Off Topic / Mhm, I think I might make up my own language for DB2/DB3.

« on: November 01, 2014, 04:30:26 PM »

Mhm, reverse polish notation im finding quite useful, but BASIC AND ASSEMBLY...those are, ancient! So I've reasonably motivated if I find a list of all of the commands just with a basic explanation somewhere I will completely change the language which we write DNA in.
If I do, it'll probably be very similar to HTML, because that is a well-made language.

Suggestions / New Mutation Type

« on: November 01, 2014, 04:25:34 PM »

Ok, currently genes that are last in the code take priority, so what about a new but (generally) more uncommon mutation which purely moves the position of the gene, it might sound like it wouldn't change mutations much, but A LOT of behaviors rely on the gene order, such as eating and family identification, if eating takes priority, well the family better run away.

Specialization, Metabolism, Digestions and Env Grid / CodeHighlights

« on: October 30, 2014, 02:56:44 PM »

Whilest in the program it'd be nice, like activations to be able to bring up the code and it will highlight (in some way) which exact parts are being used when...
Then I could easily analyse big bots, (and possibly the highlights stay on whilest paused...togglable via a tickbox?)

Newbie / Zerobots?

« on: October 26, 2014, 07:08:02 AM »

Quick question...Surely grabbing animal_mimalis and putting *SO MANY* Zero's on the end would have the same result as a zerobot, but you wouldn't have to wait for it to get base genes...
Going to test that aswell. Im intriguied

Bot Tavern / Teriyaki (Taste like chicken)

« on: October 26, 2014, 06:19:29 AM »

Teriyaki is my first bot that i've actually programmed (I wanted to add ties but the tutorial for that was no-where near as good as the advanced shotbot tutorial).

Hmm. Could you give me a few explanations, It'd be good if we had like a gene dictionary, With search...and catagorisation.

« on: October 25, 2014, 04:08:29 PM »

Ok, I know its another overly successful cancerous bot, I can't even remember which this one originally mutated from, might have been quickdraw? (or bubbles or fruit flies?)
I just found it had 1 seperate and start unusual systematic behavior compared to the rest...Again, it wrapped the veggies, but this was an aggressive strain, (SuperAggroDwarfs??) Anyway, its fun

Dead-End and Solved Suggestion Requests / New League & Wish

« on: October 25, 2014, 07:26:52 AM »

1stly, I wish we could auto-update darwinbots from within the program.
now Why don't we have a new league...
Domination
Litterally, the slightly larger than F1 Size & its covered in a sparse carpet of high energy veggies (2 kinds maybe?) and bots have to eliminated all other bots in as large an area, dominating the veggies.
I mainly suggest this because, my Aggressive Dwarfs like claiming veggies for themselves, they quite litterally wrap themselves around the veggies, and get angry at everyone else...They're like a very spikey blanket

Bot Tavern / Yep, Animal_Microlasis is now a veggie predator MB!

« on: October 25, 2014, 04:51:06 AM »

Yep, the picture shows it destroying a (large) colony of veggies, it mutated from Animal_Mimalis originally, and got so small in some parts of it, that predators couldn't see it, now its colonising
For a moment I thought it was a exploded animal_viral_mimalis colony after they got re-infected with their own virus (gotta fix that) which also originally came in the same sim from animal_mimalis, each now have 5 genes, the microlasis's 5th gene, is also a virus shoot, it just doesnt contain a virus (yet) and it changed its repro-requirements...
Yep, its invading

DNA - General / Mhm! My Zerobot, ITS NOT MUTATING...or dieing :/ or doing...anything

« on: October 25, 2014, 04:44:14 AM »

Im running my sim with a few bots then about 10 of my zerobots (containing 20 0's on seperate lines) but it wont...do ANYTHING 
Ive even tryed encouraging it by throwing it next to veggies, nothing still. 
I want it to do atleast SOMETHING! even if it has to just something.

Darwinbots3 / Tiny Suggestion: Species levelling

« on: October 24, 2014, 06:18:16 AM »

Before you mob me for giving more suggestions I have to give this tiny one from me using the basebots to create new bots in DB2.
A prefix to the naming of a species...so lets give a example in the format {Prefix} SpeciesName
{Fish} Guppy
or
{Jellyfish} Purple
{Jellyfish} Red
Both the jellyfishes are closely related because theyre jellyfishes, but their different breeds of jellyfish I guess would be how to term it, So when you save a new species, you can keep the prefix from the species it originated from, showing theyre closely related.
 & Wow there is so many smileys for here :o

Untagged bots / Cool Mutations to Singula Haloculus & Animal_Mimalis [F1 (I think)]

« on: October 24, 2014, 06:06:34 AM »

I keep running *now stable* sims of singula haloculus, animal_mimalis, alga_mimalis (A lot of veggies!!!!) & Ebola (Its one of the not to cancerous starting MB's
I got a couple of unusual to say the least new species.
1) Animal_Viral_Mimalis ~A Virus shooting Animal Mimalis (I only found it when I noticed 1 in the huge colony had a 5th gene. It intrigued me

2)Animal_Microlasis ~I was looking at the area on the sim I just nicknamed 'The Graveyard' as apart from about 2 ebola and 9 Singula Haloculus it was corpses, then I zoomed in because something caught my eye, It was a Animal_Mimalis colony but it evolved to be extrodinarily tiny, there was only 7 of them in the colony, but unusually it could float right past the Ebola and Singula without attracting attention? Hence the name Microlasis. Now officially dubbed 'Aggresive Dwarfs' as its behavior in later sims...They just claim everywhere 0.0 Ok, theyre not cancerous, and don't kill anything but veggies really, but they still look aggressive to the untrained eye.

3)Singula_Rangercus ~Couldn't really think of a name for this one easily, as you probably know Singula is normally very aggresive and very cancerous, This one was a much more passive Singula, and didn't go into huge colonies. It also moved to near empty space a lot, hence the Ranger in the name.

Darwinbots3 / Bot Communication Channels Idea

« on: October 23, 2014, 09:14:56 AM »

In DB2 bots can join together to be MB's...And they just are a cluster, but what about little chains in bots, with a certain range (determined in DNA...Default 0 range so mutations can add range to it) then via that connection they can send these simple primative signals (unless an override is put into the code)
FoodF - Food Found
FoodN - No Food
Shpe - Shape
FoodTShape - Food Through Shape (If bots can see through shape (so if the shape is transparent))
VegTShape - Like FoodTShape but with veggies
Bad - Danger Found (Virus, same species corpses or a KNOWN PREDATOR (Library inside each bot containing list of species which are either - Mutual, Friendly, Food, Enemy))
Veg - Veg found (Not to be confused with food found as thats a 'food' bot)
PFound - Path Found (Only returned after FoodTShape/VegTShape if the veg/food in question is seen without obstruction.
Then on the end of FoodF, Veg, Bad or FoodTShape would be:
~h - High
~m - Medium
~l - Low

It litterally then either triggers bot to go in that direction, or away from that direction

It'd make multibots cooler, or hotter, depends on their enviroment which they want to be

Bot Tavern / Ahh, Evil singula haloculus

« on: October 23, 2014, 06:49:06 AM »

Im trying to re-encourage my animal mimalis colonies, and I put on the edge of the area where no veggies were some singula haloculus, bear in mind on the other side of the area was over 300 veggies and somehow singula haloculus has gone to 600!
ITS CANCEROUSLY INVADING NOTHINGNESS...
I need a bot which will prioritise killing singula haloculus, & It'd be quite cool bots targetting some bots over others, we'd get a food chain!!!!!!!!
But seriously, Singula Haloculus is invading...I only ran it 1000 cycles and it got to that.
