Oh! You mean my little Devincio Solo?
The first tie feeding SG bot?
He was pretty cool and revolutionary at the time but then you took my concept and exploited it mercilessly to the point where the DNA looks like some weird-ass foreign language math textbook on steroids. <_<
That always seems to be my problem in DarwinBots.
I am pretty good at finding whole new concepts (like tie feeding, leach genes and so on) then somebody else refines them and beats my bot.
Makes me sad :(
Even worse is that I haven't had enough time to keep up with DB lately. This board is about all I can handle right now. I don't think I have even run a sim since Christmas. :(

I know how you feel, im snowed under, writing my dissertation. :sad2:
Still good to see some new bots and ideas, things have been a bit dry recently
Ive allways been tempted to write a 1G bot, closest Ive got was a 6G bot, but maybe sometime in the future
Numsgil:
I think things are dry because the versions are in a kind of limbo. 2.4 has issues but is also in many regards alot nicer than 2.37.
I'm hoping when I get the C++ port finished things will take off again. It's slow but steady progress.
PurpleYouko:
Hopefully with the advent of the C++ version we can all get back to what is important. Running sims and making/evolving bots.
I plan to keep 2.37 alive to some degree so that I can try out some ideas on it now and then, but the faster operational speed of C++ should make the actual program much more accessable to everyone.
Lately DB has been too much about bugs in the code and not enough about the bots.
Elite:
'Conditionless bots' - yay I coined a term :D
Has anyone with any time tested out my Una SG bot yet? Endy?
It just swarms over everything in its path like a horde of flesh-eating ants. If I entered it for the league now it could probably beat F1, F2, and SB, although hunter was a challenge to beat - I'll have to try your *.newmom style repro routine PY
It's nearing completion ... :firedevil:
I definately agree that DB should be about bots and evo rather than bugs
