Get Body

There are 2 ways of gaining body

1: Hunting using particle shoots. DNA command -6 .shoot results in a particle being shot in the direction the bot is facing. If the particle hits another bot, that bot will shoot back a particle containing a portion of its own body. The -1 shots also return a small fraction of another bot's body.

2: Storing energy away as body.

For 2.36 and before: Bots can store energy as body points with the .strbody command. It converts 10 energy points into 1 body point. To retreive energy back from body, bots can use the .fdbody command. However there is a limit of 100 energy points per cycle that can be retrived from body points.

Future Energy Stuff

Lots of work is being done in the area of metabolism and digestion. Relatively soon you should see some major changes in this area. These changes will be backward compatible, though, so don't worry about your current bots not working. This stuff isn't in the program yet, but is gonna be added.
