I worked 2 days on this bot damn and it still does not even behave the slightest like I wanted to (ok a little).
Well the main point is it does not move even the slightest bit forward and I have no idea why.
That always happens when itry to take some effort in the end it does not work and I feel like a goddamn looser [you]WAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHH[/you]

PurpleYouko:
Have you tried debugging it from the console by stepping through the sim one cycle at a time and looking at the value in each relevent memory location on each cycle?

Which genes are being activated on each cycle?

Are the conditions leading to a value being stored into up, actually being met?

PurpleYouko:
I just tried your bot in Eric's new version 2.42.4

It appears to form a 2 bot MB which then spins insanely till one end or the other spots a veggie at which point it "wibbles" about ina rather strange fashion for a while until the smaller of the two bot dies and a new one is born.

After a little over 14,000 cycles I got an overflow. here is the zipped error.sim

Welwordion:
Well I yet could not control all things but at least I know that function works.
And yes, he is supposed to form a MB and the rotating is also what he is supposed to do, the wibbling is an unwanted effect probably some aiming genes are disturbing each other.
The small bot, the eye, will focus at the nearest bot, the big bot, the head, will ignore bots of his own kind while searching around. (note that I still did not built in any feeding genes, reproducing genes,waste genes etc)

When for a long time he spots no vegs he is supposed to go into swarming mode, here the head is supposed to face(move) into an direction messaged to him and the eye is supposed to read information from the other bots giving the head a vector in which he has to aim(move).

so 2.42.4 does write an error.sim???
mine didn't on my overflow error.
it should write it to the Saves folder, yes?
