It is alive!

Attached here is my favorite preset file:

   W,A,S,D to move Q to reproduce, E to shoot, C to allow drift

It is really cool to observe a zerobot learn to keep up with the human element, we got destributed inverse Robocop going on.

edit: Shift to multiselect robots, if a selected robot reproduces you get control of that robot as well.

I love cool and kind of useless features like that. Are there custom macros that a user can set? They would be so useful for some things, especially debugging.

I agree, Panda. It's kind of cool to interact with the environment as a bot instead of just dragging them around and hoping one bot will see the other and stuff like that. I wonder if it could be possible to make a bot that learns through mimicry; that is, you take control of it, do some stuff, and it attempts to repeat this.
