Bot Challenges: A New Direction

<< < (2/5) > >>

Botsareus:
Should be an interesting bot;

One good way to see if mutations improve a bot (now this really does not work all the time)

a.) Make to copys of your robot, lets call one bfb and the other mfb (that is the names I use in my runs)

b.) Start a new simulation with both robots and some vegys. Make sure to set mfb to reasonably high mutations and make sure to completely disable mutations for bfb.

At some point you should see the mutating robot (mfb) kill off the non mutating robot.

(I have some tricks to make this process work consistently, I just did not implement them yet)

Shadowgod2:
my first neural bot is done and is very interesting 8)

still waiting on a good useful bot though

dbv 2.46

you may have to disable each individual mutation though because of mrepro

enjoy and if you wish to modify it making it better i'd love to see

Botsareus:
Does the NN estimate itself over the robots life time?

Also, is the robot passing its NN settings to the child?


Another thing that will help is to add some basic self awareness rules.
For example: Children are naturally afraid of heights or afraid of the dark.

Our neural networks build around the hard underling rules we emotionally inherit from early childhood. Fear is one possible emotion you may work with.

Shadowgod2:
currently i've got the NNet mutations in place but i can't figure out how to pass the parent NNet to the child properly. i'm wanting to do ties to pass information through. it's becoming a mess so i'm trying to improve it the best i can and enable it to have more mobility so it can do more than one thing at once. what i have so far is in the attachment if you want to help.

Shadowgod2:
small update
