Bots and Simulations > DNA - General
Most effective use of poison?
Ta-183:
They both affect any bot they hit. Species themselves are next to impossible to define, the only real way of telling them apart is by their conspec.
Moonfisher:
Fruitflies doesn't use viruses, and has no defences since a dead fruitfly isn't of any importance to their overall strategy. It just uses ties and racial memory, thats about it.
But the IM version Flyfruit (An alge) used fruitflies as a big virus along with some other random collected. And this one just zeroed out any sysvars that could be used in a harmfull way in the last gene. This way the odds favored new viruses landing among the 50 other viruses, wich means the alge would start spreading them by itself without being affected. (A virus lanfing in the last position would be able to affect/kill the alge)
Houshalter:
To quote the wiki:
--- Quote ---Venom does not affect bots of the same species as you.
--- End quote ---
That means that venom is useless against bots of the same species, which means it will be the first thing to go in an evo sim since most the time bots only fight themselves. Poison on the other hand is usefull against everyone.
Houshalter:
Sorry to post twice in a row . But I had an idea. What if you target the other bots .ploc, then you are safe to shoot them, at the same time you can rotate to other targets to stop them from running away or fighting back. Out of curiousity, how long does poison have an effect on the bot?
Ammeh:
I thought of an evil one .memloc
It often only gets set once, and if any bot uses it for conspec recognition, it would completely screw it up, more often than not making it attack it's own species indiscriminately.
