a hive, just wandered on losing energy until 'poof'

That is an issue with the settings that I posted. I didn't realize until afterward that the cost of a store is set to 5 energy. That is ridiculously high and I have no idea how it got set that big. Make it about 0.2 and they will survive to start a colony.

the energy gets stuck right around 5000, dipping to 49xx something
and back to 5000, nothing else ever happening.

Yeah. I saw that too. I think there is some kind of glitch. If you grab one of these bots and pull it away from the veggies, it will go straight back in and reach 30,000 almost instantly.
--- Quote ---btw, as they have to get to 30000 before moving on ...
why start them way down at 5000?
just wondering.
--- End quote ---
because at some point they start to convert energy to body. The code assumes that if they are at 30,000 (rather than the trigger at 32,000) then they must be feeding pretty well so they will search for food and simultaneously store body, then often not make it to a food source or become a queen ever. Probably need to reprogram that part of the DNA when I get around to it.

Dunno, but he has a particularly good grasp on complex chains of commands and how the stack works. Kind of makes me wonder if Endy has cloned himself :D

Hi :D
OK, seems like this project could take off. I've already got some Ideas as to how to orgainse the construction of Wraithbot/Hivebot.
Thanks to Henk and Ulciscor :D
Henk: If you want something to do now then go over PY's antbot and Black Ant and take a good look at the code :)
Ulciscor: Thanks, we'll need some moral support and 'people coordination' :)
Henk and Ulciscor: If you know how to manage/edit wikis then you will be in charge of that as of right now :)
Numsgil:
I can help a little bit. Especially with the code architecture, to help keep all the parts organized maybe.
Old Henk:
I can help, too. I'm no Endy-like-DNA-Master, but I know how to write a bot or two :)
