Evolving the Living Wheel! - Evolution Simulator

Ойындар

Welcome to Evolution! Evolution is a free to play evolution game where you use a neural network to program a skeleton using muscles, bones, and joints!
- - - - -
Evolution Simulator Gameplay Overview:
Use joints, bones and muscles to build creatures that are only limited by your imagination. Watch how the combination of a neural network and a genetic algorithm can enable your creatures to "learn" and improve at their given tasks all on their own.
The tasks include running, jumping and climbing. Can you build the ultimate creature that is good at all of the tasks?

    Thisyellowcar It doesn’t work like that it doesn’t evolve to achieve more score IN the evolution, it evolves AFTER the evolution, while having a short amount won’t let the evolution evolve because it has a very limited time to act, letting it a long time will only make it repeat and don’t learn anything after a certain amount of time.

    Crated technically it doesn't know what legs are. All limbs are basically things for the muscles to contract or expand. They then take the best result for the preset task and and attempt to both break down what it was that made it so favorable, while also trying new variations to improve upon the that success in the next generation..

    It's all just muscles and bones to it, but it will figure out some muscles can be used for balance, like the ones controlling the "antennas" on the preset Roo creature. It's really good at balancing too, but you have to build it so it can't move after falling down or it will learn to crawl instead. I had to install a crash bar on my unicycle to prevent it from becoming an expert face planter. It then learned to balance perfectly long before it learned to complete a single pedal stroke. It's awesome watching it complete more and more of a single revolution while staying perfectly upright, then falling over, not knowing what to do next. I'm at gen 4300 and it just completed a full revolution, now it just needs to learn to repeat the cycle.

    the first design with the weel inside was almost working, it only needed one more set of muscles that joined the central part crossing each other so it could work as "antagonist" muscles. thats how every articulation works, you need to set of opposing muscles to move it properly (at least). medical student here, want to see it work!

    if what you mean is make the wheel doesn't colapse, it is far easier to do. Just do a regular polygon (with about eight sides it seems an wheel) and connect each joint to the two second nearest joints on the "wheel". They don't colapse and it doesn't add too much weight for the creatures. If you do this you will have two squares making the form stable (with the eight sided polygon) or two triangles (with the six sided polygon) or two lines/diagonals (with one square). All of these keep the form almost completely stable. The only possible exception (I didn't teste at all) is when you have an odd sided regular polygon.

    it uses a neutral network to chose how muscles move , so in the start it will be pretty random, then it will chose the most effective way to move a muscle. So nothing is considered legs, muscles are the only thing which changes.

  • @paulwijntjes8424
    @paulwijntjes84248 ай бұрын

    Thanks for the great video. Basic problem with the wheel you created, is it has triangles with the bones, which cannot move. Just create 16 exactly (!) equal length spokes from a center joint (, without joining the outside of the spokes by bones). Then join each spoke with a muscle with both neighbours. Then strengthen each 2nd muscle to the max and it will run within 2 or 3 iterations.

    Pretty sure the wheel was getting stuck because it was missing bones to like 8 of the joints (which you did on purpose for some reason) so it has no way to support the weight of the wheel and then collapse and creates a flat surface the wheel can't overcome once you did a proper wheel, you left the things on the outside which created a rough surface. making it harder for it to roll away.

    You gotta make the circles rounder. Just use pythagorean triples.

    Give your muscles leverage on the bones, you have to set the muscle further down towards the end of The Joint to have better leverage so better strength with the muscles

    you could replace the inner bones or spokes with muscle

    Remove bones from inside and legs. Then put muscles connecting every single bone. You get jumping sponge :)

    Blitz, I made a human in this game that worked pretty well, all you have to do is just give it arm and leg joints, have a great day!

    You should get rid of the spokes and have a center conected to a wheel with mocles

    I would suggest you try and make a human from the side view because that would allow him to walk also to get the second leg I would suggest that it be already be lifted at a 90 degree angle
