Hi, just discovered this site, sim looks really nice, something similar to DB II

What do You think?

Thank You, but I don't have administrator privilegies and cannot obtain them (work computer, bah...) Any way to bypass it?

After install, when starting new sim, an error occured stating "tabctl32.ocx or one of it's components is not properly registered: file not found"
I'm running windows xp SP 3

How can we stimulate DNA shortening trought evolution? I found settings "DNA upkeep cost". What is that mean?

OK, my sim is up online also, will leave it overnight...
There is only one alga that receives 10000 NRG/cycle so bots must defend it, it's like an oasis in desert...
At the moment there is only animal minimalis...
Oh and F1 costs and 1/32 mutations

Nobody? It looks great, evolution of neural networks, acts as screensaver and saves last population. I am currently runing it, wonder if it can produce some interesting behaviour, like darwinbots.

too bad that original page doesn't offer program executable, it would be nice if program exist as screensaver

CAN PROGRAM BE SET TO RUN AS SCREENSAVER AND WHEN SHUTS DOWN SAVES EVERYTHING ON HARD DRIVE AND THEN STARTS AGAIN FROM RECORDED POSITIONS?

Suggestions / recording simulation

« on: September 26, 2010, 04:32:43 PM »

Can program be programed to record, for example, every 10th cycle of simulation as photo, or something like that? Idea is to group those photos later in continous movie so we can see patterns, behavior, etc.. more easily. It's difficult to observe on 0,1 cycle/sec

Simulation Emporium / New zerobot simulation

OK, contest is over, zerobots with 900 zeroes started shooting and reproducing and devastated all other species. So, I guess more zeroes or random numbers doesn't always  guarantee survival. Oh, btw, zerobots with 30 zeroes never developed even reproduction.

Are you judging "first" based on real world time or number of cycles?  3600 bps will make any sim chug.

real world time, but these zerobots, and zerobots with 3600 zeroes were introduced into the sim in the same time so I guess that it's the same.

Now about those costs.... anyone?

Is this good time to introduce costs? There is over 400 zerobots with 900 zeroes in sim, other species are stuck below 10. Sim is draging like a dead cow by now, 1,6 cycles per sec.

Wow. At this point, I'd be getting 10 seconds per frame  

It's a new laptop, dual core   , now there are 500 bots, same speed
