Thanks! All I have to do now is throw on the conspec and it will be golden.
I hadn't intended on it in the beginning, but the bot is turning out to be a swarmer. I can't wait until I get it perfected.
EDIT: Aww, *^#%!! It isn't capable of ignoring anything that passes conspec. I wanted to ignore anything that passes conspec so if it sees food it attacks it. Great. This is probably going to take some work, but I'm going to try to make it work.
EDIT AGAIN: I did it, and I love what I see. It is now far deadlier than it began. At first, it would have SEVERE issues fighting basicswarmer. Once this system went in, it clobbered it. Ate the alga so fast it couldn't spawn fast enough.
