Commander Keen:
Or you could just save the starting settings and the random seed, and provided the two DB versions were equal they could calculate an exact replica of the sim...

Numsgil:
But that still requires you to share your settings file, have the other guy, load up DB, load up your settings, and run the program.  I'm thinking more something that would let us upload videos to the forum and have them play embedded in the post.

Moonfisher:
Heh if I have a sim of 10000000 cycles that I wan't to show it would be nice if you could capture the screen every 100 cycles so I could view it with accelerated speed and see why my sim whiped, or what generaly happened.
Also if I run guardian against anything, several people won't even be able to see it... not till they buy a new computer...
Also the larger SS bots are very slow, end generaly most of the stuff you want to show poeple very often involve a larger sim with a lot of bots....
So instead of having people load all the settings and bots, start a sim, let it run for 2 weeks while recording with fraps, then increase the speed of their recording and then view what you where talking about.... poeple would only need to load one file and run it to see what you want them to see.
If you check out the DB art forum you'll notice that most of the sims people have recorded in there are not something you can just load up and run for yourself... not unless you're VERY patient

bacillus:
I made an interesting map setting for this bot...
Two species have a tug of war over one veggie - repop treshold 0, veggies per repop event 1, max veggies 1, nrg per cycle per veggie 20000. This emulates a "capture the flag" arena.
