.up

.up (1) is a movement Sysvar.

Without these, there could be no movement, just bouncing, gliding, flowing and tie-pushing.

Sysvars:

Movement: .aimsx 6 .aimdx 5 .up 1 .sx 3 .dx 4 .dn 2 .aim 18 .setaim 19 .maxvel 11 .setboy 314 .rdboy 315 Forwards compatibility note: aimdx is the old name for aimright aimsx is the old name for aimleft

Syntax:

• .up accelerates the robot forward in the direction that he is facing.
• .dn accelerates the robot backward from the direction he is facing.
• .sx
• .dx

Example:

cond
start
10 .up store
stop

A robot with this gene would constantly accelerate forward at a rate of 10 per turn. That is to say that his forward velocity would increase by a value of 10. If he should rotate then the direction in which the acceleration takes place would also change.

Technical Details:

Movement values get cut above 1000 and below -1000, then added up to a single vector incluging tie and other propulsion vectors, then the vector gets cut to a lenght of 40 as maximum aceleration.
