Hard bot

(1/1)

ashton1993:
Taking up the recent trend created by PhiNotPi I decided to create my own challenge, can you create a bot which uses only a single inc and a single dec? Whilst still remaining as efficient as possible? The shortest bot that can meet the criteria below wins  :D

* Increase total energy of species over a time-frame of 50,000 cycles.

Panda:
One inc and one dec?

EDIT: And does it have to reproduce?

EDIT: 2000 cycles a bit too little, don't you think... the max vel of a bot is very low with only up.

Good point, I'm changing it too 50,000

Panda:
Yaya! That's better:


--- Code: ---start
.shoot *.myeye *.refeye sub sgn abs *.eye5 20 sub sgn 1 add sgn mult mult dec
.up  inc
--- End code ---

PhiNotPi:
Is the bot allowed to become overly specialized?  The bot on the Shortest Fully Functional Bot challenge became so specialized that it could only eat non-moving veggies with 7 eyes, and I don't know if that sort of thing would be allowed here.
