My weird A_Praxidikae
Unc:
Hello all. My "first" bot, but I have been tinkering with it for quite a while now. I was wondering which league to enter it in, it seems to do same the in either one. Quite well until either TheOne or Excalibur shows up, basically. :D I've got it listed in the F2 forum for now. A_Praxidikae_Mk2
Some of the code is cluttered, as I have been changing things left and right, heh. The basic idea is to eat and breed for the first few hundred cycles, then go into "tough" mode, building body and conserving energy, while hitting harder.
It's kinda fun to watch. Put it up against DIN. They both build up to about 50, then A_Prax gets outnumbered FAST, about 1 to 3 or 4 usually, and eventually A_Praxidikae pulls back.
Edit: The new and much improved A_Praxidikae_Mk2
Numsgil:
Some of the genes are, well, confusing. Did you pull random genes from disparate bots? Reminds me of Ghen's writing in Myst (and if that reference just passed over your head, you suck ;) )
Unc:
Well, let's just say that some of the genes were attempted to be used, did not work, and some did not get properly removed. I tried to clean it up a little, and, well, it stopped working. So I left well enough alone. :P

I am currently running A_Praxidikae in the F2 league (using V2.36.7)
A_Prax got off to a good enough start, despatching C Discernens in short order.
Now after 35,000 cycles he has just won the first round against Jez's pesky little poison bot, Circumversor Cantharisa.
A_Prax got a good start but Cantharisa came up with a really weird defence system. Due to the age of the DNA (V2.35 or therabouts) she has no waste removal gene. This rapidly resulted in her getting stuck to the spot via Alzheimer's. At this point she built up a great big flotilla of rotating, fixed, poisonous robots that blast the crap out of anyone coming close.
It worked pretty well and almost won her the first round. At one point she led by 298 to 21. Eventually she just starved to death and A_Prax took the first round.
The second round ended quickly with A_Prax's second win. The third is kind of equal so far. I am pretty confident that A_Prax is going to take the contest though.
I will let you know how far he gets before DB crashes :rolleyes:
Unc:
lol.
I can't figure it out. Prax won't shoot at either Cantharis or Cantharissa.
:(
