Permanent Sims

Okay, one major flaw in IM at the moment is that there are rarely other sims on, and when you shut your sim, all progress on IM mode is wasted.

Now, since I moved into my uni flat, I don't have to pay electricity and internet is unlimited, I was thinking about setting up a sim running 24/7. I wont be setting it up just yet, but there'll be two big sims both with:
F1 costs
200 veg limit
2 nrg/cycle
sun up/down every 1000 cycles
1x mutation rate

I'm not going to seed them with anything, just let what comes in flourish. Depending on monies, I might add another few sims later on.

Any suggestions/thoughts?  :happy:

I've been meaning to do the same thing. Then I keep forgetting. I will get some online. Later...  :dry:

Drognan:
CAN PROGRAM BE SET TO RUN AS SCREENSAVER AND WHEN SHUTS DOWN SAVES EVERYTHING ON HARD DRIVE AND THEN STARTS AGAIN FROM RECORDED POSITIONS?

Numsgil:
It's not set up to work like that at the moment.  But you can just run it all the time and set it's priority to low/idle through task manager.  I did that for a few months on a zerobot sim I had.  It's kind of a pain in the ass when you want to restart but otherwise no issues.

Got the box set up, just need to grab another NIC cos my uni connection apparently isn't allowed more than one PC. Should be running by tonight in theory :)
