Yep, bug's gone.
I haven't seen many other SS bots, but basically instead of relying on the timer to sequence events, it uses a cascading response system life Dominis. It has tie breaking, conspec, body control, motion control (it slows down as it approaches food, which is seen as tracking behaviour), lopsided vision (it only uses eyes 5 and 9). That's because the bot turns away when a conspec is sighted, and only turns in one direction. This means you'll see a bunch of bots heading the same direction more often than most other SS bots, as a sort of super-primitive group behaviour.
