GL Golf 2.21, Computer Players

[stavitjo]

Hey Jake,
Just uploaded the new 2.21 version, and have played several rounds. Was just wondering how the new computer player scores are being generated. Is it random, or some method to what they shoot? It seems the scores the computer players score are unattainable. I took a screenprint of the scorecard after playing GL Classic, and all the computer players scored Hole in Ones on #5, #13, and #18. All of these are par 4s, and cannot be reached in 1 shot. Not even close. So just wondering if that is what you intended to happen, or just part of the programming? All 3 computer player scores would qualify for all time greatest scores, by several strokes. Here is the links:

Just wanted to see if you knew this was happening. Thanks again for all your work!!!

Thanks for the screenshot! Right now the scores are somewhat random, averaged around your score. You must have been averaging a birdie, because the computer will typically score ±1 away from your average.

I'll work on this for 2.22, I'm not sure why they are averaging lower than I intended.

Hi Jake,
Instead of or as an option to computer players' scores, would it be possible to have one's own previous best three scores shown? After all, one can only try to better one's own performance and being able to see how one did on a prior round would, I think, be very helpful.

Good idea cutler, I'll add it to the list of things to do eventually. I actually added the option to turn them off last night, that should be ready in April for 2.22
