Run robocode with your IDE

Set the VM option

-DNOSECURITY = true -Dsun.io.useCanonCaches=false

Add this line to $your_robocode_directory/config/robocode.properties , to prevent partial logging to file. If you cannot, or can only save part of your data to local files, it may be because the total size of your saved files exceeds the default disk space quota (200, 000) by Robocode. Here is a temporary solution that sets the default filesystem quota for robots:
```
robocode.robot.filesystem.quota=2000000
```
Reference
Compile your java code, with
```
mvn clean
mvn compile
mvn package
```
Remember to recompile your code everytime you modify something.
After the robocode opens, select "Options --> Preferences --> Developer options"
- Add your robot class path to the dialog,
  
  e.g. mine is,
```
$CPEN502_Project/target/classes
```
Start Battle

In robocode,
- select "Battle --> New",
- cmd + R to refresh (remember to refresh, sometime it might not appear at first)
- Select your robot and "sample.MyFirstRobot", then Click "Next"
- Number of rounds = 100000
- Click "Start Battle"
- Then you can get back to sleep 😇 Good Luck with your robots (ps. It takes me 1.5h+ to run 100000 rounds)
Draw graphs
- The output log will be in $CPEN502_Project/target/classes/robotRunnerLUT.data
- You can move those output logs to $CPEN502_Project/outputs/robotRunnerLUT.data
  
  (Since everytime you "mvn clean", the target directory will be deleted)
- Add your code in $CPEN502_Project/outputs/robotRunnerLUT.data/drawFig.py to draw a graph
