DB completely froze for me when I double-clicked on a bot. Have to re-start.

Edit: This happens everytime I double-click on a bot. I'll send you a bug report later. Now I'll just avoid double-clicking cause I want to run in IM for awhile.

So you are running with video on, and it froze when trying to interact with UI? That never happened to me before. Does it happen all the time?

Sorry, what I mean is, does it happen under 'normal' conditions and any OS?

Lionfish is choking my sim with waste shots, slowing it down.

My fault.  :P

I was testing the latest wine and DB exe and found out that IM does indeed work on Linux (I had an issue with bots saved on Linux crashing DB, as it expected Windows mode .txts (i.e. \r\n line breaks), and before I gave it a second thought a few Lionfish12 with mutations off had been teleported.

Just out of interest, does Einstein have a foothold in anyone else's sims? The "mutate" version released (I think) by Botareus has taken over mine, and nothing seems to make a dent in their population. They seem to be well suited to situations where food is scarce. I am astonished at how well Einstein has stood up to mutation, given that it's a conditionless bot.

Einstein was a small player in my sim(maybe 20/30 bots), but when he found a big alge colony he became a big player. 300 bots vs. and exiting 600 caterpillar bots.

While I was typing this, the whole sim emptied, and some lionfish appeared.

edit: as in the older sim vanished and replaced with lionfish. Could that be an issue with linux vs. windows linebreaks?

edit2: and all bots in the sim have been dumper in the /out folder.  :blink:

This is not my first rodeo with this thing Billy. Shadowgod tried the same stunt on me a while ago. He never forgave me.

On a side note, in theory, there is still variation on each auto restart, so after a while, I am expecting unique robots dominating IM.

15 unique robots to be exact. There are people desperately trying to release lion with viruses.

Ugh, the non-mutations LF kept coming back even though I flushed my sim earlier.

My sim had a spiral shape and about 30 Einstein had a foothold on one end of it. Then the algae mutated into tiny clumps and all other bots started to die, so I removed the spiral shape and turned toroidal on.

There's currently a bunch of Catapillers that have been surviving since the sim start, a couple mutate and Lionfish that refuse to die, and sporadic Einsteins and Multiply4 still coming from the teleporter.

Put any initial robot you want in it. Make it as crazy as possible.

Peter, all the bots have been dumper? Sounds like an array got screwed up. Two reasons: A. CPU messed up. B. Hacko
