General approach to metabolism

<< < (4/9) > >>

PurpleYouko:
Just like any other robot.

The only difference is that you will need to design, copy, mutate or otherwise adjust the enzyme bit pattern to be able to interact with the e-grid in the way that you want.

There will be millions of variations to the enzyme bit pattern so some of them will work. You just need to find the right ones. After you find the right short pattern then you can build it into any long pattern file that you like.

The system is simple on the surface yet can become very complicated if you want to get deep into it. The fine tuning implications are absolutely phenomenal

For this to work you would have to be able to

1  Be able to read the e-grid. That is in the plans for the sysvars.

2  Assume that the robot will mutate before the food supply is exhausted

3  Have another species that metabolizes in the opposite direction so that the gas on which the first species feed, is the waste product of the second species. Maybe a plant that changes sunlight to methane. Any route is possible, not just real ones.

Either way it will all be automatic. the only thing that DNA will control is locating the best pockets of food gas.

Botsareus:
No , I Dont want to mutate a bot that feeds on the grid, I want a bot a simple bot to start with , and to evolve it into using sun light , or hunting for food.

The DNA I had in mind was somthing like

cond
*.nrg
3000
>
Start
'reproduce
store
Stop
Cond
Start
20
*.feedongas
Stop

Then I will watch this robot develope Photosinthasize(speller) or hunting strategy.

Botsareus:
Whats the DNA you have in mind , post it here.

If its more then DNA , post the DNA an the OTHER SETTING as well.

PurpleYouko:
I could see this working as a small group of methane producing veggies slowly releasing methane to the e-grid.

Then a few robots that feed on methane will gradually converge on the veggies location then sit peacefully around them while they feed on the plentiful gas.

One of them might mutate the ability to live on a different gas and move out to a new place to start another colony.

Cool eco-system without a single DNA controlled enzyme in sight.
