Here's my solution for the RRobots challenge... kinda right down to the wire on posting it, and it's still not really finished, but... oh well, what're you going to do? Bit longish for posting the source code directly. Contest peoples should ignore the SporkBotDebug.rb file, that's there to help out other bot authors with debugging. Everyone else who's having trouble getting bots to do exactly what you wanted might want to check it out. Being able to draw debug stuff right on the battlefield can be amazingly helpful. http://sporkmonger.com/files/SporkBot.zip Cheers, Bob Aman
