Welcome To Darwinbots > Newbie
Introducing the God of Lemurs!!

G'day.
I happened upon Darwinbots while searching out info on multi-agent complex system simulations. I just started messing around with it, but am having quite a good time. I have yet to create a viable bot, and have no idea what the hell I'm doing.
I used to have ant farms as a kid, and would sit and watch for hours. When computers came my way, I go into simulations. At some point in my life I have owned just about every SIM game there has ever been. I still play SIMAnt and SIMLife on occasion.
You all deserve cookies.

If you'd like help making a viable bot, check PY's tutorials on the FTP. It's called Darwintutorial1+2. That's how I figured it out when I got started 2-3 months ago. It's very complete.
Welcome aboard! BTW, what, may I ask, is a "multi-agent complex system simulations" and how did you get to DB from that?
Talk about out of left field. :lol:
Good to see another SIM fan. I still play SimEarth on my computer from time to time. If I could combine DB and SimEarth, I would officially be in Heaven.

Ooooh, thank you. I shall. I have some pretty big bot-building aspirations. But goal #1 is to get one to actually live. (So far I've just been messing around with existing bots).

Well, a complex system is a mathmatical term for a system that invovlves a number of elements arranged in such a way that on any scale observed, their is similiar arrangement. It includes ideas from choas theory and some of the more common applications are in the study of evolution and neural networking. An agent, is any entity involved in the system, that is itself, a complex system. And I've been doing research into finding groovy software to create simulations for various complex systems, so that said systems can be analyzed.
While meandering through some science software listing (On google directories, I think), I saw a link to DarwinBots and I screamed, "JOY!"
And here I am! :D

If you'd like a good and simple bot to start messing with, I'd recommend my own creation Animal Minamilist. This tiny tiny bot manages to not only survive but do so quite well.

Kind of a fractal thing then, right? What are you involved in? I'm a senior math major at school, so I sort of know where you're coming from.

Hmm, what would be you nickname? Thelem? Lemur?
