Excess nrg -> body, excess body -> death

(1/6) > >>

Jez:
Partly to deal with the problem of big Berthas but mostly 'cause I'm having to wait for the first match between 100's of Anubis Canis and 5 Atrium Venator's(Dark Hunter) to finish (at about 10 cycles/sec).

It seems a shame that excess nrg (over 32000) isn't being turned directly into body. I presume it's not anyway 'cause Dark Hunter seems to spend most its time at >31900 nrg but its body is growing quite slowly (12k cycles 8k body)

To go with that, punishing Berthas, if body gets over a limit, say 25k or 30k why not give them Altzheimers in the same way excess waste is punished?

Seems a biologically sound idea to me;

excess food = excess fat = less mobility & more chance of heart failure etc

***

The question is; will Dark Hunter ever reproduce before it dies of waste? (16k cycles now still only 8.5k body) Or will Anubis Canis just die from boredom?

Light:
Neither of them have any body genes so there not really going to grow, Dark hunter doesn't have any repro gene so will never reproduce and as waste is disabled it wont die of it, Anubis Canis is so small in size and terrible at aiming that its never going to kill off the Dark hunters, I think its pretty much a stalemate. I think you could leave it all day and nothing will happen, call it a draw and move on. Also if they dont appear to be shooting each other its worth checking they aren't matching on cospec recognition ie both have the same .myeye value, but this isn't happening in this case

Jez:
I think you are right.

It reached 32000 waste a while ago and no mutations, this match would go on forever.

FYI, in leaugemode, the code fudges .myeye valeus for combatants with the same number of .eye statements so .myeye should always be different between contestants.  Old routine, there long before I came along, but I did fix a bug or two there.  Should be working.

Numsgil:
If you exceed 32000 nrg I think maybe the excess should either be converted into waste (10 nrg -> 1 waste) or shot out automatically through the bots front, like a "leak".

Waste for leagues should exist, I think, but very high.  Like maybe 20 000 or something around there.
