Should robots in leagues be disalowed from fixing in place?

(1/3) > >>

Botsareus:
I currently added an option to ignore requests from a robot to fix itself. However, in any different simulation (specifically, I am interested in leagues) the default option for a robot is to do whatever it wants. To counter that I was considering adding a kill rule if a robot fixes itself in place. However, such rule will slow the already slow simulation significantly enough that I gave up on it.

Another idea is to not allow robots during leagues to fix themselves. I personally like this method, but will leave the public to make a decision.

Shadowgod2:
f1 should remain the same because it's a rules free league.

Botsareus:
I was specifically interested in F1 XD. I got a really annoying lecher bot that tends to fix itself in place because it does not know any better. Shadowgod, you have to understand that the robot can still 'mutate' a fix command even though fixing is disabled. There is a good chance your robot will behave differently in a simulation where such a setting is enabled. Just a warning, that is all. Oh well, on to the next...

Shadowgod2:
... maybe an f1 fixing and an f1 nonfixing? some bots have fixing as part of their strategy. i also realized at least 1 multibot does fixing to move.

Peter:
There's a bot in the F1 league using fixing?
