Hi, try to open and examine the sample robots from the robot editor.
Here you can get a real good example of how to setup a robot.
Regarding changing colors, you can call e.g. setBodyColor
(java.awt.Color.RED); in order to change the body of your robot to
red. Please look in the robot API available from the Help menu in
order to get more information about the API for Robocode.
You should also have a look on the famous RoboWiki at:
http://robowiki.net..which contains all information needed for both beginners and
hardcore Robocoders. :-)
Best regards,
