Mutations / BA_Chase_E2

« on: August 03, 2008, 07:22:21 PM »

The basis was a variant of the BlackAnt from the bestiary
I added to this some ingredients of the smartshooter, from the bestiary
The BA_Chase has been put into competition with numerous other creatures, and evolved into this E2 variant

In my previous universe, it grew from 5 to like 7000 creatures
at that point the computer gets a bit slow  
but eventually the number fell back to around 2500 and kept around that area

Since I started tweaking around with the universe parameters (especially costs) it is also no longer successful
but I'll come up with some new ones

Sadly, I can't remember
Anyway, before I left on holiday, I started fiddling around with the parameters of my universe, and I think it won't be successful there anymore

Suggestions / suggestions for evo sim tools

Try turning off the sun and/or setting the repop threshold at or above the max veggy level if you want repopulation to be the sole means of new veggies coming into existance.  This will put non-native veggies such as Shirnking Violet at a disadvantage since they cannot reproduce and will not be repopulated since they are not native to that sim.

I have set repopulation threshold very low
(probably because I discovered there was a veggy flag pretty late   )
So that will probably be the reason ...
So the thing I was looking for, is actually already there  

Thanks for the hint, I will try this maybe tomorrow, ..., and then I leave on vacation

Suggestions / suggestions for evo sim tools

« on: July 16, 2008, 03:08:40 PM »

I will post my suggestion here again (I already suggested this in another thread)
I like to create large environments with many different bots of which population is controlled by different veggies.
But if you choose multiple veggies, they are not evenly distributed, leaving mostly one veggie dominating, and thus also the species that likes them for lunch.  It would be nice to be able to choose multiple veggies that are either evenly distributed or if you can set a number for each veggie.

It would create some interesting possibilities.  For instance, some veggies stick together, like Fish, vegparasite, Shrinking Violet, and many others...    Other species sort of explode when they hit such a cluster, ..., like swarm, reaper, rabidus, ba_chase, etc....

By selecting multiple veggies, you can create different niches, seperated by a void
This way it is also possible to have many different bots active at the same time

It also creates new types of species ...  like for instance if in a large universe swarm (or a variant of swarm) hits a cluster of fish (or a variant of fish) it explodes and creates a big bang like universe with thousands of bots going further and further from the epicentre in all directions .... Then I have this weird bot Chaos_Proleatriophalis    that feeds on a certain quantity of swarm ... it only is effective when not to little and not too much of swarm is floating around, thus at a certain distance from the last explosion.  I have saved several variants of this mutated bot, and it is unable to survive in a startup scenario,..., but it does very well in my exploded-swarm-after-eating-fish scenario

Another thing I already mentioned is that the alien Shrinking Violet has nested in the center of the sim, where there was absolutely nothing.   By growing up to 750 bots in this giant universe, it left only 250 spots for the other veggies, thus almost completely stripping it from food.  Eventually, the swarm from the last explosion will probably reach the Chaos_Proleatriomphalis most likely within about 10 hours and save them from starvation, ..., but anyway, it made me think about how to create more interesting situation by evenly distributing the veggies

Tips and Tricks / Random Stuff

« on: July 15, 2008, 02:31:23 PM »

I'm currently experimenting with very large environments.
I still think it would be useful if all selected veggies grow to the same number.  The way it currently works, I think, is that one veggy is dominant.  For instance, I have like 3000 bots in the top right corner, and 3000 bots in the bottom left corner, and in the center is currently growing the Shrinking Violet, and it will continue to grow until it reaches approx. 1000.   It means that it is sucking all the life out of my universe.   Interesting development, but nonetheless, one that was unintended, as violet is an alien in my space

Mutations / BA_Chase_E2

« on: July 05, 2008, 12:42:15 PM »

This is an evolved creature.
As starting code I used a variant of BlackAnt and made it Chase
The E2 version seems to grow extremely fast when the simulation starts, and is also succesful against snake variants

Seasnake must still be evolving ...
It took complete control on two of my computers, which it was not able to do last week

Have you tried to put Evy7 and Seasnake 1.3 in a large space with little food?
The seasnakes that get teleported in, even if they survive and multiply, eventually get beaten by Evy
But on the other hand, I never managed to decrease the seasnake population running at your side

What are the parameters in your universe?

This is an evolved specimen
It does great in a large environment with little food
(it especially likes amoeba_beta)

Evolution and Internet Sharing Sims / Pfft! Just tell me what to do.

« on: July 02, 2008, 04:46:20 AM »

Well, what I mean, I am totally obsessed by the idea
and eventually I will find a way to make it work like I want it to work, as there is plenty of features to tweak the environment

But maybe there should be some "out of the box" examples, so moderately interested users don't have to spend a week to find out how everything works

Typically what happens is, with the defaults as they are,
you get a small playground, with veggy's that don't carry veggy flag   ,
where in about 2-3 minutes one species takes control over your screen

What typically happens when you start playing around a bit, is that the population grows out of control,
completely freezing your computer

Neither is any good of course, and this can drive away some of the moderately interested users

Also a bit disappointing is, the fact that so little users share their bots over the internet
If your playground is sufficiently large, and your number of bots less than 1000,
all sorts of interesting stuff will happen if every 3 minutes some alien lands in your territory
That is actually the reason I got here in the first plays
Evolve is a very good program, but it misses this feature

Since I also mention Evolve, I must say, in evolve you can start with some random statements, ...,
and if the species is able to survive, it starts evolving, into a superior species
I have evolved some very powerful guys, that could actually compete with killer programs like contest & sqr2

I'm not sure I see this happening here, ..., though you may eventually see some weird species eating all your fabricated bots
(like BA_Chase, Piranha, Evy8, Miskywhisker)

I'm not sure who is currently experimenting with evolved bots, but it is possible to some degree
Seasnake 1.31 for instance ate all my Seasnake 1.3, ..., but the evolved bot Evy4 then completely whiped them out

But there is a lot depending on the environment as well, size/veggy's, total veggy's etc ...

it takes some time to be able to succesfully tune the environment

currently I'm experimenting with a large area, multiple vegs which can grow upto 350 since it is a large area

is there any way to get all selected vegs grow to the same number?  That would be nice since it would allow the biodiversity I'm after

It also took me quite some time till I found the veggy flag, which is kind of essential
but that's probably me

Another option is to just select multiple vegs

Too bad one always appears to be more succesful than the other

Is there a way to send more bots to the internet?

If you take a small playing ground, many bots are sent
If you take a large playing field, then much less bots are sent

If you increase the number of teleporters, will those then be sent to net, or internal?

It seems that evy2 and evy4 have completely whiped out seasnake 1.31 in my space  

it is an evolved creature .... just can't remember what it evolved from

So briefly put : yes, there are some (fabricated) bots out there that eat corpses

or : yes it is possible that a bot evolves into a corpse eater

What I'm basically trying to do is to build biodiversity, meaning, I see 1 species taking complete control of the screen, while I am looking for some kind of ecosystemlike environment where species depend on eachother.

If you put corpse mode on, one species that will be floating around are corpses, so if then we have corpse eaters, then we could have other species eating the corpse eaters, and so on, hence my question
