DB ver 2.42.4

Run-time error '91'
Object variable or With block variable not set

~~~
no error.sim written so I assume it is commented out in the compiled version.
will recompile from the source and run again.

I did have it set to auto save best robot every 5 min ...
and I see it did two ... the first one 5KB and the 2nd 215KB!!!

I have no idea how to read those .dbo files ...
but looking at the small one with notepad ...
I find data saved for james_4 with two mutations.

looking at the 215KB file in notepad I find data saved for james_4.txt,
with 7 mutations ... 37 times ...
and Alga_Minimalis.txt 4 times.
have attached it zipped to this post ... contains X2.dbo

I ran this sim before without using auto save, playing with age costs and
settings many times and over many cycles without an error so .... ?????

will recompile with the error.sim thing in place and let 'er run with autosave
for the bots again and see if it will repeat.

PurpleYouko:
That kind of error will not elicit the automatic save of an error.sim file.

It looks as if the program called a routine in which there is a syntax error. I get this kind of thing when running from code but the compiler should have caught this before Eric put the program up on the site.

very strange  

Griz:
ok.
haven't been able to duplicate it so far.
did you take a look at that dbo file?
is that what it should be for autosaving 'best bot'?
and ...
how does one read/use these dbo files?

Testlund:
I have my doubts that the program really saves the best bot. It whouldn't surprise me if it just choses a bot at random. The same goes for finding the best bot in the program. I bet it's just a hoax.  

What is considered the best bot? Is it how many offspring it has produced, maybe?

somewhere ...
I talked with Nums about King Bot and how it is selected ...
wanting to set up a way for the user to define the criteria.
I have searched using "king bot'  here but haven't been able to
locate the thread/posts.  there were many such posts as I recall.
????????
will continue to try to find them ...
as this is something I really would like to see incorporated ...
a User Defined/Weighted criteria ...
ie ... age, # of offspring, # of mutations, # of kills ... weighted ...
or whatever the user deems 'important' in determining what
a 'viable' bot should be.

I have zero time right now ...
you might try searching the forum with:
InvstedEnergy, King, .... ???

will see if I saved the spiels somewhere if I find time ...
as I really would like to see some sort of User Interface here.
