Ok, Ericl, I need more custom defs for this new bot of sudden crash. Its the easiest way for my e to stay organized, and I've already defined hundreds of vars by hand. Would be nice if hte limit were increased to all free sysvars.

I bumped it to 1000 in 2.43.1k.  Now you can define a private var for every memory location if you like.

Note that only the first 50 are saved in sim files currently.  The structure of the sim files is delicate and adding the logic to save and load these is more than I have time to test this morning.  This should only impact human readability of re-loaded bot DNA in the DNA window.  Re-loaded bots with more than 50 private vars should still work just fine.
Many beers....

the problem I'm having is with my latest slim evo dna. it causes the simulation to crash. Is it a problem with my use of memloc and memval?

The program is never supposed to crash no matter what you do, so definitely post a sim that crashes.

When the program crashes it should save to error.sim.  If it's not even doing that, post a sim that Eric can run that will eventually crash.  If it won't even let you do that, then attach the bot and the settings you're using to a post either here or (even better) in a new topic in the bugs and fixes forum.

SLim evo 4 does not crash in 2.43.1k.  Are you talking about a new crash in that drop?

No, it runs fine now that I've made the upgrade.
