Yeah. I like his videos.

Thanks mate.

So I've made a few changes and will probably make a second video tonight or tomorrow.

I just wanted to bump this one last time because I actually got some real evolution to occur:

I found it neat.

man i'd love to just run this for days to see what kinds of behavior come about. it's like watching a problem solve itself

Yeah. Unfortunatly evolution is pretty slow. Gotta find some way to actually encourage it. I'd release the program itself but I'm still working on it and windows defender doesn't seem to like when I download it.

Also I have no idea how I'm going to deal with cells being able to grow different body parts.
I probably should have made the cells behavior based on some sort of simulated chemical reactions rather than just a script, but that seems rather complicated.

You would probably like computational biology a lot.  If you're interested in molecular dynamics, I can help you get set up with it, since I'm interested in what you would do with it.

I'm actually over half way to getting a BA in biology. Ever since I started the idea of running expiriments in silico has facinated me.

I'd be happy to let you help, though it'd probably mean starting over with a whole new program. Do you have a job/degree that works with that kind of stuff?

It's been two weeks since this topic was up, but I released my work so far here:

Your program is extremely interesting. Good work!
