I've corrected a bunch of errors and added some new stuff too. Your bot has also recieved a routine from SWARM that allows it to form very natural-looking swarms. This solves the problem of him bashing in to conspecs.

It works incredibly well now  :D

Look at him go ...

EDIT: BTW Testlund, you can't have an *.eye5 on its own outside a gene

Numsgil:
Actually you can in 2.4.  It won't do anything, but it will change what the program thinks your myeye value is, so it's useful for conspec manipulation.

Testlund:
Well, you've made the bot better, Elite, but I don't think it's a Cyanobacterium Nostoc anylonger after that change.  :P It seems a little TOO efficient now. Maybe that one should go into the Bestiary as another species.

Based on what I managed to find on internet the Nostoc species form colonies but I don't think it moves around much. I've had blue-green algea in my aquarium and it was growing on a few spots. Didn't spread much.

Testlund:
I found out that the program seem to think this bot is a veggie, so it keeps adding them when they die out, but it doesn't add any Alga Minimalis anylonger. I was wondering why that is. Is there a way to make the program think they are bots instead?

Old Henk:
Uncheck 'Vegetable, autotroph' in the species tab. ;)
