Unfortunatly there's no readback that currently does that by itself. It might be possible to make an average pain/pleas finder.

Would be relativly accurate, giving the amount of nrg gained divided by number of cycles.
It'd be really difficult to have the bots figure out what a specific gene does(I wish we could viruses would be history :) ). I'm not sure how you'd ever be able to classify them. I'd been working on an idea to slow changes to genes based on incorporating thisgene, genes, and dnalen into them.

Possibly this could be used to tell which gene does what to some degree, but it'd be extremly dicey (not to mention probably deadly for evo sims).
I think the sheer genome size could be a problem eventually also. Probably would need some sort of delgene method to ensure size is kept relativly small. When we get sexrepro working good it might be an idea to try this again.
You may have to accept the cancer gene as an inevitability.
Yeah, that's what I was afraid of. On the plus side if you ever want to model "sexually" transmitted disseases, you have a really good example handy. B)
I think I forgot to post the actual bot... I'll do it later today. :redface:
