For the last time I will thank you for your excellent and generous help.

I'm having trouble getting my plants to reproduce. I built a vegetable that will run away slowly:

' Gene 4 Reproduce

end
--- End code ---

But often bots with 32000 will just sit there and not reproduce. What can I do to fix this?

Numsgil:
Can you tell if there's anything in front of the veggy?  That's the most common cause of a bot not being able to reproduce.

 FYI You have two reproduce genes, the first needs 6000 nrg but the second only needs 1000, so the first will not turn on.
The first turns the bot to make sure it has room.

I agree with Nums, there probably are bots in the way.

You could have it turn it the gene you want to use. Most likely the second repro gene.

Edit: Your moss is very interesting to watch, it forms little clumps that run away/follow at a distance predators.

I seemed to have fixed my earlier problem - I had to deactive the veggy repopulation effect. I'm now working on:

1. Telling the Taxxons not to eat their parents or children.
2. Introducing sexual reproduction.
3. Maximizing adaptation.

Yeah, I just stole a couple methods and forgot to take one out.

Thanks :). I think it makes the process a good bit more interesting.
