B1TB0T - 2024 Team 7

You are an OS of a computer and are tasked by the computer's user to complete certain tasks. These tasks can range from data packet delivery to cleaning memory leaks to eliminating bloatware. This is all done through the use of management bots, which you will control in binary (obviously, as computers communicate through binary!). Each bot has a different function, and you will need to use those functions to complete the tasks assigned by the computer user. Go fast, or the user may get upset and shut you down!

To control the bots you will use a binary control scheme. The left side of your keyboard (6 y g b and left) will input 0, and the right side 1. The control inputs are as follows:

0 - Forward movement

move forward a tile

110 - Right turn

90-degree right turn

111 - Left turn

90-degree left turn

100 - Bot special ability

Most of the bots have a separate special ability that coincides with their function, and that ability can be seen on the UI alongside the specific bot type you are currently controlling.

101 - Switch bot

 You can switch between bots on a level by inputting the switch mode command, and then inputting the binary key displayed on the back of the bot you want to switch to. You do not have to be touching the bot, or be able to see the bot, to switch to it. The only condition is remembering the bot's binary key.
