In java we started messing around with a program called robocode. It's a free program available here, where you code your own robot in java to destroy other robots. I find it fairly entertaining. To start the download click here.

For those who might have problems do this:
Go to control panel and open add/remove programs.
Scroll down to Java 2 SDK (or something similar but it needs to be SDK) and click change.
Choice modify when prompted.
Make sure that harddrive with no other icons with it is chose for Public Java Runtime Environment.
The procede with installation.

**You must know java inorder to get this to work.

Ahh yeaha I remember that man that program is crazy. I remember one of my friends built this robot that all it did is avoid bullets and fire and it was able to fire at robots that were moving and hit them (by calculating movments).
Its a good learning experience.

Ahh! That was my idea. I'm working on kinda the same thing. If there's only one robot left it calculates where they're moving and when the fire a bullet and dodges and shoots. I haven't come up with something good for multirobot battles yet.
