<< < (2/4) > >>

Numsgil:
.[memory] resolves to a number.  For instance, .repro means memory location 300.

*.[memory] means what the memory reads in that location.  *.repro is probably going to be 0, until you store something there with eg: 50 .repro store.  Then *.repro would be 50.

EnderCrypt:
aha, so
. is location
*. is value? ok, cool  :D

btw... what happend,.. i mean.. wasent  this game.. very popular a long time ago.. then it died out?, cause, the forum is pretty dead...  :huh: quite sad  :( now when i think about it...

Botsareus:
Sorry for the late reply, I have been busy studying for exams. Like Numsgil said the best thing you can do is restart the program and reload your saved simulation. Memory leaks in visual basic 6 are an epic pain to fix, especially because they occur differently on different computers.


We have lost a couple developers over the years, that's why the forum looks dead. I am guessing the main reason they left was because they where satisfied with there work and decided to move on (Numsgil can correct me if I am wrong on this) We still have other developers that are contributing, but you have to remember that this project is our hobby, therefor we may be busy with other stuff that takes more priority. I personally want to see version 3 in action, so I guess we are all waiting for something so the forum looks dead.


I am planning about 4 more releases for version 2


I also suggest you use darwinbots 2.45.2C, you can find it in the announcements board.

EnderCrypt:
oh, how sad that many left,... hobby, yeah :) pretty good hobby, i always loved programming myself.. even due i kinda suck at it xD, well... yeah, good luck with darwinbots3!, this amazing game is so unique and epic :)

also, is there a portable version, that can be runned whitout administration login?

Numsgil:
Yeah, interest waxes and wanes.  At the moment it's definitely waned.  There's a multiplier effect as more people stick around and post interesting things to the forum, and then that draws others in.  So if you stick around long enough others might gain interest :)

There is some work on a stand alone version that doesn't need admin rights, yeah.  See this topic.  You should be able to take out the version of Darwinbots in that portable zip and put in any other version (read the whole thread, though.  The post I'm thinking about is maybe a dozen posts in).
