Challenge #2: The Maze
« on: December 25, 2006, 02:02:14 PM »
Simulation file not attached

Version required: 2.42.9r and greater

Rules:
Your bot will start in a coridoor on the left. Reproducing is not allowed. Walls are visible to bots. Your bot must have a gene that imobilises it it at age 10,000. There is a cyan bot in an area at the bottom right

Bronze objective: Find your way through the maze to the cyan bot, and kill it with shots, within 10,000 cycles

Silver objective: Find your way to the cyan bot, and bring it back to the beginning of the maze, within 10,000 cycles

Gold objective: Find the way to the cyan bot, then bring it back to the beginning of the maze, taking an optimal path (ie. no trial-and-error, the path must be direct, and you can't cross your own path), all within 10,000 cycles

Can I assume that we just use the built in "horizontal maze" function?

Also, can I also assume that we aren't allowed to delgene the immobilizing gene?

Here's the maze I'd made (by hand) for it (attached).

And yeah, delgening the immobiliser gene would be cheating.
