Inspired by Eric's Pacific Island Sim I've been constructing 'planets' out of vegs with planet eaters in order to build a 'planet of the bots'
I have been experimenting with different settings and soon found that I had to give vegs a very high population limit and little (or no) energy per turn. Large vegs form unstable, 'earthquake-prone' planets that bots tend to slip through.
So my first design challenge is to encourage many small bots. A more difficult task than it sounds since small vegs get bigger.
Oh, I've got it - give the vegs no energy and they'll die, but keep repopulating the field with a constant rain of bots!
Feel free to try yourselves
