Welcome To Darwinbots > Newbie
Help !!!
Nikica:
Thanks much, I have one more question (I hope that's the last in this theard):
What happened to Carlo is he still working on the project, is he active on the forum, or what ???
Numsgil:
He'll pop in from time to time to see what's up, but it's been a long time since he actively contributed.
Nikica:
I am now reading "Your First Simulation" and it says that I should click New Simulation -> Start siumaltion
And then it says that I should see bots but there is no "Start simulation" button, so I clicked "Start new" but I don't see bots, help ???
Jez:
Before you click 'start new' check your loaded species list, they are the bots your new simulation will use.
The first one is normally Alga_Minimalis, it should have the vegtable box ticked (if you select it), following that are normally the bots you are playing with. (Which don't have the vegtable box ticked).
From the sounds of it though you haven't got any bots in the loaded species list and if that's the case click 'add new species' and choose some bots from there.
If there are bots in the list (and you can't see any bots when you start the sim) then click on each of them and check that the 'individuals' and 'starting energy' boxes have (normally) 5 and 3000
The bots should appear as moving circles on the screen, if you still can't see anything though then tell us and we'll check some other bits.
Numsgil:
There might be some issues with older settings files. I remember Eric fixed some major bugs in the settings files that at one point made it so that older settings files wouldn't work right. I think he gave the program an "upgrader" to automatically take care of these things, but maybe it isn't working right here.
Either way, follow Jez's advice. That'll let us know what's up.
