Reallowing delgene weapons

<< < (2/4) > >>

It's impossible to use it constructively.
A virus enters as a random gene.
It's nearly impossible to track it down, since you can't get information about individual genes.
Which is why I say you store the virus's new gene number into a system variable.

Numsgil:
I kind of like viruses being untrackable.  Most bots have to kind of adapt.

I would like to add a command that returns the current gene number being executed, so you can make self-propagating viruses.  (*.thisgene .mkvirus store)

In the future if I can get chromosomes finished, so that sections of code can be turned on/off easily, we may not need a delgene at all.

Anonomous Guest Person:
That'd be better.
That way, a bot could defend itself, but not against all viruses.
But good luck programming it. :P :D

Not an easy trick since the entire DNA is parsed prior to actually changing values in the robot's memory. The idea there was to attempt to make the gene activations as simultaineous as possible.
Nice idea if you can work around this though.

Numsgil:
Work around is the key word here, I think.  Not sure how it'd work.
