunRight(getHeading() - getGunHeading() + e.getBearing());
} else { turnGunRight(getHeading() - getGunHeading() + e.getBearing() - 360);
}
if (getEnergy() < 8) {
fire(1.5);
} else {
fire(3);
}
scan();
}
/**
* onHitByBullet: What to do when you're hit by a bullet
*/
public void onHitByBullet(HitByBulletEvent e) {
//turn
setTurnRight(e.getBearing() + ( 45 * turnDirection));
waitFor(new TurnCompleteCondition(this));
//turn further and drive away
setTurnRight( 45 * turnDirection);
setAhead(150);
waitFor(new TurnCompleteCondition(this));
//switch direction for next time
if (turnDirection == 1) {
turnDirection = -1;
} else {
turnDirection = 1;
}
}
}

thanks in advance for any help!!
for example if you could tell me what this if statement meant:
if ((getHeading() - getGunHeading() + e.getBearing()) < 180) {
turnGunRight(getHeading() - getGunHeading() + e.getBearing());
