Re: Re: e.getBearing() returns angles with errors

Either open up the console window by clicking on your robot's name in
the battle display (all the System.out.println() goes there) or you can
open your robots window and enable painting, which lets you display
directly on the battlefield.

Take a look at robowiki.net for implementation details - there are lots
of open source bots which use painting for all sorts of uses.

Hope this helps
