Scriptbots v4: Open Source Evolutionary Artificial Life Simulation of Predator Prey dynamics
My continued work on evolving crazy hunting communicating things :) Bots can specialize in processing plant food or meat, and can therefore become carnivores or herbivores. Bots can hunt each other. They can communicate by flashing colors and also shouting at each other. Bots can choose to share food with each other. (allows for altruism) Both sexual and asexual reproduction is implemented. When a bot dies, food is distributed evenly to bots around the event. This leads to emergence of both scavengers and hunting packs. Improvements in version 4: New brain (Damped Weighted Recurrent AND, OR network) No herbivore, carnivore dichotomy. Food specialization variable instead. Allows omnivores. More sensors were added (clock sensors, blood sensor, hearing sensor) More actuators added (ability to share food): can lead to altruism Website:
