Hiya and wiki

<< < (2/5) > >>

Commander Keen:
I've never had any problems with wiki speed, but I'm on dialup, so maybe I'm just rather patient  

Junior:
Wow, thanks for the massive and immediate response.

Well, I got as far as to tie feeding but I can't seem to open the wiki tutorial on MBs. Anyone got another way to get a hold of it?

PS. And why do some bots explode into lots of small attached uh... bits?

Numsgil:
When you can't load a page, wait like 3 minutes and try again.  Make sure you clear your cache (not sure if it matters, but it can't hurt.  It's either shift F5 or ctrl F5).  What seems to be wrong is someone (yahoo maybe?) is doing a huge query that slows the whole thing down.  The query eventually will end, and you should be able to load a page successfully.  It's not related to what page you try to load.

this happens due to mutation in the bots reproductive organ (normally)
when this happens it will remove the limit that causes the bot to reproduce woth enough enrgy meaning that it activates every cycle causing it to reproduce into hundreds of smaller children due to body sharing during reproduction.
this is called a cancorus bot.
normally they tend to die though
also (before someone corrects me) it also happens when a bot dies it lets of a series of shots which dont normally do anything but can include energy (I think)

Junior:
Oh, they do, but it takes some time and slows down the entire simulation until they're dead. Can I do something to stop this from happening or make them die as soon as it does?
