Pusher Bots for visual basic Bau first virsion

<--- look here on this picture I always post with
Its a screen shot from a physics development faze of pusher bots

Well in my programs all kinds of loops are allowed (I call them "repeats")
--- Quote ---But what happens if there is an Infinite loop?

AAA! well thats were my own timer tricks come in:
* The simulator executes each robots dna one by one in several bits
* The "bit" is equal to the length of the dna of the fastest robot
* So if a robot is three times as slow as the fastest robot , the simulator will cut its prossesing into 3 bits , so the fastest robot "thinked" 3 times while this slow robot only "thinked" once
* Forget about thouse robots with infinate loops they will be killed [you]before[/you] by faster robots
* [you]Before[/you] means before the "HI VB RAN OUT OF STACK SPACE" error
right now I am stuck on the code of turning equations with parentheses' into type arrays so the vb can compile
an example of an equation like that will be :
--- Quote ---repeat if (a < r) and (c > (d * (e - f)))
--- End quote ---
good luck with that for me :D

A few questions:

What is 'a fisix development faze of pusher bots'? What is pusher bots?

You mean 'equations with parentheses'? That's why DB uses polish notation (atleast, I think that's part of the reason). No need to worry about parentheses.
Botsareus:
Pusher bots is a program I am working on , I only brought it up because of "vtimer" from Nums making virus thing
Numsgil:
Ah, see, you have to preference your posts with these kinds of things. ;) Otherwise we are left :blink:
Have you checked out different AL programs? Avida is supposed to be the proffessional benchmark. I haven't played too much with it (it isn't graphically based, and I'm lazy that way :P).
Botsareus:
The only other AL simulation I found that was worth downloading (I thought) was some kind of msdos boxes moving arround witch cheesy system speacker beepys, yep I think it was avida the first thing that came up on google was that cheesy msdos looking prog.
from there on I stoped bothering;
I think DB is the best currently in the world
