I think it would be fun to have a grand prix mode. All bots are entered in the arena and the top 10 survivors get points, repeat for 20 rounds, then show the final scores. It'll be messy, but it would allow for a large number of entrants without having the number of matches grow geometrically.

"Spiderman"?

I had a bot by that name running more than a week ago. There seems to be bots lagging somewhere.

I quickly gave up on Spiderman, because the strategy of shooting tie-making offspring at enemies didn't work very well.

Edit: I've run the 17B client here on wine, but it doesn't seem to connect. I've been using client.py to send bots to the 79 port instead.

(oh, that's right, maca was too busy attempting to troll me with his ivy knowing that a massive chloroplast virus infection was on its way)

Haven't been on IM for the last five days or so. Too busy watching Rust (lang) videos.

I have 17,160 .stats files, is that enough? 

I need to upload the zip somewhere else, it's a bit over the forum limit.

100 cycles per point, interrupted by another '6' crash.

It's hard to identify some bots at the bottom.

Aw, something went haywire and had to restart the sim.

250 cycles per point:

Aw, an amusing cartwheeling mutation of Carnivore Ivy had finally managed to coexist with Locust for a short while, Catapiller walked in and killed both the Locusts and the cartwheel ivy, then went extinct, and now my sim is back to being a kind of boring Ivy garden with half a dozen sad bots hanging around.

I shouldn't have removed the population caps...

PS. By the time I posted the screenshot, the size of the blob had doubled. I'm tunning it down now.

There's a fun dynamic going on though. Tipically Alga comes in, hoardes all the choloplasts and makes Ivy go extinct due to being horribly inefficient, Multiply feasts on Alga and pushes the dynamic costs, Ivy gets repopulated and kills Multiply, Locust (which can feed on Ivy) comes in and takes over, dynamic costs kill Locust, repeat.

I was toying with CIvy's source during these stats, so they aren't clean, but attaching them anyway.

I'm going to let it run untouched now and gather a new set.

Somewhat amusing graph. Carnivore Ivy is the sim's veggie -- dynamic costs count all bots.
