I think when you print to the console (via System.out.println, for instance), 
the text you specified can be seen by clicking on your robot's name over on the 
side of the battle screen. This is the same window one uses to turn on and off 
painting. Doing so should open a status window with some tabs, and one of those 
tabs will show what you've printed.

I forget the actual name of the window, but I hope this is helpful.

Never mind, i found the problem with the angle error. I still have the  question 
about printing out to the screen. Do I have to show the console window first? 
Let me know.
