hi i just downloaded darwinbots and started to do the firsts tutorials of the wiki, in the tutorial of the very first simulation, he says to put a bot called "animal minimalis" and he says that the bot is supposed to run on the screen looking for food, the problem with me is that he just stay there in the exact place were he spawned, he don'teven move his eye!! i don't know what to do, i'm pretty sure i copied and pasted all the DNA document i found on the wiki.
hope to receive answers soon and thanks to everyone who will be so kind to help me

I thought there was a animal minimalis included with the DB2 download, you could try that one.
Animal minimalis only spins around till it finds food. When it finds food it will go after it. If you start a sim with only animal minimalis , you'll only have bots that sit on the same place spinning around.

i put veggies too but it goes on staying in the same place
-
Does anything happen if you move a veggie close to a animal minimalis?
-
no, it stays there without doing anything, if a veggie hit an animal minimalis it bounce (i dont know if it is the right verb, i'm not english) away
-
Could you upload a sim file, so we can look if it works correctly for us?
I'm rather clueless on what's going wrong. :wacko:
-
Which version are you trying to run?
-
(I think I may know what the problem is)
Can you double click on "animal minimalis" and click "Dna ->"
What do you see in the text-box that shows up?

I have completely uninstalled all the .ocx components DarwinBots uses on my Vista machine and then installed a fresh copy of DB2 and ran version 2.45.03Beta. I have tested "Animal_Minimalis" and it works great. Like my earlier post, I have a hunch that you did not copy the file correctly. Attached here is a working copy of "Animal_Minimalis", Enjoy.
