Randombot evolution sim
Beanspoon:
Good idea - I'll try that when I have a mo. Are you sure you want all this data though? Currently I have 500 vegs which appear to be thriving but are pretty much all different...
Botsareus:
I don't need all of the data, maybe 20 robots or so... maybe by luck I'll get a couple that are doing well... in any case I want to see how they look like even if they are the crappier type
Beanspoon:
Sure. Would you like a copy of my settings file as well? They have evolved to survive under those conditions...
Botsareus:
might as well, thx
Beanspoon:
Hi- I know I haven't posted anything here in a while. The reason is that I realised that my mutation rates were set far too high, and there was no way I could go through all the bots and change their rates one by one. As such, I restarted the sim with rates of a 10th of that which I was using before.
The sim has been running for over three months with no development. Today however, bots with a sustainable reproduction cycle evolved. Once I have sorted through them, further slowing their mutation rates (there was still an alarming amount of mutation happening), I will post the sim here. My next goal is to slowly reduce the energy the bots receive for photosynthesis from a frankly cushy 8 per kBP down to 1.
