Shortest Fully Functional Bot

Drognan:
How can we stimulate DNA shortening trought evolution? I found settings "DNA upkeep cost". What is that mean?

cost per turn per bp. Increase this and likelihood of deletions and shorter bots will evolve. This is not hard
Evolving a shorter "fully functional" bot is harder. If the cost of loosing a function is smaller than the gain of a shorter genome energy is gained and the functions will be lost. Evolution is lazy..

Okies, I used Panda's revision with PhiNotPi's adjustments, changed 1 add to ++ and also removed the line *.refveldx .dx store because veggie's won't be moving too from side to side much I don't think - 12bp now  :blink:

Panda:
Oh... I really doubt that this could get any shorter then.

ashton1993:
well the reproduction gene uses almost HALF the dna... maybe there's a way to shorten that part or may haps duplicate another value and plug it in?
