Can i have more conditions inside of my gene after the cond statement?

yes. I'm not quite sure if they are ANDded with the pre cond statements though. I've always assumed they are, but I have the vague recollection someone said they're not. If you find out let me know.

Yes, just use the boolean operators. For example:

cond
*.eye5 0 >
*.refpoison 0 =
start

becomes

start
*.eye5 0 >
*.refpoison 0 =
and

you can also use "OR's" instead of creating new genes so:

cond
*.eye5 0 =
start

cond
*.myeye *.refeye =
start

becomes:

start
*.eye5 0 =
*.myeye *.refeye =
or


As I understand it, it places a true or a false on top of the boolean stack based on the value that the condition command returned (=, <, >, !=, etc.) I'm not sure, but I think "start's" without a condition also return true, or maybe their just skipped if the condition is false. Whatever the case, stores and incs/decs are not activated when theres a false ontop of the stack. I think the default value is true by the way. I hope that makes sense, if you want more detail check the wiki. By the way, theres also XOR and NOT.

ok, but how would I condense
cond
*.eye5 0 >
start
-1 .shoot store
stop
using logic iside of start

I made an Inline Conditions Tutorial (http://www.darwinbots.com/WikiManual/index.php/Inline_Conditions_Tutorial) a while ago that may be helpful to you.
