Programming For MAXIMUM SPEED in Bots Are Stupid! 

Surely I can't be the only one who's had this "too fast" problem.

Tyler you don't even know how much I need you to go back and get a top time on the leaderboards of earlier levels, like you did for Poly Bridge. Love this series, and this video!

Tyler: "The orbs take time to register? That's bullshit!" Every TASer: First time?

TYLER! Some tips on maintaining momentum: When you hook onto a wall, you will lose momentum the farther off from the swing angle you are. Since the hook is shot out at 45 degrees, you want your movement direction to be as close to perpendicular to the direction you shot the hook in order to conserve as much of your momentum as possible. Additionally, there's a settings button which allows you to turn on hitboxes to see how close to spikes or walls you can get before you collide with them, or change the playback speed. And if you right click on a line of code, the simulation will fast forward until that part is reached, allowing you to test a piece of code without replaying the entire level.

This turned from "reach the goal ASAP" to "collect all orbs ASAP and wait for them to register"

The most human being sentence ever "I understand this new method is superior. I dont want to use it, I like my old way better."

I remember at the beginning when you said that you'll probably care way more about getting less lines of code rather than getting fast times, and yet you've only done the opposite so far lol

IDK if Tyler would like them but i would totally watch more programing games like Human Resource Machine, SHENZHEN I/O, Hacknet, or EXAPUNKS. (PS: the last 3 are way more programming than HRM which is a bit closer to just commands)

This is a fun game, but I hope someday the soundtrack will be more than a 10 second loop.

I'm honestly surprised that it's taken this long to find a game with this concept. I mean, TASing has been around for a VERY long time, but now an approachable version is available to the general public. I wonder if someone playing this game will one day actually go fully into TASing

15:45 thats why they introduced waiting in frames yknow

Hey got into the game because of your videos and I love it! I made custom maps 123-crane and 123-spirale if you ever want to try them, if you do try spirale, I'm sorry... Also you can look up people's route by clicking on the time when selecting a level and on score in custom maps love the vids keep it up!

Have you played any Zachtronics games, like TIS-100 or Shenzhen I/O? They might be up your alley if you're interested in more programming-focused puzzles.

running at 100 fps 1 frame would be 0.01, you've been using frames this entire time tyler.

Tyler’s refusal to just watch and view what would happen and make decisions based off that hurts me as a programmer

the orbs not getting to the exit in time is a really big flaw in the game, wtf Like... It's literally a game about simplifying TAS but then it has an entirely preventable bottleneck issue. Really hope that gets updated.

Mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell

when you're whizzing by it just hook down to grab the platform so you lose all your speed and you're hooked into the portal

You are setting tickrate to 1000 which means the game goes in 0.001 second increments (ticks) but the smallest adjustment you make seems to only be in 0.010 second increments. I'm just curious as to why you seemed to latch onto setting the tickrate to 1000 at the start of all your programs after being told about that mechanic. By default the game runs are 200 ticks per second which is 0.005 second increments, which should be plenty. When you adjust by 0.010 seconds you're effectively only running at 100 ticks. You could also adjust the tick rate to make single stepping forward and backwards in ticks more efficient. Set the tickrate to 100 or even 50 at first, then when you need to fine tune, set the tickrate back up again and single step through ticks to get the perfect timing. Hope this helps you understand the tickrate mechanic a bit better

Ah, the pinnacle of coding: `wait` statements scattered everywhere

i feel like working in fractions of a second could have been avoided if you used frames

We need to go even deeper. We need TAS speedruns of this game.

When you're here so fast that there aren't any video cards at the end. (Had a mental blank on what they're actually called.)

try the game Turing complete by levelhead. it's still early access but a good puzzle game. got a steep learning curve to it. could be easy for you, if you know how to build and program a computer from the apollo program from scratch. probably aimed at people taking a computer course seeing as it's got such a learning curve to it. think about it?

Can’t wait until Tyler discovers how people go *really* fast

I saw the time and started refreshing

This "too fast" problem reminds me of that "Suffering from Success" meme

I would LOVE to see this game optimized

Your amazing videos and streams made me buy so many great games and not regret a single one! Even this game!

Don’t forget, while on the ground, you can use the stop command to stop moving left or right - it just doesn’t work in the air

Excited for another video of Bots are Stupid!

14:20 you can check frame by frame when you are boosted remove the wait till boosted and add the time to the wait seconds and youd get line less code

I gotta say, I love this game.

Tyler I recommanded you to watch the fastest time to know how to pogo jump, it’s take you so much speed and with it I get 1st in Basic II and 1st on Easy IV, and got good time on other map too.

Am I the only one that thinks that the "wait until" is basically useless? Like most of the time the timing of that isn’t quite right so you have to wait a little bit more, so in the end you have 2 "wait" in a row and they can be condensed in a single "wait". Also the "wait until" would normally be useful if you don’t know exactly when the condition is gonna happen, but in this game with ZERO randomness, it’s pointless

Tyler can I suggest a game that I know you will absolutely love if you already haven't played it. Outer Wilds. Its one of the most beautiful and immersing games I've ever played. Its not a straight up puzzle game but it revolves around knowledge because of a core mechanic that is executed wonderfully. Travel to the outer reaches of space and explore the universe, with its fantastic music, great controls, and focus on exploration over combat.

i'm loving this series so much

This must've been an old recording, the lowest leaderboard rank for Medium 1 is already at 1182 as of me writing this

have you ever played any zachtronics games? because i feel like you’d love them, especially exapunks

Not the person into coding but this game seems kinda fun

Watching 2 years later, the cringe from Tyler's "tickrate 1000" gets me every time😅

A full game Speedrun of this would be very interesting

some advice: turn hitboxes on so you know how close you are to dying. i only do it for the player and the spikes

In that last puzzle, couldn't he have just jump to reach the portal?

that good feeling when your code actually works

You should play the deck building, auto battler game called "Super Auto Pets". Its free on steam.

Love this game and this channel

I'd love to see a run for top 5 speed on a level!

1:06 you can stop maybe

5:58 I did i loop their big brain (not 2 loops 1 complete one)

Love this

You have achieved TASer

Guys if you watch his vids in the morning instead of midnight you get a lot less Tyler burnout. Or I did at least

mfw tyler forgets there's a stop command

WWE ARE REACHCING MAXIMMUM VELOCIPY

No point in changing tickrate if you don't wait on frames, you change nothing really

This is a comment. Algorithm happy now.

Very nifty!

Day 3 of asking Aliensrock to play human resource machine

At least you could doo -tickrate 1000 Even whitout using the frame period you could still advance the frame per 0.001

spEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED

pls watch the wr after you beat a level

How about you play jalopy?

Heyo 👋

Ok düd

It says 1 view but I know I’m not first so it doesn’t matter

Day 370 of telling Tyler that he never finished his minecraft series and that he should finish it.

In the first 100 comments

grammar are wrong

Third

I agree that orb pickup should be instant. What a dumb game mechanic that only exists to slow players down. At least I know not to get this game.

1st, noooooooooo, i wasnt, wait, now I am, I was 3rd, then comment got deleted, so I was 2nd, now the other that was made first got deleted
