[20:25] But thats since I have no idea what the goal is [20:25] were can I find that kind of Information? [20:26] See eg corewar.co.uk [20:27] Ive been there [20:27] But I didnt find it really Quick :/ [20:27] I found lots of Language Documentatins [20:27] See the 'Tutorials' link [20:28] In particular http://vyznev.net/corewar/guide.html [20:28] Well I started on reading: http://vyznev.net/corewar/guide.html [20:28] But, I didnt find the Target in there [20:28] the goal [20:28] but ill read it again.. thanks [20:28] "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] I got that ;) [20:29] But I domnt know how to do that.. :P [20:29] Bomb the hell out of Random Cores? or Move as much as I can? [20:31] See the end of (eg) http://corewar.co.uk/chapter1.txt [20:31] Thanks [20:37] Ah, do I get it? [20:37] Your code is in the Memory [20:37] And the program that stops the Quickest Loses? [20:37] IF your Code is Huge its easy to Locate and stop the Process. [20:38] 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] That's it :-) [20:38] Although there are ways you can deal with imps :-) [20:39] ImpGate [20:39] Being the simplest. [20:39] I think I start to get it now [20:39] I think I also understand the Weird screen in pmars now [20:39] Well, I really like to learn pmars. [20:40] Since I am really a Fan of ASM [20:40] heh [20:40] makes you look smart ;) [20:48] Yey my first bot or draws. or loses:P [21:33] Join: auroon joined #corewars [21:33] hello [21:34] * pak21 waves [21:35] are there any ways for osx users to try out core wars? [21:35] i saw the pmars for macintosh, but its too old and wont let me run it [21:40] guess not :P [21:45] You could compile pmars for yourself? [21:45] good point [21:45] was still kind of hoping that there was one out there for download [21:45] and something that seemed a bit more recent [21:47] Redcode hasn't changed since pMARS was written.
