When I use the underline button it inserts (Ignote the \'s) : \[\you\]
Then when submitting the post it changes the you to "you".
(SECOND EDIT : I give up... I'm trying to write a letter that sounds like you, and it's the first letter in the word "up". This is not a clever feature IMHO, especialy not when the BB code requires a particular letter which is translated and controll characters are ignored. Third edit : Atleast they had the sence not to translate the number 2)
For what the bot is concerned, it's hard to tell whats wrong from one gene, but if the bot is dieing it's out of energy (Or possibly has no genes left or too much waste, but I doubt that's the problem).
So if it's dieing fast it's because you're spending a whole lot of energy. If you have no costs on, it would probably be something like a virus spending too much energy on a virus shot (vshoot), or boosting a shot too much pushing a high value into shootval (Positive or negative).
If you have costs on then you should also watch what you spend on shell/poison/venom/slime/body. You can have more than 500 shell, think up to 32K but not sure... but it costs and decreases your speed. 30K shell will leave you completely immobile, but I think you can get there if actualy have enough energy to make that much shell...
