Framsticks

I have found myself wishing I could set selection for vertical velocity as
inversely proportional to the frams performance.

I am hoping that fitness criteria set as

Vertical Position 1x
Vertical Velocity 1/x

Would help , in the early stages, for developing frams that move uphill
slowly, rather than frams that roll/jump/shuffle down the hill quickly...

ok, as soon as they start going uphill quickly it all goes wrong, but got to
get them going uphill first...

Am I right in this line of thinking?

Thanks,

Matt.

If I load an experiment state from a previous experiment,
whenever I hit 'Go' the simulation runs for 10 secs, pauses for
15, runs for 10, pauses for 15.... resulting in a 'steps' rate much much
lower than normal. I have world ''speed' set to every 1000, and the
'individuals' window updating every 10000.

I have tested this simply by loading frams, starting a simple experiment and
seeing it jump to 25 / 30,000 steps a second and stay that way. Then, load
an experiment, press go and get the pausing problem.

Hi all,

I did a distance&speed directed evolution experiment, resulting in creatures
with HUGE muscle power.

Does the model in any way take strength aspects into account? A stick
connected to a strong muscle should be stronger and therefore heavier than
one connected to a weak muscle.

Dear all,

I did a speed&distance directed evolution, which resulted in creatures with
HUGE muscle power (over 30 M's for a 7 stick creature).
There was no feeding, so they all had to do with the initial 100 units per
stick.
One would expect, and the docs suggest, that more muscle power results in
higher energy consumption, and hence shorter lifespan.
Lifrspan of this muscular beast, however, appears to be equal to that of a
dumb creature, not moving at all.

Hi,

An excellent program. OpenGL is nice to watch too :)

I am wondering if there is any documentation or tutorials/examples for the
scripting language within Frams other than the single page posted by Maciej
previously.

Thanks,

Matthew Warren.

Hi all,

I want to envolve worms to eat energy ball, but after 4 days and more
and more different simulation parameters my worms don't want to found
energy balls !!!

Could someone help me by telling me what's go wrong with my paramaters ?

Here is my project with the best cadidates for pacgum quest (see attach

Hi all!

I'm new here...I've downloaded Framsticks today!
Can you help me to use it?
Thanks in advance.

There are various neuron types, many of them
experimental only. To use other neurons, try this syntax:

//0
p:
n:0,d="sin:f0=0.1"

This example creates a sinus generator neuron
(see sin.neuro file in data\ for its source).
It is the same as

function go()
{
NeuroProperties.t = NeuroProperties.t+NeuroProperties.f0+Neuro.weightedInputSum;
Neuro.state = Math.sin(NeuroProperties.t);
}

You can simulate the above genotype and see the signal
generated by the neuron.

I'm conducting experiments in Evolutionary Psychology (evolving sexual
strategies like courting behavior).

For this, I need to set the fitness function to some kind of reproduction. I
chose to take collissions between creatures as an analogy to mating. I
modified the standard experiment definition accordingly.

However, the creatures don't collide at all! Could this be because some
collission-avoidance process runs outside of the experiment definition? Or
can this be set from within the definition?

Thank you in advance.
