I'm pretty new to DarwinBots, and I need some help.
I made a pretty good (in my opinion) bot called LeechBot, but when I load it into DarwinBots, it interprets its genes as one big comment!
I'm running this on Ubuntu Linux, and I've done all the instructions for installing it in Linux.
The weird thing is, pre-packaged bots (like the ones in the tutorial zip I downloaded) work fine.
I've tried everything, but nothing works.
Please help!
P.S. Please make comments on my code to help make it better if you can, please. Thanks! :D

Hola Atutouato,
Your problem is very simple, darwinbots reads dna files with windows line ending style and your file is in the unix style.
So to fix your problem, simply open the file in a program that supports both, i.e. gedit or emacs, and save the file using the windows line ending.
Here is a link with more information http://ubuntugenius.wordpress.com/2010/10/26/creating-windows-text-files-in-ubuntu-how-to-save-as-ms-dos-end-of-line-in-gedit/ (http://ubuntugenius.wordpress.com/2010/10/26/creating-windows-text-files-in-ubuntu-how-to-save-as-ms-dos-end-of-line-in-gedit/)
As for your code, I would suggest you reverse the order of your vision genes, that way it worries about the things in front of it, or use a different vision system, just play around with it.
Also your missing reproduction unless you want it like that.
Here's a file that should have the line ending fix, no dna fixes though.

You really helped!
Thanks for commenting on the code. :D
I'll get right to work!
Thanks!

:unsure: I feel like there is a trend going on, why are people still using 2.45.01 and not 2.45.02 by default?
