What's happening in IM?

<< < (2/5) > >>

Ammeh:
I keep trying to make bots with new and interesting behaviour, but they always just get beaten by the simple hunt-shoot-kill bots. :/

Numsgil:
A large part of that is arena size I think.  Try using a really big arena with only like 100 veggies allowed at a time.  When food isn't plentiful stupid strategies won't work very well.

Houshalter:
I think I might try something like that. I'll increase the sim size by one every day. Oh, is anyone having trouble with IM working? I can't seem to get any bots to go out or come in.

bacillus:
That could prove to be dangerous-there's usually a threshold of size when the bots are doing well before it, and then you make a tiny change and they all suddenly die. Point being, if you are going to put them under pressure, either save a lot or produce a multisim environment.

Houshalter:
I just mean by only one notch a day, not all at once. I would at least give a million cycles for them to adapt before going to the next level. I've already done this on my sim on my first computer. The costx has fallen dramatically along with the population, but thats good for natural selection to operate on. If it gets below half of what its supposed to be I have it set to cancel all costs untill it brings the population back up.
