Some bots are immortal? OPEN
Numsgil:
Watch this sim run. There's a single infected bot, lots of stupid veggies, and a single smart veggy with apoptosis (it kills itself if it detects infection). After a while an equilibrium is reached between the apoptosis veggy and the dumb veggy repoping.
Until, after just a few seconds running, an immortal bot appears. An apoptosis veggy with a viral infection, attempting to kill itself, yet not only not dying, but growing! It doesn't spread the virus either, but I'm having a hard time deciding if this is because all the bots with this immortality have the virus inserted before the apoptosis gene, or if similar immortal bots are killed producing new viruses. You can tell these immortals because they're the only ones shooting.
Numsgil:
Another bug in that same sim: let it run for a few minutes. Check on a couple of the immortals. They seem to occasionally get animal minimalis genes. Why?
EricL:
Hmmm. I don't see any immortals. They all seem to die. But I don't have the SlimeMaker.txt bot file, so I cancel the opne dialog and it doessn't get repopulated, only Alga Min gets repopulated....
Are you maybe overlooking that repopulation chooses between all veggies now?

Here's slimemaker:
--- Code: ---'Slime prevent virus
'start
'50 *.slime sub 0 floor .mkslime store
'stop
'apoptosis when infected:
start
*50 0 = *.dnalen 50 store
*50 *.dnalen != *.nrg 99 mult 100 div .shootval store
-2 .shoot store
0 .mkvirus store
1000 .mkslime store
1000 .strvenom store
1000 .mkshell store
1000 .mkpoison store
stop

Nope, I got that taken in to account. Still seems funny.
Welwordion:
Hm I also once tried to fire large amounts of energy in order to kill a bot and it shoot only small amounts no idea why it does that.
Also for the other stuff might have to do something with

There is an inconsitency in the counting of genes for different sysvar
P.S.: its funny when one of the immortals is constantly feeding a virus infected bot making it stay alive
