Veggies that run away, not neccessarily (although I turn veggie evolution off). Conspec, yes, although a non-conspec bot that feeds and reproduces would quickly die out...

I did mannage to have a bot which stopped doing anything a short while after it reproduces, that bot was an annoying and tricky one, although I think it might have been something that I put into my code. It did eventually die out though.

Sounds like the birth tie might have set the number of ties up to one, and then a *.numties 0 = condition shut off. That's what happened with one of the earlier versions of Mythos...

On the note of getting my old PCs to work...

One of them doesn't have any graphics capability, the other one has integrated graphics. Is it possible to use the IGP of one computer to provide graphics capability for another?

You have to have some sort of graphics, even if it's just terminal graphics (eg: command prompt).  If you don't have a VGA port out the back of your computer you don't have a working computer.  Unless you can figure out a way to boot over the network and remote desktop in to it or something.
