[20:24]	<Robin> Hello all
[20:25]	<Robin> It seems that I am unable to write a Warrior that can defeat a IMP..
[20:25]	<Robin> But thats since I have no idea what the goal is
[20:25]	<Robin> were can I find that kind of Information?
[20:26]	<pak21> See eg corewar.co.uk
[20:27]	<Robin> Ive been there
[20:27]	<Robin> But I didnt find it really Quick :/
[20:27]	<Robin> I found lots of Language Documentatins
[20:27]	<pak21> See the 'Tutorials' link
[20:28]	<pak21> In particular http://vyznev.net/corewar/guide.html
[20:28]	<Robin> Well I started on reading: http://vyznev.net/corewar/guide.html
[20:28]	<Robin> But, I didnt find the Target in there
[20:28]	<Robin> the goal
[20:28]	<Robin> but ill read it again.. thanks
[20:28]	<pak21> "Core War (or Core Wars) is a programming game where assembly programs try to destroy each other in the memory of a simulated computer."
[20:29]	<Robin> I got that ;)
[20:29]	<Robin> But I domnt know how to do that.. :P
[20:29]	<Robin> Bomb the hell out of Random Cores? or Move as much as I can?
[20:31]	<pak21> See the end of (eg) http://corewar.co.uk/chapter1.txt
[20:31]	<Robin> Thanks
[20:37]	<Robin> Ah, do I get it?
[20:37]	<Robin> Your code is in the Memory
[20:37]	<Robin> And the program that stops the Quickest Loses?
[20:37]	<Robin> IF your Code is Huge its easy to Locate and stop the Process.
[20:38]	<Robin> And if you have a IMP you basicly are REALLY small and move like hell and you wait for the opponent to selfDestuct?
[20:38]	<pak21> That's it :-)
[20:38]	<pak21> Although there are ways you can deal with imps :-)
[20:39]	<Robin> ImpGate
[20:39]	<pak21> Being the simplest.
[20:39]	<Robin> I think I start to get it now
[20:39]	<Robin> I think I also understand the Weird screen in pmars now
[20:39]	<Robin> Well, I really like to learn pmars.
[20:40]	<Robin> Since I am really a Fan of ASM
[20:40]	<Robin> heh
[20:40]	<Robin> makes you look smart ;)
[20:48]	<Robin> Yey my first bot or draws. or loses:P

[21:33]	<auroon> hello
[21:34]	* pak21 waves
[21:35]	<auroon> are there any ways for osx users to try out core wars?
[21:35]	<auroon> i saw the pmars for macintosh, but its too old and wont let me run it
[21:40]	<auroon> guess not :P
[21:45]	<pak21> You could compile pmars for yourself?
[21:45]	<auroon> good point
[21:45]	<auroon> was still kind of hoping that there was one out there for download
[21:45]	<auroon> and something that seemed a bit more recent
[21:47]	<pak21> Redcode hasn't changed since pMARS was written.
