WikiBot
Humilis is a WikiBot.
What is a WikiBot?
From Endy: Wikkibot was an idea to construct a bot online where many people can edit it. Lord knows what a hellacious bot we could all make working together.
So maybe we should construct a WikiBot template to let users know what a WikiBot is... --Numsgil 14:45, 5 Nov 2005 (MST)
use NewMove
use NewMove
- Is this use NewMove part of the bot code?
- and something that can be added to older bots for use in 2.4x?
- and if so ... will they still work in pre 2.4x versions?
- how does this work? Is there a subroutine/function "NewMove" in 2.4x then that
- somehow shunts the 'multiplication' of the accerations in old bots?
- please share your thinking so we aren't left out in the cold, eh. ;) Griztalk 09:26, 5 Nov 2005 (MST)
- it works exactly like def statements do. When the program reads the .up/.dn/etc. commands during the physics loop, they get multiplied by mass unless the use NewMove preprocessor instructor was inclc\uded in the DNA. --Numsgil 14:41, 5 Nov 2005 (MST)
Simplifying using bit manipulations
It seems to me there might be a better way to manipulate values to get 1, -1, or 0 etc. for use in cheap birth tie removal et al.
I'm thinking perhaps some sort of bit mask to XOR against the value... I'd really have to crack open my old textbooks in bit manipulation.
let's see, I seem to remember this:
let A,B be numbers
A & A = A (ie: and) A ^ A = 0 (ie: XOR)

User Feedback
Note: Nums ... your comment "someone should run the bot now to see if the management gene I added is working right (I'm still in the library)"
isn't going to be seen by anyone who doesn't use the 'recent changes' page.
people are not familiar with the wiki or how it works so you got to go out of your way to catch their attention and make it apparent.
- 2.4.7
- F1 conditions
- 30 Alga_min
- 30 Humilis
- they slowly reproduce to around 2x the starting population ...around 5000 cycles
- at around 8800-9000 cycles, they appear to shrink, looking triangular ...
- and don't seem to be able to gain energy from the agla ...
- and by 13000 cycles ... have all died.
- ran this a number of times with various populations ... same result. griz 11:37, 6 Nov 2005 (MST)
- it's probably the body management gene... Try removing it and running it and seeing what happens.
The Changes
- It's a group project man,
- I'm just not the type to explain myself each small step of the way.
- If you're shooting waste you might as well get rid of all of it
- at once rather than waste nrg doing it repeatedly.
- The original bit only got rid of 100 at a time.
- If there is over 100 waste this will result in stuff remaining.
- Sorry man this is just one of those age old genes I've seen countles
- times. It's easy to forgot not everyone's seen it.

The main reason it doesn't appear to eat is that the bot is literally checking 8 different refs/myvars against each other. Most of it's own vals and veggies are zero, preventing it from feeding. I'll see about adding some junk stuff soon.--Endychat 00:09, 9 Nov 2005 (MST)
Syntax coloring
Is there a way we can set up automatic syntax coloring. Especially things like comments could be made green, and that would help people see what's code and what isn't.
