Abstract

This paper describes the first attempt to introduce evolutionarily designed players into the international Robocode league, a simulation-based game wherein robotic tanks fight to destruction in a closed arena. Using genetic programming to evolve tank strategies for this highly active forum, we were able to rank third out of twenty-seven players in the category of HaikuBots. Our GPBot was the only entry not written by a human.
