What are conspecs

[havingphun]

I have heard of conspecs but what are they? How do they work? Is there any advantages or disadvantages of them?

Well, conspec is just the system that bots use to tell if the from the "same species". It is the system that you'd use to keep friendly bots from fighting.

ok i thought it was a more advanced thing but even a simple one like this is a conspec:

Code: [Select]

cond
*.myeye *.refeye !=
start...

Yeah, even that is a conspec, I've given you an example in another post of one that I thought of a while ago but never actually wrote.
