In this game you program robots to do certain commands and then battle in an arena with other players or computer opponents. Not sure how active it is anymore, but it sounds like what you are looking for.
*Edit- poor spelling
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.GFX47.Gladiabots&hl=en_US Here's a game that shows that this is at least a fun concept. Gladiabots is pretty good, and has a lot of the features you mentioned!
Great! Buying it right now. Any plans to put it on mobile?
Edit: Nevermind. Found it on the play store. Buying it there instead, as my playing time in front to a PC right now is minimum. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.GFX47.Gladiabots&hl=en

Game I played a while back. Basically you program your own bots based on certain conditions and get them to fight it out against pre-built ai. Maybe it could help give some insight.

Gladiabots did something similar, with a visual programming system easy to learn but a bit complicated to debug. It's not roundbased and movement control is based on approaching objectives and fleeing from enemies
Gladiabots, joguinho onde você monta a IA do seus robôs e coloca eles para batalhar com a IA de outros jogadores. Deveras interessante, apesar de estar apanhando um pouco pra aprender.
Gladiabots is quite different to SpaceChem and Lightbot in gameplay terms, but it scratches the same itch. You program the AI of robots using a drag and drop interface in order to win fights.
It's not exactly free to play in the traditional sense. It's more like a demo with an optional one-off purchase to unlock a few additional things.
Played this years ago and had a good time, why not see how far its gone since - here's a link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.GFX47.Gladiabots

GAME:
No ads | IAP
Program your bots to fight in groups against other bots as well as complete tasks given (within some time limit).
The tutorials are in itself very interesting if you like simple modular programming using flow charts. Just simple conditions that when clubbed together becomes quite powerful. Will make you come back and try to improve those logic flow charts to do things even better. You don't feel restricted.

Lets you keep track of changes in website without firing up your browser all the time. You can set it to sync in the background or do it manually as per your needs. The interface is pretty, like really good. Kinda resembles like Hurry.
Gladiabots - pretty intense robot AI programming and the dev is active.
This is a great asynchronous game, though I can't remember if you can choose your opponents.
Gladiabots might fit your needs
Gladiobots should work for this.
reminds me the robots of this game. It is awsome I really like it!
You can code your own with Gladiabots

I like programming games. Here are few :
All theses game are (like factorio) not compatible with real life, and require a brain.
Gladiabots is definitely that and it has zero p2w. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.GFX47.Gladiabots
Maybe Linkme bot was killed by someone's attack bot.
