what does this mean

(1/1)

scood:
what does

*.trefvelscalar .dn store

mean?

it was a mutation of

 *.eye5 .dn store

gave up his last eye

Numsgil:
trefvelscalar returns the magnitude of velocity (ie: speed) of the bot that's currently tied to it through its active tie.  Or that's the idea anyway, it wasn't really ever tested thoroughly I don't think, so there could be odd issues with it.

In this context, it probably should just be considered Muller's ratchet.  That is, the breaking of a healthy statement into one that is less useful or useless.  I don't see how it could be of all that much use to a bot, even one with a sophisticated tieing system.

scood:
thnx...
I think running evolution sims is a great way to learn how to program a bot, lets you know all the possibilities

scood:
and another question...


how many senses does a bot haved?

Endy:
Touch, sight, and taste(shots). They can also receive/retrieve information via ties. Most bots just use Sight via the eyes. If you're feeling up to a challenge try making a completly blind bot.  Hard as heck to make them survive.
