I was running a sim when the strangest bot ive ever seen appeared out of no where. The sim i was running was with semi-zerobots. I used a program to generate them. They started as 256 lines, each line with 40 random numbers between 1 and 1000. Anyways after 13,400 cycles, after the bots had begun to reproduce and went through 2 to 3 generations, this thing appeared. Its apperently tied to 8 other bots and i have no idea how. I thought a bot could only have up to 3 ties. Even if it can have more, what are the chances a 2nd generation zerobot has advanced tie feeding genes that let it track down 8 other bots and tie to them, not using the same tie number twice. Its not its offspring it somehow managed to harden ties to either. Stranger yet, i checked its philogeny and apparently its related to a veggie, even though the veggies don't sexually reproduce (so it couldn't have somehow impregnated a random bot with a .sexrepro gene). It changes colors frequently (probably because frequent mutations), and when its off the screen the ties disapear (maybe their not ties at all, but what are they?)
PS: any way to insert pictures better?
EDIT: Oh this is important to. The dynamic costs aren't working either. Wierd. Occasionly it adusts the costx by several decimal points and then does nothing for a long time even though sensitivity is on max and the population is 3 times larger then what it is set for.
EDIT2: Now its inside of a veggie. It still has all those bots on a leash. Is it even possible to get inside another bot . I thought the bots collided not passed through each other.
