Diversity in plain environment

<< < (2/2)

Peter:
Can't you have two different specie's if you're using two total different kind of veggies. Example
veggie A using shell to protect himself, so shoot -6 does work less.
veggie B using poisonl to protect himself, so shoot -1 does work less.

This would favor 2 kinds of specie's and they would interact with each other without extincting the other specie. This is an example, I have'nt tested it jet but I gues this could work.

Endy:
Maybe it'll work if the bots are likewise using shell and poison to defend themselves. Otherwise the body feeder will probably win out.

Jez:
I imagine the repopulate bit for veg would also cause problems, it only works for the first bot on the list giving one of the veg an advantage.

Peter:
I am now running the simulation I was talking about 2 niches one using -1 shots the other -6. After just 20000 cycles not that long I now. The ones that are using -6 are just dominating the simulation with 500 bots against maybe 10 bots from the -1 shots, maybe I run it another with diffent settings to favor the -1 more. First see if the few -1 shot can keep up. Then I will see.


Thank's Jez for the use of stop instead of end for ending a gene.   Not anybody can make a mistake like that.
