Welwordion:
Just a thought but you also could implement an enzyme system that works as following:
To produce an enyzme you need a certain amount of energy lets say 5 and you can store up to 500 enzymes. Every enzyme enables you to convert 10 units per cycle of a certain type of food into energy.
However enzymes itself are related to a certain food type such 1 enzyme destroys
1 enzyme per cycle that is related to the food type they digest(without the gain of energy)

Such with 100 enzymes of type X that digest type Y, 10 Y that digest type Z
and 40 Z that digest X
after one round you only would have: 60X 0Y 30Z

and after 2 more rounds  0X 0Y 30Z

Numsgil:
We could do it that way.  In fat, there are like 100 different ways we could do it, and none of them would be necessarily more or less correct than another.  Which is what the problem is.  How do we decide?

shvarz:
That's easy - you ask me and then do as I say :)

PurpleYouko:
:P

Numsgil:
How about all methods up for consideration must be largely based on something else that's already been done or at least discussed in a scientific paper somewhere?  I can comb through some ALife and A Chemistry archives and see what I come up with.

This way we aren't just randomly comming up with solutions that sound good to us.

I'll go reread that link shvarz gave a few months back...
