Lets break it down now

This lovely piece of code (above) represents me and the bots I am facing. This code is important as it identifies which bot is which in the game. It is used when my bot attacks another for its mines (more on that later on).

This next string of code is used to identify which enemy bot has the most mines. This will be talked about more later as well.

This string of code is the list of priorities my bot has. My bot's first priority is its health. If my bot's health is below 26HP, it will head towards a tavern. This will give my bot enough health (hopefully) to get hit once and arrive at a tavern within 5 turns. My bot's next priority is to attack other bots if there are less than 3 free mines open. That means that the enemy bot with the most mines will get attacked, and hopefully die, which will allow me to claim his/her mines. The bot's third priority is to go to a tavern if there are no free mines open. This means that, hopefully, I will have the most mines, or at least a sufficiant amount of gold to allow me to win the game. By staying near a tavern, I am making sure my bot doesn't make unnecessary risks if it has mines that can secure a win. My bot's last priority is to go to a free mine. This is mainly so my bot can profit more off of mines that the enemy bots have already. if an enemy bot has more than one mine, I can hopefully take them without worrying too much about HP loss from fighting a bot. Besides, what's wrong with a little bloodshed?

This next area of code tells the bot how to find and head to the nearest free mine or tavern. In each string, the bot will look for the closest free mine or tavern respectively. Once it finds that mine or tavern, it will go to it.

This last string of code is for when there is nothing for my bot to do and there are no priorities for my bot to execute. When this happens, my bot will randomly go around the map until one of the priorities in the rest of the code can be executed.

First off, what is Vindinium?

This is the code for my bot:

WHAT DO ALL THOSE WORDS AND NUMBERS MEAN???
