a while untill the bot develops genital cancer


--- Quote from: peterb ---Dough females run away, they also eat, and bigger berta's move slower.
Rather I think it would promote offspring of big berta's.

That was the plan


--- Quote from: peterb ---Also I noted it eat's it children, altough thats allowed, I think its a less effective family strategy.

Think of it as testing your childs integrety


--- Quote from: peterb ---A nice bot to see until it suddenly became cancerous creating about 1000 bots or so (maybe a mutation).
--- End quote ---

Ya, a prob I couldnt fix
It is caused by a cancerous gene turning the bots into sperm spraying idiots, forcing the females to repro with children that are also infected with this gene
My solutiojn to this problem is to use a biger area with fewer veges but set the repop threashhold to high so the veges are always spread out and on lucky female cant hog it all and then kill itself with a waste overdoes
A cell may become cancrouse but it should not  spread to far. One simulation I ran , after on cell turned cancerous the pop went to 1500 and then they developed an emmunity to that mutation which was cool. pop settled at about 500 for abot 50000 cycles and then the big berthas took over

thanks
I thought so to

peterb:


I was today testing a sim in wich I used viruses who introduced sexrepro.
The problem only was like here at some moment it became to dominant.
I'm now experimenting with a variant who only is infextive a 1000 cycles
I simply do something like:

cond
*.botage 1000 > 998
start
delgene sexrepro part....
stop

íts actualy a bit more complex then above (its a 1G bot) , but what I mean to say is perhaps having an age limit will stop it blooming cancereos

I actualy did think of that but I also thought that part of the dna would crumble under evo even quicker than the cancer would start
So I made them eat eachother instead. much more effective in that it there is no chance that a male bot can be sucessfull without competing with other males and the weaker  defective males will die out.

I hope that came out wrong...
 Sorry, couldn't help it  
Anyway, the problem is that during sexual reproduction, the DNA changes a little each time. So it's a matter of time until the anti-cancer gene loses its integrity, then the exposed reproduction gene only needs to fail, and voila, a cancer appears. It's something that can't be stopped.

Numsgil:
You can try adding an age cost that doesn't start until the bot reaches some arbitrary old age (like 20K or higher).  That should eliminate the big berthas.
