Hibernation

[Jez]

Was just a thought; the info on 1G bots you come up with is miles above the information (in the wiki) that is readily available atm.
The Wiki always seems to need updating though so if you don't get time for it then don't worry!

try making a gene that makes it go back to normal if its energy drops faster than a certain rate
that would wake it up if it were attacked

You have read the thread?

Wow you're really trying to bring your post-count up.

why do you hate me?

No, no, I don't hate you, no really I don't hate you. Why do you think like that.

I asked if you have read the thread, and said something about your pst count becouse you are really really really, fast posting in every topic.

Una was originally designed as an experiment into 'hibernating' bots. Using conditionless coding, this version of Una (it's an older version) will hibernate when 1 is placed into location 51

Code: [Select]

'Una

'With hibernation command

It's also nice and broken up to make it more understandable.

All commands in the DNA (except the anti-virus, but it uses inc anyway) have the code *.hibernate mult in them. *.hibernate is set at birth to be 1, but if you set it to zero using the console, the bot goes into hibernation. While in this state it uses no energy whatsoever. The original plan was for Una to release a deadly virus into the population and come out of hibernation later when the pandemic had (hopefully) wiped out everyone else. I never got round to using this feature when I realised that gearing the bot up for hibernation had made it extrodinarily efficient. I eventually removed the *.hibernation command just before joining this forum.

The virus (or a similar virus to the one) that Una was to be using (designed to be as deadly as possible, with the *.myeye being Una's *.myeye):

Code: [Select]

cond
start
100 .vshoot store
*.thisgene .mkvirus store
? .myeye store
*.genes rnd .delgene *877 -500 add sgn 1 add 2 div mult store
877 inc
.delgene dec
stop
What do you think of the concept?

Problem is that if another bot catches you sleeping they will just kill you  
I tried making a bot that hibernated when its *.nrg fell below 100. It was reasonably sucessful.

I like the concept. If being attacked while in hibernation is a problem, perhaps a secondary virus could help. The second virus would cause the carrier to run around in circles, and then feed any hibernating ties.

[code]
cond
*40 1 =
*.hibernate 1 =
start
*.setaim inc
*51 .tienum store
'nrg' .tmemloc store
*.nrg .tmemval store
0 .shoot store
stop

[fulizer]

a simpler way to do this is to have an type changing gene
eg
type 1= hibernation
type 2= active

[JossiRossi]

Simple is not always preferable. I think the best idea is to provide the base elements that when combine correctly can do almost anything. It's about giving letters, not words and sentences.

You call that a hibernater?
THIS is a hibernater : [a href=\'index.php?showtopic=2547\']Pacifist[/a]
It should also work even if they put costs back on stores in adress 0
