I played this game as a kid and usually ended up writing key bindings so I could directly control the tank. But, it was so fun to experiment with different strategies.

Thanks for reminding me of the name of the game because I loved it and could never remember what it was called.

When I was a kid my friend and I played a lot. We'd bring our favorite AI programs over to each other's house to compete with the other's favorite AI.

One day I stumbled across how to set up keybindings, neither of us knew that it was a thing. I kept it to myself and invited him over, challenging him to try extra hard on his AI. He loaded it up, and I proceeded to annihilate his tank with my human controlled version. The look on his face was priceless and sticks with me to this day.
