Current standings

1965 - Duplo
1780 - Lionfish 1.4
809 - Lionfish 4
607 - Shrinking Violet
248 - Alga_minimalis
61 - Mutatis
34 - Lionfish 5
22 - Multiply(peter)
16 - Ex. Shrinking Violet
6 - Preditor9(EricL)
2 - anemone

Multiply has fallen low, if I look now there are only 22 left. Could someone grap the dna of it, I'd like to see what have changed. Change isn't very big I'll see it teleporting in in my sim.

MacadamiaNuts:
Mmh... the population files I receive are always the same. I tried to delete them manually and wait them to be downloaded again, but got the same stats.

EricL:
I wait between 24 and 48 hours before deleting server-side pop files for inactive sims.  When is a sim really gone as opposed to just down for a bit?  24 hours minimum, 48 max was a simple easy choice.

Try it now.  I deleted them by hand.

Moonfisher:
I still can't get internet mode to work...
I switch on the F1 internet mode flag, then the log sais it's deleting the old pop files, then once the first countdown is over I get the graph.
But after that... nothing happens, the only values on the graph to change are the ones for bots that I'm running myself.

I wanted to see if Pacifist could handle the 25K internet challenge, but if I never send out my bots I don't see how that would happen.
Tryed just making a max size environment with 300 alge, but everything just froze up completely around 9K while the bot was still just getting started...
I suspect that my bot may have problems spreading through teleporters (Since they're always small and average 0-250 nrg while hibernating below 100).
I guess you could do all sorts of stuff, like disable hibernation below a certain myspecies count, or save up energy above a certain myspecies count, but it seems "unethical" to try to adjust the bot to be well suited for teleportation...
I'm hoping the infected alge minimalis would be able to clear the way, or atleast survive so it can feed incoming pacifists...

Either way it doesn't matter if I can't get internet mode to work...

Would be cool if someone would try out Pacifist on internet mode and tell me if it has a chance...

I have ahd the same problem before. Its just that the computer and the server can't establish a secure enough connection; could be a weak line or an overcrowded server. When it works you get a teleporter, I've had little success because their are no real strong anti-viral genes out there right now, so the Lionfish comes in and destroys entire sims. I would suggest making a stronger antiviral gene before using your Pacifist.
