Run-time error 6

[Testlund]

This happened when I was testing mutation oscillation for the first time ever.

I was preparing folders to run multiple instances so it's also possible I might have missed to copy over some important file. The zip contains all the files I thought I needed to just run an internal sim. Edit: It has nothing to do with that.

No need to have Internet Mode files if I'm not going to run in Internet Mode, right?

I made the zip directly after running in Safe Mode.

Oh, and I was also trying to run a script that would make DB pause whenever a bot gets a .repro gene. Haven't tried running such scripts before.

[Shadowgod2]

it's due to the mutation oscillation settings. it doesn't work for some reason and crashes at about 32700 cycles every time i've run it.

[Testlund]

OK, that's unfortunate. It would be cool if it worked.

[Shadowgod2]

i tried getting bots on it

[Testlund]

Actually, it DOES work if you don't exceed the number 16000.

[Botsareus]

Yea, this thing still lives! apparently. I thought I took care of that one. Back to the drawing toolz.

[Botsareus]

Oh, looky here. Testlund got me an autosave that actually crashes! Good Job!
There is no specific description on the mod operater that it does not handle anything greater then an unsigned integer, proof:

Used to divide two numbers and return only the remainder.

Syntax

result = number1 Mod number2

The Mod operator syntax has these parts:

Part Description
result Required; any numericvariable.
number1 Required; anynumeric expression.
number2 Required; any numeric expression.


Remarks

The modulus, or remainder, operator divides number1 by number2 (rounding floating-point numbers to integers) and returns only the remainder as result. For example, in the followingexpression, A (result) equals 5.

A = 19 Mod 6.7

Usually, thedata type of result is aByte, Byte variant,Integer, Integer variant,Long, orVariant containing a Long, regardless of whether or not result is a whole number. Any fractional portion is truncated. However, if any expression isNull, result is Null. Any expression that isEmpty is treated as 0.

[Botsareus]

It is a long, damn.

[Botsareus]

My result is an integer, that was stupid. Here we go, this should work:


Once again, robots I can debug, people entering retarded numbers I can not. I can not be expected to put floor and ceil on every damn text box can I?

New project for Shadowgod: I want you do go trough ALL the textboxs you can find in Darwinbots and check if you can crash Darwinbots by putting goofy values in teh textboxes.

[Shadowgod2]

oh boy, this will be fun. i'll start tonight, 2 sims at a time.

[Botsareus]

I seriously hope that was sarcasm, otherwise my view on the whole planet will be complete.

[Shadowgod2]

which part the fun or the i'll start tonight.

[Botsareus]

Ok fine you win:

Evolution is a blow, and the only way to stimulate anything intelligent is to use a neural network!

Happy now?

edit:

Breaking news: Botsareus quits DB because he can not handle the administrative work!

That should make several people happy imo, eh?

edit:

I love when people only add fual to the fire instead of letting things go, the only thing left in life worth really working toward.

[Botsareus]

Wow, nice. This people forced me to actually follow the logic of what my picy and signature under picy supposed to mean. Usually, at least what I thought about Numsgil's picy you are supposed to act the opposite of what your picy and signature under picy supposed to mean.

Awesome job! I like a good kick in the ass!

[Shadowgod2]

Don't you think your over reacting a bit. I was just messing with you and yes I was being sarcastic in the one post.
