I am lost. My head aches. I cannot see the issue through my tears.
My Delta is down. All of her babies explode on cycle 1.
I've read (and experienced) that this is usually a coding problem in the DNA (missing start, stop, etc.). I can't find it.
Maybe momma is shooting the baby? I've no-op'ed, coded around, conditionalized mom's feeding genes to no avail.
I no-op'ed the "birth tie" genes, movement genes, everything I could think of. Sadly, Delta's babies still poof like a bullet in a campfire.
She was working and I've compared old version with this one and can't see where I've #$*^'ed up.
To run a properly controlled sim I need my Alpha-1 (will not mutate), Alpha-2 (allowed to mutate) and selection pressures (food & predator) all well adapted to their present starting niche. I did not like Delta's hunt routine and made copious modifications. Now she's done got broke and I can't see the fix.
Anyone with some time and inclination, please help. She is attached.
Be gentle with her.
Heartbrokenly yours,
-P
