Suggestion for Grazer: Split

[kaue]

Would be great if the bot could split once (max 2 cells) eveytime there is a purple blob close.

Im not sure if that will works good.

[kaue]

Thats the way i tend to get a really high score

You can try my branch, works well most of the time.
Unless it misses the blob, then it hunts the blob forever (this should be fixed)

[kaue]

Hey Konrad, your bot just got 7th place In the rank. Awesome! I think the
bot needs to compensate the purple cell speed to get the split right more
often, also it should chace purple blobs

@kauegimenes I got with bot to 4th place on EU server :D But i think split is not good plan, because the bot doesnt using "logic" and so... The bot will not count chances, so if he survive it would be pure luck.

@PepinCZ I think spliting has a better chance.

Here is why:

1. Almost everytime a purple blobs passes if a bot is well trained it will earn +30%
2. When you split you have more speed.
3. Since you have more speed, if the bot tries to stay in top of a yellow blob before mergin this would be a way to earn even more mass
4. Most of the time you will only louse half of your mass.

So if we could develop a bot to follow this simple rules i think it will play really well.

[ibr]

I'm back now (i think). When I get some time I'll try @ibr
https://github.com/ibr 's branch. @PepinCZ
https://github.com/PepinCZ have you tried it? thoughts?

There is a better one version here:
https://github.com/c0dedeaf/ZeachCobbler/blob/master/sniper-ZeachCobbler.user.js

Working great!

@ibr Nice! Thanks for sharing

@ibr i never saw the bot split near any purple enemy using that sniper script :S ?

EDIT: so i watched it for like 30 minutes and right after i post of course it splits to a cluster of 4 purples haha

[safarious]

I'm also interested having a option to enable and disable splitting.

@ibr I've tried the version you posted - but it keeps always freezing after a couple of minutes.
