We've discussed this before (probably before either of you have joined
): We need a fun and easy out-of-the-box experience, where a new user would just start the default sim and get some interesting things to watch. Bots from other members should enter the sim fairly often and be able to survive.
I have to admit that I was one of the main culprits as far as standardization of sim conditions went - my sims were always the most weird ones (they were fun though). But I've come to recognize the need for a community and we can't get a community if everyone is running very different sims.
So, I would suggest that you choose a sim that is most dear to your heart (and one that is stable and long-lasting), switch all your other sims to it and also post it here. We may also modify the download package so that it comes with this sim, with the hack and with instructions on how to start DB in this mode.
