SG bot beats Din

<< < (3/3)

Light:

--- Quote ---I decided to halt looking into using delgene to get rid of viruses. Let's just say a simple command of delgene dec was enough cause Din to wipe itself out. I think the viruses will have to be defended against instead of fought directly. :(

I am curious does that mean that you dont think it is possible to detect and delete viruses?

I have just started looking at it and have a few ideas but still far off a working system

Endy:
It is possible but it is equally possible for the virus to subvert your checker and cause the bot to delete it's own genes. I made a sort-of gene roll call that activated each gene in turn causing it to check it was in the correct location. If it sensed it was not it then deleted the viral gene before it.

Unfortunatly the method used to check (combination of *.thisgene, Signaling memval, and OR) was just as susceptable to viruses so it was impossible to be sure the correct gene was deleted. The start and end genes are the only two locations that can be 100% positive when they have a v-gene before/after them.
