Mutation in league mode OPEN
« on: June 23, 2008, 03:41:53 PM »
Or at least I think it is a mutation. At the end of DNA of the selected bot in the attached picture is DNA sequence that no other bot has or I haven't added. It also has void in it, so it may be another bug. It messes up the bot's conspec system and that's how I noticed it.

The bot in sim is a work in progress that I was testing as I coded it.

Based on the screenshot, it also looks like the internal skin (those squiggly lines inside bots) aren't scaling with the size of the bots, which is another bug.

Wow, this one is weird.  I don;t think it's a mutation.   Perhaps there's a bug with calculating dnalen and what you are seeing is garbage past the real genome...

I've found other bots in the sim with the same additional code, so it's not unique to this one bot.  I'll keep investigating...
Many beers....
