Solved Bugs / Problem with conspec recognition for robots with ties

« on: November 30, 2013, 09:10:16 AM »

It still doesn't work. Just load this sim and bring some tieplants close to a Nitrosobactus and you will see no slime is produced.

Bug reports / Waste from nothing

« on: September 29, 2013, 07:31:15 PM »

After a decaying body had been shooting waste shots until it disappeared, waste continued to build up seemingly from nothing in the brown bots, which I have designed to use waste.

Suggestions / Skin suggestion.

« on: September 17, 2013, 08:23:46 AM »

The way skins are chosen now based on dna is cool, but at the same time I miss being able to make my own. What about having both?

Maybe having a dialog where you just type in number of lines, 1 to 3, and their angles.

Suggestions / Chloroplast converting waste to body

« on: September 09, 2013, 07:04:22 AM »

How about letting chloroplast convert waste to body instead? That would simulate the fact that plant life need more than just sunlight to grow, like minerals and such. When body reaches 32000 they can't convert any more waste and it will start to build up instead, which would simulate over-fertilizing like some plants are sensitive too, and just assume it's like this for algae too. You get an algae bloom with lot of waste in the water, but there is a limit how much they can use of it.

..and a .fdwaste sysvar to convert waste directly to energy like some primitive bacteria.

..and change the "Don't decay nrg shots" feature to "Keep nrg & waste shots" or something like that.

Some bots gain chloroplasts when they shouldn't. No .mkchlr command in the dna.

There is a mentioning on the wiki that you can do that but no example of how you type it.
