Numsgil:
I've posted the details here in the news section.  It basically gives you a directory and sets everything up so you can compile the code (assuming you have the dependancies of course).
 
 It also includes an executable for people curious to see how the program is progressing thus far.  Note that I wouldn't even consider it pre Alpha (though it's very close).

I would like people who haven't installed the dependancies or even have an interest in the code to try running the program so I can see if I need to include certain DLLs or not.

Testlund:
Ok, I've checked it out. This is not supposed to be a working program just yet, right? Just a picture of it, so to speak? I'm not sure what to say about it at the moment. Looks like some new stuff has been made while other stuff is missing, like the mutation settings for instance.

Looks a little weird when you start the program. There's this big square wich can be moved around and some strange bot frozen down in the left corner. That black thing...Is it it's vision radius?

Numsgil:
Yeah, the big black semi circle is the vision radius.  If bots are stuck down in the left corner it means the settings file doesn't have them distributed right for some reason.  Until I code a bot placement control you'll need to edit the settings file manually.  Lucky for you it's in ascii and well labeled, so you might be able to figure it out.

The mutations GUI just hasn't been programmed yet.  The code is in place.

I'm mostly interested if it runs at all.  If it is it means I probably don't have to include any additional DLLs, which is nice.

Oh, can you see if the Total Cycles counter is increasing?

If it's not it means the engine performed an illegal operation.  I haven't coded any error handling so it basically just stops and terminates the engine while still displaying the bots and letting you play with the GUI.

Testlund:
So it's supposed to run now?? The reason why I asked is that the program appear complete dead. Nothing happens. No bots or anything. It's just that little frozen bot down in the left corner right when I start the program.

Well... Actually it runs. Numbers are counting at the bottom of the screen, but the bots appear frozen in the lower left and upper right corners. I don't know enough about ascii to mess with the settings file.

Numsgil:
Ascii just means plain text.  Like I'm typing right now.

Did you try "load settings" button?  There are two sets of settings I've included, one that loads when you start the program and another that loads when you go to the options menu and click load settings.  Are you getting the options menu to open?

When I run the program I see a bunch of green veggies distributed across the screen with some blue animal minimalis floating around eating them.  When you click load settings you should see a bunch of enitor comesum that are rather quite lame at the moment.

I need to figure out why you're getting different results, so please be patient with me
