I'm guessing the mutation rate is pretty low?Yeah it was 1/16x at first but it was too slow so i increased it to 1/2x. Also the plant dna is only 22 long so it has a super low mutation rate compared to the actual bots which have dna of 150-200 length. Remember the first strain died, then the second strain came from one that was spawned in randomly and mutated.
Ok speaking about the bots, this is the best performing bot with 22 descendants. I noticed when zooming out that a lot of the bots seem to be drifting upwards, probably because of this part: "*.sun .up store"

These are the dark plants near the top/bottom edges of the screen. They have survived for 951 generations (wow), I guess being at the edge helps a lot because it reduces the bots' feeding efficiency allowing the plants to survive.

And here is a picture of the map, some bots feeding, and the cool dank vine color of the 951 generation survivor plants
) at one point i noticed one particular patch of algae that didn't go away, and had survived for 20 generations, i was super interested because most plants are just there to feed but this one was really spaced out and smaller than normal. i saw that instead of making tons of chloroplasts and trying to grow as fast as possible which would make them really big and easy to eat they just made 1 chloroplast per cycle which slowed their growth but kept them small and hard to eat. the bots seemed to be feeding off of the plants but not killing them off completely, circling around almost like gardeners.
