setAhead

public void setAhead(double distance)
Sets the robot to move ahead (forward) by distance measured in pixels when the next execution takes place.

This call returns immediately, and will not execute until you call execute() or take an action that executes.

Note that both positive and negative values can be given as input, where positive values means that the robot is set to move ahead, and negative values means that the robot is set to move back. If 0 is given as input, the robot will stop its movement, but will have to decelerate till it stands still, and will thus not be able to stop its movement immediately, but eventually.

Example:

   // Set the robot to move 50 pixels ahead
   setAhead(50);

   // Set the robot to move 100 pixels back
   // (overrides the previous order)
   setAhead(-100);

   ...
   // Executes the last setAhead()
   execute();
 

Parameters:
distance - the distance to move measured in pixels. If distance > 0 the robot is set to move ahead. If distance < 0 the robot is set to move back. If distance = 0 the robot is set to stop its movement.
See Also:
ahead(double), back(double), setBack(double)

setBack

public void setBack(double distance)
Sets the robot to move back by distance measured in pixels when the next execution takes place.

This call returns immediately, and will not execute until you call execute() or take an action that executes.

Note that both positive and negative values can be given as input, where positive values means that the robot is set to move back, and negative values means that the robot is set to move ahead. If 0 is given as input, the robot will stop its movement, but will have to decelerate till it stands still, and will thus not be able to stop its movement immediately, but eventually.

Example:

   // Set the robot to move 50 pixels back
   setBack(50);

   // Set the robot to move 100 pixels ahead
   // (overrides the previous order)
   setBack(-100);

   ...
   // Executes the last setBack()
   execute();
 

Parameters:
distance - the distance to move measured in pixels. If distance > 0 the robot is set to move back. If distance < 0 the robot is set to move ahead. If distance = 0 the robot is set to stop its movement.
See Also:
back(double), ahead(double), setAhead(double)

setTurnLeft

public void setTurnLeft(double degrees)
Sets the robot's body to turn left by degrees when the next execution takes place.

This call returns immediately, and will not execute until you call execute() or take an action that executes.

Note that both positive and negative values can be given as input, where negative values means that the robot's body is set to turn right instead of left.

Example:

   // Set the robot to turn 180 degrees to the left
   setTurnLeft(180);

   // Set the robot to turn 90 degrees to the right instead of left
   // (overrides the previous order)
   setTurnLeft(-90);

   ...
   // Executes the last setTurnLeft()
   execute();
 

Parameters:
degrees - the amount of degrees to turn the robot's body to the left. If degrees > 0 the robot is set to turn left. If degrees < 0 the robot is set to turn right. If degrees = 0 the robot is set to stop turning.
See Also:
setTurnLeftRadians(double), turnLeft(double), turnLeftRadians(double), turnRight(double), turnRightRadians(double), setTurnRight(double), setTurnRightRadians(double)

setTurnRight

public void setTurnRight(double degrees)
Sets the robot's body to turn right by degrees when the next execution takes place.

This call returns immediately, and will not execute until you call execute() or take an action that executes.

Note that both positive and negative values can be given as input, where negative values means that the robot's body is set to turn left instead of right.

Example:

   // Set the robot to turn 180 degrees to the right
   setTurnRight(180);

   // Set the robot to turn 90 degrees to the left instead of right
   // (overrides the previous order)
   setTurnRight(-90);

   ...
   // Executes the last setTurnRight()
   execute();
 

Parameters:
degrees - the amount of degrees to turn the robot's body to the right. If degrees > 0 the robot is set to turn right. If degrees < 0 the robot is set to turn left. If degrees = 0 the robot is set to stop turning.
See Also:
setTurnRightRadians(double), turnRight(double), turnRightRadians(double), turnLeft(double), turnLeftRadians(double), setTurnLeft(double), setTurnLeftRadians(double)

setFire

public void setFire(double power)
Sets the gun to fire a bullet when the next execution takes place. The bullet will travel in the direction the gun is pointing.

This call returns immediately, and will not execute until you call execute() or take an action that executes.

The specified bullet power is an amount of energy that will be taken from the robot's energy. Hence, the more power you want to spend on the bullet, the more energy is taken from your robot.

The bullet will do (4 * power) damage if it hits another robot. If power is greater than 1, it will do an additional 2 * (power - 1) damage. You will get (3 * power) back if you hit the other robot. You can call Rules#getBulletDamage(double)} for getting the damage that a bullet with a specific bullet power will do.

The specified bullet power should be between Rules.MIN_BULLET_POWER and Rules.MAX_BULLET_POWER.

Note that the gun cannot fire if the gun is overheated, meaning that Robot.getGunHeat() returns a value > 0.

An event is generated when the bullet hits a robot, wall, or another bullet.

Example:

   // Fire a bullet with maximum power if the gun is ready
   if (getGunHeat() == 0) {
       setFire(Rules.MAX_BULLET_POWER);
   }
   ...
   execute();
 

Parameters:
power - the amount of energy given to the bullet, and subtracted from the robot's energy.
See Also:
setFireBullet(double), fire(double), fireBullet(double), getGunHeat(), getGunCoolingRate(), onBulletHit(BulletHitEvent), onBulletHitBullet(BulletHitBulletEvent), onBulletMissed(BulletMissedEvent)

setFireBullet

public Bullet setFireBullet(double power)
Sets the gun to fire a bullet when the next execution takes place. The bullet will travel in the direction the gun is pointing.

This call returns immediately, and will not execute until you call execute() or take an action that executes.

The specified bullet power is an amount of energy that will be taken from the robot's energy. Hence, the more power you want to spend on the bullet, the more energy is taken from your robot.

The bullet will do (4 * power) damage if it hits another robot. If power is greater than 1, it will do an additional 2 * (power - 1) damage. You will get (3 * power) back if you hit the other robot. You can call Rules.getBulletDamage(double) for getting the damage that a bullet with a specific bullet power will do.

The specified bullet power should be between Rules.MIN_BULLET_POWER and Rules.MAX_BULLET_POWER.

Note that the gun cannot fire if the gun is overheated, meaning that Robot.getGunHeat() returns a value > 0.

A event is generated when the bullet hits a robot (BulletHitEvent), wall (BulletMissedEvent), or another bullet (BulletHitBulletEvent).

Example:

   Bullet bullet = null;
 

// Fire a bullet with maximum power if the gun is ready if (getGunHeat() == 0) { bullet = setFireBullet(Rules.MAX_BULLET_POWER); } ... execute(); ... // Get the velocity of the bullet if (bullet != null) { double bulletVelocity = bullet.getVelocity(); }

Parameters:
power - the amount of energy given to the bullet, and subtracted from the robot's energy.
Returns:
a Bullet that contains information about the bullet if it was actually fired, which can be used for tracking the bullet after it has been fired. If the bullet was not fired, null is returned.
See Also:
setFire(double), Bullet, fire(double), fireBullet(double), getGunHeat(), getGunCoolingRate(), onBulletHit(BulletHitEvent), onBulletHitBullet(BulletHitBulletEvent), onBulletMissed(BulletMissedEvent)

addCustomEvent

public void addCustomEvent(Condition condition)
Registers a custom event to be called when a condition is met. When you are finished with your condition or just want to remove it you must call removeCustomEvent(Condition).

Example:

   // Create the condition for our custom event
   Condition triggerHitCondition = new Condition("triggerhit") {
       public boolean test() {
           return (getEnergy() <= trigger);
       }
   }

   // Add our custom event based on our condition
   addCustomEvent(triggerHitCondition);
 

Parameters:
condition - the condition that must be met.
Throws:
NullPointerException - if the condition parameter has been set to null.
See Also:
Condition, removeCustomEvent(Condition)

removeCustomEvent

public void removeCustomEvent(Condition condition)
Removes a custom event that was previously added by calling addCustomEvent(Condition).

Example:

   // Create the condition for our custom event
   Condition triggerHitCondition = new Condition("triggerhit") {
       public boolean test() {
           return (getEnergy() <= trigger);
       }
   }

   // Add our custom event based on our condition
   addCustomEvent(triggerHitCondition);
   ...
   do something with your robot
   ...
   // Remove the custom event based on our condition
   removeCustomEvent(triggerHitCondition);
 

Parameters:
condition - the condition that was previous added and that must be removed now.
Throws:
NullPointerException - if the condition parameter has been set to null.
See Also:
Condition, addCustomEvent(Condition)

clearAllEvents

public void clearAllEvents()
Clears out any pending events in the robot's event queue immediately.

See Also:
getAllEvents()

execute

public void execute()
Executes any pending actions, or continues executing actions that are in process. This call returns after the actions have been started.

Note that advanced robots must call this function in order to execute pending set* calls like e.g. setAhead(double), setFire(double), setTurnLeft(double) etc. Otherwise, these calls will never get executed.

In this example the robot will move while turning:

   setTurnRight(90);
   setAhead(100);
   execute();

   while (getDistanceRemaining() > 0 && getTurnRemaining() > 0) {
       execute();
   }

onCustomEvent

public void onCustomEvent(CustomEvent event)
This method is called when a custom condition is met.

See the sample robots for examples of use, e.g. the sample.Target robot.

Specified by:
onCustomEvent in interface IAdvancedEvents
Parameters:
event - the custom event that occurred
See Also:
addCustomEvent(robocode.Condition), CustomEvent, Event

setEventPriority

public void setEventPriority(String eventClass,
                             int priority)
Sets the priority of a class of events.

Events are sent to the onXXX handlers in order of priority. Higher priority events can interrupt lower priority events. For events with the same priority, newer events are always sent first. Valid priorities are 0 - 99, where 100 is reserved and 80 is the default priority.

Example:

   setEventPriority("RobotDeathEvent", 15);
 

The default priorities are, from highest to lowest:

         WinEvent:             100 (reserved)
         SkippedTurnEvent:     100 (reserved)
   StatusEvent:           99
         CustomEvent:           80
         MessageEvent:          75
         RobotDeathEvent:       70
         BulletMissedEvent:     60
         BulletHitBulletEvent:  55
         BulletHitEvent:        50
         HitByBulletEvent:      40
         HitWallEvent:          30
         HitRobotEvent:         20
         ScannedRobotEvent:     10
   PaintEvent:             5
         DeathEvent:            -1 (reserved)
 

Note that you cannot change the priority for events with the special priority value -1 or 100 (reserved) as these event are system events. Also note that you cannot change the priority of CustomEvent. Instead you must change the priority of the condition(s) for your custom event(s).

Parameters:
eventClass - the name of the event class (string) to set the priority for
priority - the new priority for that event class
Since:
1.5, the priority of DeathEvent was changed from 100 to -1 in order to let robots process pending events on its event queue before it dies. When the robot dies, it will not be able to process events.
See Also:
getEventPriority(String), setInterruptible(boolean)

setInterruptible

public void setInterruptible(boolean interruptible)
Call this during an event handler to allow new events of the same priority to restart the event handler.

Example:

   public void onScannedRobot(ScannedRobotEvent e) {
       fire(1);
       setInterruptible(true);
       ahead(100); // If you see a robot while moving ahead,
                   // this handler will start from the top
                   // Without setInterruptible(true), we wouldn't
                   // receive scan events at all!
       // We'll only get here if we don't see a robot during the move.
       out.println("Ok, I can't see anyone");
   }
 

Overrides:

turnGunRightRadians

public void turnGunRightRadians(double radians)
Immediately turns the robot's gun to the right by radians. This call executes immediately, and does not return until it is complete, i.e. when the angle remaining in the gun's turn is 0.

Note that both positive and negative values can be given as input, where negative values means that the robot's gun is set to turn left instead of right.

Example:

   // Turn the robot's gun 180 degrees to the right
   turnGunRightRadians(Math.PI);

   // Afterwards, turn the robot's gun 90 degrees to the left
   turnGunRightRadians(-Math.PI / 2);
 

Overrides:
turnGunRightRadians in class _AdvancedRadiansRobot
Parameters:
radians - the amount of radians to turn the robot's gun to the right. If radians > 0 the robot's gun will turn right. If radians < 0 the robot's gun will turn left. If radians = 0 the robot's gun will not turn, but execute.

turnRadarLeftRadians

public void turnRadarLeftRadians(double radians)
Immediately turns the robot's radar to the left by radians.

This call executes immediately, and does not return until it is complete, i.e. when the angle remaining in the radar's turn is 0.

Note that both positive and negative values can be given as input, where negative values means that the robot's radar is set to turn right instead of left.

Example:

   // Turn the robot's radar 180 degrees to the left
   turnRadarLeftRadians(Math.PI);

   // Afterwards, turn the robot's radar 90 degrees to the right
   turnRadarLeftRadians(-Math.PI / 2);
 

Overrides:
turnRadarLeftRadians in class _AdvancedRadiansRobot
Parameters:
radians - the amount of radians to turn the robot's radar to the left. If radians > 0 the robot's radar will turn left. If radians < 0 the robot's radar will turn right. If radians = 0 the robot's radar will not turn, but execute.
