.sexrepro reimplemented in 2.43.1

I just find it midly disturbing that I could insert my own DNA by info-shotting sexrepro and then firing a -8 shot.

Yup. But at least buy her a drink first....
Rape is mostly a human concept. It's certainly a viable reproductive strategy for many males of many species. Biologists would call it a "sneaker male strategy" or sperm competition or some such. Something like 5% of all salmon for example are fertilized by a "sneaker male" who hides and then darts and in and sprays the eggs before the male the female selected can act. There are insects with barbs on their penises (I kid you not) which evolution has shaped as a cone to scoop out and remove the sperm from the male before them.... Much of sexual selection and sexual apparatus adaptations are rooted in such strategies...

Perhaps the explosive shots could be introduced for egg use?

Perhaps I'll add an option for the DNA produced via crossover to replace the "mother's" DNA instead of producing a new bot, perhaps via storing a negative number to .sexrepro. In this way, time shifted reproduction can be accomplish by a "female" bot laying an egg through asexual reproduction. After storing a negative value to .sexrepro, the female's DNA would be coded to do bascially nothing - expending no nrg - until fertilized at which point the egg hatches with the combined DNA from both parents.
Explosive shots are a nice idea, but I don't really see them playing a role in sexual reproduction, unless of course they are filled with Tequilla....
Endy:
Maybe the female simply becomes an egg once properly fertilized by a male. Not quite realistic, but otherwise you could knock other bots out by shooting negative values at them.
Could use explosive shots for firing multiple "sperm" or other types of shots at once. Could be handy for firing at a groups of bots or if you don't have a specific bot you want to shoot.
