Summary

0000454: _authorid

Description

_authorid

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Value Type

numeric

Descriptions

Contains a robot's authorid. _authorid is set by the author command. Robots with the same author will have identical authorids. If no author was specified, _authorid is formed out of the default author's name: "unspecified". Each robot in a match is assigned an authorid that remains the same for the entire match. Authorids range from -2,147,483,646 to 2,147,483,646 inclusive. A robot's authorid will most likely change between matches.

A robot learns the ids of other robots during both collision and detection events through the _dtcid and _cldid system variables. Since ids do not change during a match this information can be used to distinguish one robot from another.

Additional Information

I will implement this one anyway. If it won't get in to the game I'll add the variable whit a piece of code added to every bot:

Init{Gosub(AuthorIdSection)

...

// Added by Tournament host to make _authorid and authorid variables available

AuthorIdSection
{
    strlen(_author) // just a joke :)
    _authorid = _result
    authorid = _result
}
