eulerscheZahl: Happy Caturday
JBM: how is ur nyan
eulerscheZahl: i understand 50% of the words
JBM: need more coffee
Sat0u: what is nyan?
jacek: nyan nyan
Sina_Abbasi: nyan cat
WINWINWIN: Is it caturday now?
eulerscheZahl: yes
WINWINWIN: What exactly is caturday?
eulerscheZahl: the day between Friday and Punday
WINWINWIN: :D
dbf: :smiley:
AndroidTS: hi
Dodo12131: hey there
emigr2k1: jang jang
gmanohar21: please be my friend
gmanohar21: hello anyone
rmuskovets: hi
rmuskovets: does anyone know how to get base location in platinum rift 2?
eulerscheZahl: at the beginning of the game there's only 1 zone with you as a owner. same for the opponent base
rmuskovets: thanks

TheZombieLoremIpsum_cd2: hi
rmuskovets: eulerscheZahl what's that codingame pastebin thingy?
eulerscheZahl: write more than 5 lines and it gets a pastebin
rmuskovets: wow
rmuskovets: i didn't know about it, thx
Nerchio: imagine if you could hide clash of code invitations inside a pastebin
rmuskovets: hmm...
Astrobytes: Morning
AggYz: morninh
WINWINWIN: Everyone still focussed on PR2?
Nerchio: euler LUL
Nerchio: https://www.codingame.com/replay/471309186
eulerscheZahl: 1. I should not win this game
2. I should win it earlier
Nerchio: 1. yes 2.yes
Nerchio: but you going by my HQ was funny
eulerscheZahl: i prioritize exploration
Nerchio: commit depends a lot on if you get terrible imbalanced maps at the start
Nerchio: where you have guaranteed draws :p
eulerscheZahl: we need leagues
wlesavo: it would be nice to have legend open with re curse as a gold boss :slight_smile:
Astrobytes: wlesavo, I see we disagree on the definition of 'nice' :D
wlesavo: :smiley:
Illedan: I like the idea
struct: Wont it be too strong?
struct: I never played pr2 so i have no idea
eulerscheZahl: he's first for a reason
jrke: which pathfinder can i use in PR2
eulerscheZahl: a blue one
Illedan: FloydWarshall
eulerscheZahl: on that mapsize? you got to be kidding
Illedan: Works :)
Illedan: Uses at most 650 ms
Illedan: :D
eulerscheZahl: ok, not what i expected :D
eulerscheZahl: won't work with python
Astrobytes: What's the largest known map?
Astrobytes: *seed
eulerscheZahl: the spiral i think
eulerscheZahl: https://www.codingame.com/replay/471309186
Illedan: https://www.codingame.com/replay/471325882
Illedan: Thought it was this?
Illedan: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/cf176833-9c64-4152-a166-47210530cb8e
Illedan: :D
Illedan: LOL
Illedan: If I set platinum on a level too high, it goes into internal error
Illedan: xD
eulerscheZahl: well done :D
Astrobytes: lol
Illedan: :D
Illedan: I can even give each player 999 units to start with
Illedan: Makes me timeout :(
Astrobytes: 218.413 ms on spiral, 304.433 ms on second. Not-very-well optimised BFS. Figured it'd be better than F-W
eulerscheZahl: sure it is
JeremieBelpois: k
Nerchio: leaderboard stuck again? :P
Astrobytes: Aye
Astrobytes: For a while now
Nerchio: ;(
BigSumo: How can I remove shortest challenges from my options?
PatrickMcGinnisII: hey I'm on the leaderboard with my old BS code
sayantan_2005516: i need help
sayantan_2005516: anyone up?
gmanohar21: i need friends
sayantan_2005516: i am unable to understand problem statement
sayantan_2005516: can anyone help me with any tutorial or links?
Nerchio: im not sure if its fault that PR2 is an old game but java times out sometimes at the start of the match and it doesnt happen in IDE
Alshock: sayantan_2005516we can't know what you don't understand from that statement, what are you trying to solve in the first place? What's confusing?
sayantan_2005516: i am confused in the statements. in hackerrank , i am getting all the problem statemets..but in this site, i am confused
sayantan_2005516: do you have any tutorial links?
eulerscheZahl: on CodinGame you get a list of problems here: https://www.codingame.com/training
AntiSquid: sayantan_2005516 which problem, what part of the statement is confusing, etc etc, can only reiterate same questions as before as you weren't clear where you are stuck
sayantan_2005516: https://www.codingame.com/ide/puzzle/temperatures
sayantan_2005516: this problem
AntiSquid: and that is somehow more difficult than hackerrank?
AntiSquid: min( abs(a), abs(b) )
sayantan_2005516: not difficult.. its not understandable
AntiSquid: min( abs(a), abs(b) )
sayantan_2005516: https://www.codingame.com/training/medium/shadows-of-the-knight-episode-1
sayantan_2005516: this one
AntiSquid: bubble sort
sayantan_2005516: n^2 time complexity
eulerscheZahl: "not understandable"
how did 160k users solve it then?
wlesavo: one of my teachers used to say you dont have to understand the subject to be able to teach it
Astrobytes: If he's used to hackerrank, unless it's an exceptionally dry problem statement with zero 'story' it might confuse him I guess
VincentPinet: bad teacher no donuts
AntiSquid: found the solution sayantan_2005516 https://www.education.com/magazine/article/fifth-grade-reading-comprehension/
WINWINWIN: :D
AntiSquid: i don't see how hackerrank was easier to understand Astrobytes :/
Astrobytes: What I meant AntiSquid is he expects the problems in a particular format, most likely.
Input, expected output, constraints.
Astrobytes: No 'fluff'. It confuses certain kinds of people
Xcalibre: hi AntiSquid
what is the significance of the red dot in ur profile picture?
AntiSquid: that's where the milky way is
WINWINWIN: I dont see a red dot :/
Xcalibre: oh i see
VincentPinet: stories are confusing
AntiSquid: http://www.somewhereinlaniakea.com/about/laniakea/
Illedan: It's working :tada:
Astrobytes: What? Your improvements?
wlesavo: or SR NN
Illedan: I wish wlesavo :(
Illedan: Will work on that later today
Illedan: My rewrite into local structure instead of the hacky code I had in the IDE. Doing PR2
Illedan: And I added some improvement
Illedan: some tracking and better Linq
Astrobytes: Nice. Jumped a few ranks I see
Illedan: 15 until glory
Astrobytes: :D
Illedan: (for me to be in range of dropping euler)
Astrobytes: hahaha
Illedan: :smiling_imp:
Astrobytes: Nice goal :P
Illedan: Marchete was too far away
Astrobytes: lol
Illedan: I would rather want to focus on my NN
eulerscheZahl: uncool
inoryy: you're doing NN for PR2, Illedan?
eulerscheZahl: for search race
Illedan: ^
Astrobytes: He's doing an EDA for PR2
Illedan: eda?
Astrobytes: Euler Dropping Algorithm
Illedan: :P
eulerscheZahl: meanwhile i dropped the game itself
Astrobytes: You made a GDD
eulerscheZahl: game dropping drop?
Astrobytes: *decision
dyc3: Hey fellas, could I get another set of eyes on this bug I'm having?
Astrobytes: Just post your question and/or code, someone will help out if they can dyc3
dyc3: Sometimes, my code doesn't read all the lines in code a-la mode. This is my code: https://hastebin.com/aragulohuj.sql
Astrobytes: this might be another flush issue
Astrobytes: Try adding flush=True to your print statements
Astrobytes: (I didn't check your code but it's a common issue)
Astrobytes: *properly
eulerscheZahl: can phase be something else than 0 and 1?
dyc3: but this happens when reading the input. When this bug occurs, it reads everything but the last line of input
eulerscheZahl: flush the error stream
eulerscheZahl: trust Astrobytes
dyc3: ill try it
eulerscheZahl: def log(x):
print(x, file=sys.stderr, flush=True)
dyc3: ...that fixed it
Astrobytes: :)
dyc3: thanks
Astrobytes: np
dyc3: thats so frustrating though, I spent a good 4-5 hours debugging this
wlesavo: i wonder how many time was consumed by this flush issue across all the users
Astrobytes: Don't be put off asking for help sooner, sensible questions get answered ;)
wlesavo: around 1-2 hours for me as well
Astrobytes: CG were supposed to be doing something about the buffering/flushing no?
dyc3: I asked yesterday but nobody responded. It was kinda late tho
Astrobytes: Yeah, best to pick a time when a lot of Europeans are on lol
Astrobytes: Also, sometimes stuff just gets lost in chat
wlesavo: are you on lol
Astrobytes: I'm in standby mode, not on, not off :P
wlesavo: i mean on lol sounds like on drugs
Astrobytes: Ah, nah you'd say "on it" :)
wlesavo: true
wlesavo: so are you?
Astrobytes: Only prescription ones :D
Astrobytes: I'm not sure 'recreational' pharmaceuticals and coding go hand-in-hand lol
eulerscheZahl: robo suggested to modify the python template or the way how python is executed. Thibaud added it to the bugtracker
eulerscheZahl: that's the last thing I heard
Astrobytes: Hm. Another "wait and see if it happens"
eulerscheZahl: we have .net core with release mode now
eulerscheZahl: didn't think it would happen, yet it's there
Astrobytes: True.
hem123: question i generally tend to use dataframes to store data retreived by for loops
hem123: is there any other trick that might be far more efficient
MostComplicatedUsername: I have no idea what that means
MostComplicatedUsername: Actually, i probably do, I just don't know it by those words
eulerscheZahl: same
Astrobytes: google sez pandas
MostComplicatedUsername: sez pandas?
MostComplicatedUsername: hmmmm suspicious
Astrobytes: (says)
MostComplicatedUsername: I got something about a python library
Astrobytes: I googled it. Google said pandas.
MostComplicatedUsername: oh
eulerscheZahl: i get a dance tshirt
MostComplicatedUsername: lol
Astrobytes: For dataframes?
eulerscheZahl: https://www.redbubble.com/i/t-shirt/Who-sez-Pandas-can-t-dance-ballet-by-BeeBeeQueen/12550442.NL9AC
Astrobytes: sez = "non-standard spelling of ‘says’, used in representing uneducated speech."
jrke: oh man made -350 in -17 in PR2 after 4 hours of coding
Astrobytes: But you were 400-and-something before the contest jrke
jrke: now 449
jrke: now its +
jrke: last update was of 501
jrke: dunno how i went back
jrke: i forgot everything about PR2 and rewrited everything with a working sim
Astrobytes: thibpat's leaderboard updates every 30 minutes
Astrobytes: CG leaderboard is current
jrke: ya
jrke: my current rank 450 and thibpat leaderboard 501
jrke: going to do some homework of my school bye
Astrobytes: bye jrke
jrke: bye Astrobytes
AntiSquid: thibpat's leaderboard is faster than CG's ?
Astrobytes: lol
MostComplicatedUsername: Well probably didnt update yet
AntiSquid: https://twitter.com/chokudai/status/1269260649504272384
Astrobytes: He got a new toilet?!
Astrobytes: Or...?
AntiSquid: i guess it's just a pic of his cat staring at him when he wants to shit ?
AntiSquid: check carpet, there's a cat
Astrobytes: Ah lol, didn't expand the image.
Cute cat!
jrke: can i create my alt id also
jrke: on CG
AntiSquid: why are there protests all around the world, what are people demanding ? :/
AntiSquid: it happened in US, it's an americuhn issue
jrke: vaccine for corona maybe ;)
Astrobytes: well jrke, there's a jrke1 already from India
jrke: thats not me
jrke: i also saw him also messaged him but no reply
Astrobytes: Well, it's technically not allowed, but a lot of people do have alts. Don't use them in competitions though.
jrke: K
eulerscheZahl: i deleted my alts
Astrobytes: I've only got one, not used it for a while
Astrobytes: Only used it for testing before switching algos on CSB and Oware
eulerscheZahl: for me it was kutulu in the contest preparation
eulerscheZahl: then csj joined the testing team, is reaction was something like "so many toads"
Astrobytes: lol
Astrobytes: where is csj anyway, didn't see him around for a bit
jrke: eulerscheZalh are you taking part in this contest?
eulerscheZahl: not a contest
jrke: oh yeah
eulerscheZahl: and no
jrke: K
Astrobytes: I see how PR2 is an improvement on PR1, PR1 doesn't look particularly enjoyable.
AntiSquid: wasn't csj streaming clash of code with viewers recently? think it was mention on discord Astrobytes
eulerscheZahl: PR1 depends too much on the first turn
eulerscheZahl: especially with more than 2 players it's a mess
eulerscheZahl: and in fullscreen you don't even know which bot is which player
eulerscheZahl: no names in the replay
Astrobytes: Didn't notice AntiSquid
eulerscheZahl: me neither, haven't saw him in a while
Astrobytes: And yeah, even just a cursory look at the game made me a bit apprehensive about doing it
eulerscheZahl: but i muted the streaming channel on discord
Astrobytes: lol
eulerscheZahl: https://prnt.sc/sv1khk
my filtering
jrke: bye gn everyone
Astrobytes: gn jrke, cya tomorrow
jrke: ya
jrke: bye astrobytes
Astrobytes: lol eulerscheZahl, no memes eh
AntiSquid: gn jrke
eulerscheZahl: luckily that meme channel is persistent now. not this random friday anymore that i had to mute each week
eulerscheZahl: and pings still work, even when the channel is muted
AntiSquid: i didn't get the logic behind that, why delete it after friday ...
Astrobytes: Yeah, that was pretty odd
Astrobytes: Perhaps it was light relief for all those devs who push to procution on Fridays
Astrobytes: *production even
b0bR0zz: Hi
AntiSquid: Non
b0bR0zz: what a cool site
b0bR0zz: love it
AntiSquid: then welcome to CG, enjoy your stay and get an avatar! :D
Astrobytes: Randomly talking French AntiSquid?
AntiSquid: i occasionally say no to new people saying hi
AntiSquid: really old habbit
AntiSquid: habit *
Astrobytes: In a variety of languages or just French?
Astrobytes: I might have said 'nee' in this case
b0bR0zz: got an avatar
AntiSquid: reminds me of rockymullet's avatar :p
Astrobytes: Yeah his is a Bob Ross photoshop job lol
MostComplicatedUsername: i give up
MostComplicatedUsername: pr 2 is impossible
Astrobytes: Why? What are you struggling with?
MostComplicatedUsername: I know what I want to do in concept, but I have no idea how to actually create it
Astrobytes: What concept do you want to implement?
MostComplicatedUsername: First I want to store all the visible cells in a list
MostComplicatedUsername: Then I find the ones with the most platinum
MostComplicatedUsername: Then I check if there are pods adjacent, if not, then I move pods closer
MostComplicatedUsername: And I do the same for the enemy base
WINWINWIN: python is probably the best language to implement that for
MostComplicatedUsername: Im using python
WINWINWIN: sorted(zones, key = lambda x : x.platinum)
Astrobytes: As long as your graph structure is OK none of that should be an issue
pb4: eulerscheZahl : why u no like BR2k48 :'(
pb4: (only multi filtered in your screenshot :no_mouth:)
Astrobytes: You can filter cells that are yours, then filter their neighbours by platinum or whatever. The visible cells are the cells surrounding a cell with a unit on, as well as that unit's cell @ MostComplicatedUsername
Astrobytes: Shocking isn't it pb4 :)
MostComplicatedUsername: Ik that astro... I'm struggling with actually moving the units around
MostComplicatedUsername: Not having coords is annoying
Astrobytes: In what way? It's pretty straightforward no? Move x units from a to b
MostComplicatedUsername: Yeah but I have to check if they're linked
MostComplicatedUsername: Annoying
Astrobytes: What are you using for your graph?
MostComplicatedUsername: Graph? I'm just storing info in lists
MostComplicatedUsername: Like, for the linked zones
Astrobytes: "The game is played on a continent that is shaped using hexagonal zones. Links between zones are provided at the start of a game as a graph."
MostComplicatedUsername: Yeah
MostComplicatedUsername: Im just storing all the zone 1s in a list
MostComplicatedUsername: And zone 2s in another
MostComplicatedUsername: Then I use a loop to match them when I want to use it
Astrobytes: Have you heard of an adjacency list?
MostComplicatedUsername: ?
eulerscheZahl: yes
Astrobytes: Right, you know how you store cell neighbours for each cell in a grid?
MostComplicatedUsername: No
MostComplicatedUsername: Probably
Astrobytes: Wow, ok
MostComplicatedUsername: I have to create a list for each cell?
MostComplicatedUsername: Then store cell ids of neighboring cells in it?
eulerscheZahl: class Cell {
List<Cell> neighbors;
// ...
}
eulerscheZahl: do you have something like that?
Astrobytes: ^
MostComplicatedUsername: no
Astrobytes: Do it
MostComplicatedUsername: I just look at the lists of linked zones to check if they're neighbors
Astrobytes: Then when you read the links in the first turn, cell[link1].neighbours.append(link2)
cell[link2].neighbours.append(link1)
Astrobytes: or whatever it is
eulerscheZahl: so you have:
class Link { Cell A, Cell B }
List<Link> connetions;
?
MostComplicatedUsername: idk what that does
MostComplicatedUsername: I just have 2 lists
MostComplicatedUsername: 1 for cell #1
MostComplicatedUsername: And another for cell #2
WINWINWIN: a = {}
eulerscheZahl: sounds slow
MostComplicatedUsername: And I just match the indices
MostComplicatedUsername: or indexes?
MostComplicatedUsername: idk
WINWINWIN: indices
eulerscheZahl: there are 2 common ways: the list from above and the matrix
WINWINWIN: use a dictionary, lot easier
eulerscheZahl: boolean[][] connected
MostComplicatedUsername: Yeah but I'm bad with dictionaries winwinwin
MostComplicatedUsername: Like, I can't use them
Astrobytes: I hardly every use a matrix for most things tbh, then again I don't do much CP
eulerscheZahl: i usually go for the list as wel
eulerscheZahl: l
Astrobytes: MCU, all you need to do is have a Cell/Zone class, that has a list with the cells/zones directly adjacent to it
MostComplicatedUsername: I have a solution, thanks astro
Astrobytes: :)
LunaticGamer: do cto of coding game usually visit people's linked profiles?
AntiSquid: are you asking if you can get a job through CG ?
MostComplicatedUsername: There is a big yellow button labeled "JOBS"
MostComplicatedUsername: Wonder what it's for
MostComplicatedUsername: what is this map lol https://www.codingame.com/share-replay/471394519
Scarfield: Its for a guy names Steve
Scarfield: named*

OpenAl: wood 1 Coders Strike Back, how do I use boost in python?
Tiramon: same as in any other language OpenAl
You can use 1 acceleration boost in the race, you only need to replace the thrust value by the BOOST keyword.
Tiramon: so instead of
Tiramon: 9885 3657 200
Tiramon: you output 9885 3657 BOOST
Uljahn: print(x_target, y_target, "BOOST")
something like this i guess
jimmyjansen93: Im not sure if it is different in python, but in JS it should be "BOOST"
jimmyjansen93: Speaking of which, anyone got ideas for bumping implementation? I am not sure how I can use bumping to my advantage
Uljahn: there are some links on the landing page of CSB
jimmyjansen93: Ahh missed those, thanks
Uljahn: magus's article could be useful when you're in gold/legend
jimmyjansen93: I will be promoted to silver in couple minutes
jimmyjansen93: but interesting reads anyway
OpenAl: @Tiramon, how do I output BOOST only once in the loop and how do I choose an optimal time?
jimmyjansen93: @openAI you can make a boolean outside of the loop and set it to true once you have boosted
When the best moment to boost is... that would be up to you to decide. I simply "BOOST" when I have a certain distance from the checkpoint where I feel I optimally use the boost
jimmyjansen93: And ya I know I am no Tiramon :D still useful info I would say :p
OpenAl: thanks Jimmy!
hjhjhjhjhjhjhjhj: thanks Jimmy!
OpenAl: how do I implement said boolean? I can't just say:
if i_have_boosted:
dont_boost_anymore
OpenAl: I know figuring it out is the whole game, but a man can only bash his head against a brick wall for so long!
HansonSin: i just create a boolean variable before the while loop
OpenAl: do I have to define "has_boosted" as a function that can return true? is that what you mean?
HansonSin: i define a = True before while loop and in the while loop: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/a7be4e7c-68ec-404e-b4f0-012fb9b4a15b
OpenAl: oooohhhhhhhh! thanks so much HansonSin!
HansonSin: :smile::smile::smile:
jimmyjansen93: @OpenAI indeed set the boolean outside of the loop.
I did `let hasBoosted = false` all the way at the top and then checked `if (!hasBoosted && <condition to boost>)`
jimmyjansen93: keep in mind that I write JS and not python, but same principle applies
jimmyjansen93: I think I should go sleep, this will otherwise consume my night... things get a lot more complex at silver >_<
HansonSin: ?
OpenAl: lets goooooo! Thanks Jimmy Jansen! Your contributions to computer education will have massive impact!
HansonSin: isn't it morning right now?
OpenAl: you are the man Jimmy!
jimmyjansen93: its 1:11am here
jimmyjansen93: and you are most welcome @OpenAI
DragonJ: ugh I hit the boost case to much what should I do?
OpenAl: 7:17 here in NYC, passionate protesters outside my window!
jimmyjansen93: Use what I described above, a global variable that you check before executing the boost
DragonJ: when thrust is 300 but you are out of boosts...
HansonSin: 7:17am here in Malaysia, didnt sleep for the whole night:tired_face:
OpenAl: Hanson! You need sleep! You don't want to be richest man in the graveyard!
DragonJ: I need to print a thrust of "tableflip"
HansonSin: i'll sleep after i've promote to sliver league
DragonJ: or a I LOST SO FLIP THE TABLE button
OpenAl: why do i get
"at Answer.py. not in a function on line 23"
for the line "print(str(next_checkpoint_x) + " " + str(next_checkpoint_y) + " BOOST"):"
DragonJ: probably some commented code or () hidding in your code
DragonJ: but also could be a scope issue
HansonSin: Oh yeah im sliver league now:laughing:
OpenAl: WOOOOO!!!!!!
jimmyjansen93: ayy goodnight gents, will be back tomorrow to go for gold
HansonSin: i finally can sleep nowww:sleepy:
HansonSin: bye everyone
OpenAl: wooo! see you then Jimmy and Hanson!
OpenAl: thanks for all the help!
DemoNemo5: i dont get the prompt haha
DragonJ: how can I get a thrust of greater than 100 when out of boosts?
DragonJ: because my code keeps running max speed and it isn't beating the boss who is going 97!
DragonJ: 99>97 right????
Snef: path > spd
DragonJ: would shielding increase my speed or what can I do to boost with no boosts
Snef: shield disable your thrust for 4 turn
Snef: and you can only use your boost one time
Snef: after that you have nothing left than just using your thrust
Snef: https://www.codingame.com/replay/471424500
Snef: look how you miss checkpoint at the end
Snef: you should fix thoses things
DragonJ: If I cant fix it with thrust how should I fix it
Snef: you can fix it with thrust
sidinfinity: what is X0, Y0
Snef: you just didn't make it
DragonJ: I have 4 factors that determine my thrust and the main problem is I cant thrust at what my code says to.
DragonJ: 104,105,106 without using boost
Snef: even with boost you can't thrust 104 405
Snef: 104 / 105 etc
Snef: it's not a problem
Snef: it's the rules
Snef: the problem in the replay i linked is that you miss checkpoint
Snef: you won't fix that with more speed but with smarter thrust management
DragonJ: so more angle control? I already have set that on full going any more would cause worse overshoting
OpenAl: i beat the comupter but its not promoting me. thoughts or ideas?
Snef: it would do with angle control
Snef: OpenAl you have to be ranked above the boss at the end of the submit
Snef: DragonJ but a smart angle control, maybe not just if angle < X
OpenAl: okokok got it thx!
DragonJ: Snef currently I have an equation I used to get into silver which I dont want to change much.
Snef: DragonJ then stick to silver :D
Snef: if you want to improve you have to consider updating what you've done and udnerstanding you haven't done it perfectly
Snef: missing a checkpoint = you have things to fix
DragonJ: would ignoring angle entirely possibly help with my thrust problem?
Snef: you really are asking if ignoring data would improve ????
DragonJ: yes
Snef: how can ignoring things would make things better
DragonJ: semi,ignoring
OpenAl: only one way to find out!
Snef: try outputing thrust = 100
Snef: you will see it's shit
Snef: the more you use data the more you can do advanced stuff
DragonJ: currently I am using 3 distance equations and using them for thrust but angle is being overfocussed on
Snef: i could sum it as :
currently you are missing cp
Snef: your code is like
if angle > 90 thrust = 0
else thrust between 85 and 100 depending on the angle and distance
DragonJ: yes I am gonna try ignoring angle and see how it performs
Snef: spoilet it'll be worse
Snef: spoler*
Snef: spoiler**
Snef: just stop trying random things
Snef: start thinking
Snef: if angle is 45 and dist = 3000 and thrust would you output ?
Snef: -and +what
DragonJ: currently I have dist=3000 dist=100 dist=1500 which should I use?
DragonJ: or should I use all
Snef: i asked you a question dont ask me back
Snef: you have to understand why you should output thrust = 0 or 50 or 100 or whatever
Snef: you can't just try random things and hope you do well
Snef: i mean you can, but it wont' be great
DragonJ: lol I fixed it now I beat the boss
Snef: and you won't learn anything
Snef: go submit then
DragonJ: I wasnt factoring the velocity in well enough
Snef: it seems you want answer to your problem but you don't want to learn why you are performing bad
Snef: that's sad
DragonJ: now my code is optimal but it I still need to handle those edge cases ugh
Snef: you code isn't optimal
