What robots are you using?
I can't get any of them to go faster than maxvel
Wouldn't be at all surprised if somehow my DNA code morphs into something really strange. I won't hold my breath though.
I followed a Delta on here journey after inserting her into my sim. She killed a number of Alphas then, while chasing one she seemed to drag. Through the console I learned that, though the Alpha she was chasing was showing .vel 81 Delta was suddenly reading .refvel 34. I noticed this because Delta's eye values in eye4,5,6 had dropped from 43 to 32 in one cycle. Looking at the other Delta in the sim for verification is where I found she was exceeding her (too low) .maxvel. My experience is that Delta should maintain maxvel of 57. Suddenly having a maxvel of 18 (while .vel showed velocity of 19) with less than 600 body and no shell was a bit of a surprise.
I've attached my settings file and my two Bots in a zip folder. I'm trying to determine where a good threshold for a stable population is in a small #2 sim. This is preliminary to a #5 sim for my testbed. I let the Alpha population get up to about 100+ before inserting a couple of Deltas. After about 4-5,000 cycles you should see the issue.
Unless, of course, I have queertrons in my PC which are causing the problem and thus is not the fault of the application. I do keep my PC pretty clean though and have not experienced any issues with my other apps.
