MB architecture: How do we get amoeba/fungus moving?

<< < (4/5) > >>

Endy:
You can use *.totalbots w/timer for setting the aim for an entire MB at once. They don't hunt very well but seeing a whole species simultaneously change directions is pretty impressive.

bacillus:
Strange, a timer-based conspec never worked because of every reading being identical...

Endy:
It starts at a random number between -32000 and 32000, different for each bot the first cycle. I think Eric changed it at some point. Still don't think it'd make a good conspec loc, be too easy to copy and automatically pass on to decendents.

Peter:
A good conspec is pretty easy made. The simplest could be storing a changing sysvar into an *out sysvar.

Just check *.refnrg with *.in1. And you have an strong conspec system.
Trying to fool a bad conspec-system by copying it is a pretty low tactic anyway.

Nice idea endy. *.totalbots is more powerful then you could see inmidiate. I gues a total-wide same sysvar like that could be used for multiple things, still thinking what that could be.

d-EVO:
This is a gene I used on one of my test amoebas, think it worked well. It als0 traveled in a way to cover most of the map.
I will download the bot to if you want to see how it works
