Multiple ties
Prsn828:
--- Quote from: Ta-183 ---Haha, I remember flyfruit. There was also an evolved Seasnake that had apparently been infected with flyfruit DNA as well as it's own DNA multiple times, and grew into a lethal fungus that whooped the ass out of even the most advanced man-made seasnake. I miss IM. It doesn't work right in 2.44, but I haven't tried 2.43L recently.
I may develop a fungal Slam-Funk strain though, I have one version that uses teamwork to hunt (but can't tell foe from food yet).
--- End quote ---
IM crashes DB almost immediately when I try to run it in DB 2.43.L
2.44.1 just crashes in general, lol.
I regret never being able to experience it with more than just myself, but oh well...
So I didn't realize there wasn't a limit to the number of ties; does that apply to 2.44.1, or to 2.43.L, or is it for both?

After EricL shut down his sims IM is pretty quiet. Not sure where the teleporter populations are uploaded to, I hope it wasn't something Eric was hosting.
And the Seasnake you mentioned is the one I ment... flyfruit was a simple blind fleeing alge with a strong anti viral defence (Easy to make for an alge since store costs don't compare to 40nrg a cycle), it had a virus version of fruitflies in it as well as 50 other viruses (Or maybe less, think I copy pasted a large bunch a few times to lower the odds that enemy viruses would land as the last gene).
It also just selected the virus to launch randomly from it's gene count, so if it got hit by a new virus it would have a 49/50 (And increasing for each infection) chance to just acumulate the virus and use it aswell.
(The alge only had copy errors enabled, to mutate new offspring and viruses slightly)
Stole a lot of viruses wherever I could find them to make it interesting, and a seasnake got infected by several viruses including fruitflies. Main reason I started working on the thing was because Eric had issued the 9K bots on IM challenge (I don't recall seeing the infected seasnakes pass 7000 though, but I can't be sure if other species where infected aswell, in the end I'm not sure it would realy count anyway, but fruitflies was having a hard time spreading through teleporters by conventional means.)
Anyway the best version I saw pop into my sim whas this one I think :
Also I figured out what triggers the attacks... poison... so bots that don't use poison can actualy beat it, bots that do use poison get slaughtered from what I've seen. I'm guessing it's predators on IM all used poison.
And it's not actualy a real MB since it doesn't set the multi tag, but it seems to stiffen ties and wigles around to end up tieing all the alge in a large blob.
(If running them against bots I recomend lowering the alge count and maybe just inserting a single one of them, then the population should allow a propper framerate.)

I think this one was infected twice by the fruiflies virus, and possibly also by a second smaller virus... all mutated together to create this new behavior. It seemed to do well as an evo bot because of the many offspring, not actualy something I had expected. But personaly found it very interesting that random mutations had no problems improving fruitflies for IM... all the bots to pop into my sim had this behavior on some level, so it was clearly working out better than the original design.
Numsgil:
IM uploads to an FTP subdomain of the darwinbots.com site. So as long as the forums work IM mode will have somewhere to upload to. But yeah, without Eric's constantly running comps IM is pretty pointless.
