My population graph attached.
My sim has some pretty aggressive costs. 100 for a tie, 6 for a shot. There aren't any shots in my sim, oddly enough. Veggies are getting paid based on their body, so whatit looks like is Predator is nrg sharing with the veggies, keeping them at barely 40 or 50 nrg, while their body grows to give more nrg.
Multiply seems to die at the hand of Predator really quickly. Check out that blip in Multiply's pop numbers when some predtor were reintroduced into the sim.
EricL:
Strange. I keep seeing Multiply's coming in from your sim Nums, coming in to all three of mine, more Multiplys than anythign else, more than exist in the entire multisim. I wonder if we have some stuck dbo files somewhere...
Numsgil:
Maybe, but I actually had a pretty good pop of multiplys until about 4 or 5 hours ago. How long is the queue?
EricL:
Oh, okay then. From your graph, it looked like you hadn't had Multiplys for awhile. Last bunch I got from you was at 6:30pm PST.
Queue is pretty much real time most of the time, at least it has been those times I've checked. Bots maybe spend a minute or two in limbo between sims, but that's about it it seems. I back off sending if I can't download, which is why the teleporter goes intrasim. If you don't get 10 bots in a poll, you either drained the queue or had a silent connection hiccup. I max out at 10 downloads per poll...
On a related topic, I watched the coolest thing happen this afternoon. I had three sims, with three different strains of Preditor7 - one shooting all the time, one not and a third with massive multibot clusters in a high cost environment. Seemed pretty stable with no strain able to take over the other's territroy adn Multiply not able to gain a foothold in any. But then I introduced Preditor9 into the non-shooting one, where it managed to take down most of the preditor7's. But then Multiply showed up and with the Pred7 population down, was able to knock out both Pred7 and Pred9 and take over the sim. In then took over the shooting constantly one from the Pred7's there. But then the multi-tie varient was able to spread and take back the two sims over the next hour or two and I gues take over yours as well, wiping Multiply out. So cool to see specialization and colinization like this...

I'd like to get into this! I d/l the "I" version and started it up, but it's been a while since I used DBs - so I am a bit baffled by what I should do to join the F1 megaverse. I see the new shiny "IF1" button, but when I press it, it just opens a couple of windows (pop graph, internet log) and that's it. Nothing else is happening. What do I do?
Update: OK, I went through "start new sim" and now the sim has started and it says "F1 internet mode". But it asked me for "zero.txt" bot and since I don't have one, I just closed the window, so I think it just loaded the "bleednrg" bot. Will the bots come through ? I see a teleport in the sim that is set to "Internet". Does that mean it's an inbound and outbound at the same time?
Another question: Since it's an F1 mode, does that mean that ALL of the sim settings are exactly the same for everyone? Or some thing can be custom-set?
Update 2: I'm just very impatient Yes, preditor 7 came in, as well as alga minimalis. So, things seem to be working fine. Still answer the question about custom settings.
Update 3: Woo-hoooo! More bots are coming in! This is great! I think this is an awesome direction for the program. I would even suggest making this thing a default that starts automatically when new users run the prog for the first time. It's very easy, gives instant gratification and you see that things are "happenin" - I see bots of different behavior and morphology. This is fun!
