In darwinbots there are three primary methods of reproduction. Mitoses, Sexual and Mutational.

==[[Sysvars]]:==
{{Reproduction}}

==Mitoses==
The simplest and most widely used method is .repro. This will allow a bot to reproduce an exact duplicate of itself. The number stored in .repro defines the percentage of [[energy]] and [[body]] to transfer into the child. Like all reproduction methods this takes a single cycle, after which a new bot is produced directly in front of you (ie: eye5) and facing you.

While the eyes begin working immediatly for the newborn, it takes a cycle before the refs begin reading back. This can cause wasteful attacks by the child, a good idea then is to limit the childs firing until at least one cycle of age.
