I like darwinbots, but I would like to know if there are good alternatives do DB outthere...

Anyone is doing different stuff??

Hi!

Yesterday I did a post about the captcha problem but my post was deleted I think?

Why?

Thanks :)

Newbie / Trying to understand something about DNA reading and actions
« on: November 19, 2014, 11:49:12 AM »
I've been reading the wiki manual about stacking and also the order of actions. According to the order of actions link (http://wiki.darwinbots.com/w/Order_of_actions) the bot will rotate first only then it will move and only then will reproduce. Now lets imagine a simple bot like this [i will not use functions, only plain english to explain my point):
BOT 1:
Gene1:
Rotate the bot 90?

Gene2:
Move 10 steps

Gene3:
Reproduce a bot.

Now imagine the BOT2:
Gene 1:
Move 10 steps
G2:
Reproduce a bot
G3:
Rotate 90?

My question: how to they react in the simulation? Will they react exactly in the same way? I mean, will they rotate, move and only then reproduce? If thats the case, that means that the order of Genes is not important?

Thanks

Sorry if I wasnt clear, but my english is not very good.

Thanks for your advices and tips ;)

Specially the one about the * symbol. Its something so simple yet so important.

I will try right now some of your ideas.

Newbie / Question about simulation starting questions
« on: November 17, 2014, 01:12:52 PM »
Hi everybody!

I have some questions about the starting settings on simulations.

1) If I want to test how movement functions work, what are the best settings (fluid vs solid for example; brownian movement, etc)? For example, as a newbie trying to grasp the basic concepts, I would like to see how acceleration works: I have a superbasic bot with just one gene (cond/start 10 *.up store/stop/ end) to see if the bot will just accelerate 'til the max speed and to test how fast is such acceleration in the in game world. My problem is that the bots will just wander OR they will not move at all (like when I use metal or when I use animal brownian movement).

2) Could you give a brief explanation about some physics settings, like surface, brownian movement, movement efficiency and others that are relevant?

Thanks for help!
