Odd world behaviour

Entelect Challenge 2023 Issues
1

So I’m running some matches to see if my bot runs correctly.

I’ve noticed something weird, not sure if anyone else is having this issue.
My bot cleared the first map with 5 collectible and then went into the next map, before I am able to even collect any collectible, it seems like the map resets to the beginning continuously, is this intended behaviour, I am running my bot solo so this shouldn’t be a case of another bot clearing the map and the rest of the bots moving to a new map.

Looking at the logs, I see the level still says World 0 so I don’t believe this is something related to a world skip.

You can see it here in the logs where my x and y position get reset

Ive also still not had a successful upload to the submissions queue, portal still shows as running.

I am experiencing the same issue at the moment.

4

I’ve tested with the new release and I still seem to be getting reset to the beginning of the current level.

Is there any chance that your bot lands on top of a hazard tile? Your bot will get reset to the starting position if you stand and/or collide with a hazard tile.

Ok, this makes sense, I see the same behviour then, I missed the hazard below where my bot was, this then fixes it up, thanks.
