Better code for corpse feeders

(1/2) > >>

NotLegalTender:
We need codes to allow a bot to determine if something is alive or dead, which would allow for better corpse feeders.

.corpse can tell if it is alive or dead.

.corpsefind, combined with eyes, can allow a bot to find corpses to feed off.

Botsareus:
I don't think you can eat corpses. I think all you can do is chill next to one and get its energy.

Botsareus:
Never mind, apparently you can -6 corpses.

Numsgil, is there any way to figure out if robot is a corpse in the current system?

If no, my personal opinion is to disable -6 on corpses. But it will be up to you guys.

I guess the answer is no.

How about I modify '.reftype' to return a -1 when it sees a corpse?

Numsgil:
Gotta give me more than three hours to respond...

Corpses have 0 nrg.  They're meant to be feedable by -6 shots, the idea being that you can create a scavenger bot that just feeds off the corpses of others.
