Overall league thoughts
jknilinux:
d-evo-
The bots in the learningbot league would start with no information whatsoever, and learn and adjust their weights through trial and error. They can have no pre-programmed behaviors, except for curiosity. So, it's more like all their weights would be set to 0.
bacillus-
I had a similar idea for a two-organism league. See my first few posts before we started working on the IBBL.
jknilinux:
Rules 0.8 (closer...):
- No memory shots.
- No venom.
- No viruses.
- 10x Poison costs*
- 10x shell costs*
- Size 12 field.
- Non-toroidal
- Alga minimalis, veggy repop threshold @ 0, veggy population cap @ 50, low energy cap (???), fed 8 nrg per turn, fed per kilobody, day/night cycles enabled. (We'll want the veggy population to remain around 20-25 constantly.)+
- Thick fluid resistance.
- F1 costs, no/low code execution costs (0.5x?), and low (0.1x?) age costs.*
- Only negative tieloc values allowed.
* - These are random values, meant to be placeholders- as moonfisher pointed out, we should try to make an exact balance between the two. Numsgil should know exactly what occurs.
+ - Note that we should either start the bots both on one side and the veggies on the other, to ensure no bot ends up right next to a veggy, or that the field should start with a large amount of veggies, perhaps 100. This is because, when a bot is optimized for living off of a few veggies, if it starts right next to a veggy it will have, like moonfisher said, a huge advantage.

I haven't been keeping up with the news lately...
Any decisions on whats happening with the F2 league?
The Holidays are here, so I thought it might be a good time for an update, possibly even a complete rerun
jknilinux:
I think they're keeping it- there are too many bots in there that had too much of effort put into them to just delete them all, or lump them into F1 where they'll all die. That's the idea, I think.
bacillus:
I'll try getting 2.43.1l, then I'll add some more bots and rerun F1.
