Self-Modifying DNA

<< < (3/3)

Welwordion:
Certain bacteria start to exchange genes ones a critical condition occurs in order to develop an appropraite adaption to the situation.
Comparable bots could have different tags aplied to different genes and once a certain situation arises the bot could raise the mutation value of a certain type of tag.
So if you have problems finding your food you could raise the value on tags for your sensory system and if you use to much energy in hunting compared to the energy you gain you could try to change the  value of tags for your feeding system.
So basically their would be tag mutations deciding if a gene would belong to a certain tag number and tag activation genes that control the conditions under which those tags are activated.

Numsgil:
Oo, that gives me a good idea.

Let's apply mutation multipliers to codules (that are discussed elsewhere in the suggestions forum).  That solves so many potential problems I'm going to give myself a pat on the back.
