Instead of deleting the whole wall you might want to put little holes in so that the small movers can pass through but the big ones can't. That might become interesting in terms of that some organism can move between ecosystems an others can't.

Nice! Edit: WHY DID I PUT AN EMOJI

My favorite wall configuration now is a simple "maze" that is basically a compressed and zig-zagged loop made with strait walls. You get enough isolation to get greater diversity while still allowing the living parts to replenish the parts that destroy themselves (most of the time) without editing. I have also tried filling half the screen with individual wall bits forming a matrix... like the sand grains myofauna live in.

In reality this does not apply. Here you can just drop random food or make creatures to produce it out of thin air. But in reality, plants are taking nutrients from soil and air and with use of water and sun they produce all essential materials and food.

Fascinating simulation (one of my fav types of programs). I wonder if there were some way to make the four 'environments' different in some ways? Then see what happens if the four regions aren't COMPLETELY cut off from one and other but very restricted communication. So many ideas I want to try... Going to see if I can find the code for this and have some fun!!!

I think that being able to have longer-sight eyes and being able to throw blocks in a certain direction (either as a distraction or for attacking) would be useful, especially if that throwing was able to skip a few blocks of the impenetrable barrier, allowing us to make areas which threw food from inside a wall to outside it. Or, alternatively, a block onto which creatures can walk, but inside which food is produced faster, another one where mutations are produced faster, another one where creatures are hungrier,, another one for more damage, another one for more defense, and versions where it's the opposite.

Yeah, imagine a 2 pixel wide winding path so that some are incentivized to remain small to navigate it, while others simply remain in the larger areas.

@@MetroAndroid Exactly the idea I was thinking. By having a wide range of 'environments' selection pressures in different areas could/should cause some diversity. Maybe even just having a tight 'choke point' between areas that limits interaction (not just a solid wall) could be interesting to experiment with.

A bit late to the party, but I liked the idea of the walls - but with a twist: I generated random walls, then tore holes (or tore out entire walls) so that all the regions connect. This results in a geography of semi-isolated biomes. Creatures can migrate across the entire space, but will tend to evolve in mostly-separated enclaves.

Also a library of creatures would be nice, could you implement something like that?

Removing the barriers is kind of what happens in the modern world with tourism and transport. All the species had divergent evolutions on different continents and are now brought back together again. I think somebody called it the pangaea effect. There are e.g. fungi from Europe killing frogs in South America and a gigantic genetically identical ant colony from Argentina conquering all of the northern coast of the Mediterranean Sea.

This video was very good and informative. Thank you, Emergent Garden, very cool.

using the editor tools I was able to make the perfect predatory creature in the simulation and cause the population and genetic diversity to plummit this is a cool simulation

Love it! I was thinking that maybe having extra cells could make them need more food. In this way, having eyes wouldn’t be that OP. Also, if moving would need more food, it would approximate real life even more. Plus, maybe we can use that feature to evolve herbivores by adding a cell that can make them stop moving on demand.

They don't need food to live, just need it to reproduce

Damn you are very underated i gotta show people this

When I did this I was getting in one corner producers who did play a role of producer, and didn't move But they were a result of a mutation, so they had killer cells and eyes they weren't using, like the eyes were these weird pointless vestigial organ They died out very quick acutally because where they developed was filled with these really efficient hunters who could also make their own food. Really they were an amazing organism, and when I brought down the walls they hunted everything else to extinction until it was only variations of themselves

Does the number of cells affect the food consumption per organism? And if so, do certain cells need more food than others? Are you planning to add different enviroments to which the organisms need to adapt?

@themicroplanetblog1316

2 жыл бұрын

In order to reproduce, an organism must consume as much food as it has cells in its body. The larger the organism, the more food it must consume to reproduce. An organism with 10 cells must consume 10 cells of food to reproduce.

What’s with the muted commentary section? What In this context could warrant sensor ship??

try out to make walls and leave a gap in each wall plugged with food the eventual breakthrough and block it again you will get osculation in the population growth

I have been trying to find evolution games which is difficult since I play on Chromebook so I have to use the app store and you're game is what I have been looking for and I only just started playing it

Some especially interesting things start happening when you turn off rotation. It makes stuff adapt more efficiently. Fx, I observed a species, that evolved just one murdery stick out bit, and armor on the opposite side. that way, it could kill stuff, but be unable to kill others of the same species. There wer other minor, but facinating details about it. It coexisted with a manually engeneered simple plant initially consisting of 1 mouth and 8 producers around the mouth, but is started developing murder bits or thorns, not in a way, that allowed it to get more food, but simply the keep away the predators! They coexisted for a long time. I tried to make a being superior to the predator mentioned before, but instead of eradicating the naturally occuring one, my new predators just ended up moving to another region of the at that point dense forest of thorn-covered bushes.

Fun way to demonstrate speciation

*_"...and eat the producers.."_* I like the sound of that.

In my current world, the largest creature ever was 19 cells. I wasn't there for it, and it happened to long ago for any of the charts to show anything, but it happened.

Maybe try making better rotation? So, you'd have rotation states, where it would of course be snapped onto the grid with certain cells prioritized so that they don't get lost during any of the rotation phases.

@flameofthephoenix8395

This could lead to interesting results, it could be that certain movers could rotate 45 degrees to turn off movement, as the plant cells would be prioritized over the movement cells causing the movement cells to disappear.

@flameofthephoenix8395

10 ай бұрын

By the way, the reason some would disappear is because the amount of non rotated squares snapped to a grid that can fit in the shape of a diagonal line is less than a horizontal one, meaning you would lose 100-sqrt(5000)% of the cells on the creature, if certain cells evolved to be prioritized this could lead to interesting behavior, ensuring that the percentage of lost cells weren't important ones.

i think it would be worth exploring the hexagonal grid it can be achieved similarly with neighboring cells as so: ⬛⬛___ ⬛___⬛ ___⬛⬛

Evolution is random, random small mutations, one of those mutations caused the creature to not have a mouth, that creature won't stay tho.

a small predator only needs to kill one large one to be able to multiply a bunch so even if a bunch die in combat its fine
