CoreWar "Koenigstuhl" Page


This page has been moved to asdflkj.net
and will be removed from here soon.

This hill is named after the location of the place where I worked (Max-Planck-Institute for Astronomy) until 1997 ('Koenigstuhl' translates to 'King's Chair'). Similar to Planar's Mt.Olympus (last update: 1998-08-31) this is an infinite hill. The difference is that I separated the hill into several categories and I let every program fight every other program:

    Note: "-P" (randomizing all possible starting positions) will not make the battles reproducible, because the order of the fights makes a difference with P-space.

    Any program that reaches rank-50 or higher on the "full" hill will also enter the TOP-50 hill. Programs that fall below rank-50 on both hills will be removed from the TOP-50 Koenigstuhl.

    Recursive X-Koenigstuhl

    I switched to pmars-0.9.4 and a 32-bit (little endian) score table (was 16-bit and pmars-0.9.2).
    Please note that I did not create a Battle Royale hill, since running all permutations (-P switch) on the 'X' hill would take quite some time; maybe later ...

    If you cannot find your program(s) here, please send your program to birk AT carnegiescience DOT edu with a subject line like 'Koenigstuhl entry'. Please note that the Koenigstuhl is an "archive" hill, ie. published programs only. If you would like to see how your program would do on the Koenigstuhl before you publish it, please download the appropriate hill and run your program against it.
