Win Conditions

There are three ways to end a match.

1. Absolute Dominance

If at any point a player has permanently deposited > 50% of the total algae on the map: * Result: Immediate Victory.

2. Time Limit

If the game reaches 500 Ticks:

• The game ends.
• Winner: Information based on Permanent Algae count.
  • Player with most deposited algae wins.
  • If tied, it interprets as a Draw.

3. Timeout

The Code Runner maintains a Timeout Score for each bot.

• Timeout Event: If a bot's code times out or crashes, its Timeout Score increases.
• Normal Execution: If the bot executes successfully, its Timeout Score decreases (or stays at 0).
• Disqualification: If the Timeout Score reaches 5, the match ends immediately, and that player loses.
