The above post clearly explains how my ideas ARE  grounded in  reality.

Numsgil:
Let me rephrase.  Your ideas (minus robot placement, which is another issue all together) are not grounded in communal reality.

As is evident in such works as Charlotte Perkins Gilman's "The Yellow Wallpaper" (short story) and Roman Polanski's "The Tenant" (movie), and many others, reality is impossible to discern by yourself.  Humans are built such that what we percieve as reality is only identified as such by group agreeance.

For instance, when I was little I believed there were monsters under the bed.  I persisted in this belief for quite a long time.  I no loner believe there are monsters under my bed, because if there were, they would require a population to be self sustaining, and said population would have had to feed on other children, and so I would have heard stories about half eaten little kids and my parents would have put some heavy boards or something to stop the under-the-bed monsters from getting me having heard such stories themselves.

Basically, I know there are no monsters because my precursors, (ie: parents, etc.) do not acknowledge that they exist.  My perception of reality is strongly influenced on what others agree is reality.

However, this is not always a good thing.  For instance, this exact same communal reality is responsible for the witch hunts in Salem.  However, this communal reality is right far more often that it is wrong, and most people come to trust it and rely on it, including myself and probably most others on this board.

Bots, your ideas and problems and entirely from your own mind, without any outside precursors.  They do not come from textbooks or google/wikipedia research.  Thus your ideas are not grounded in communal reality, and so may be either ground breaking and revolutionary or figments of your imagination like my monsters under the bed.

Either way, Darwinbots is a communal project, and so should reflect communal reality, and thus have the maximum appeal to all users.  I bear no ill will if you can modify the program to suit yourself, just don't expect us all to clamber to add your ideas.

Botsareus:
Thx dude.

So I gess I have to wait for you to see for yourselfs.
I will check back in a couple of years to see if all I have been telling about have been proven.

Meanwhile try the following experiment:

Save first bot with reguler save best robot (excluding the time it is exsibiting firecracker behaviure) several times, (after 8000 cycles each)

Now do the same with the robot using my autosave method. You will see that my method produces a better robot.

If that is not suffisient proof , I dont know what is.

Botsareus:
several being 4 to 10...

shvarz:
Don't you just hate people who stand in the doorway, throw insults at you, threaten to leave and never come back, yet an hour later they are still there...

It makes me wonder...  what motivates them?  what keeps them going?  why are they doing it to us?
