I Made an Ecosystem Simulation in Unity. They Evolved. (devlog)

Hey everyone! In this devlog we are making an ecosystem simulation in Unity. There are three main habitats for which we are going to create a simple AI and see if they can coexist together.

[@Bloodlinedev]

All attributes need a tradeoff, else every agent will just max out all the relevant stats. More speed = more muscles = more mass to maintain = needs more food to survive. More neck = visible from further away etc. That would make the simulation much more interesting.

[@whannabi]

Yes, we can already predict what's gonna happen which defeats the point of a simulation. It's supposed to model things that are harder to simply calculate by hand.

[@decaquestionmarks6438]

I think a good tradeoff for the trees would be to make how often they are eaten from be the determiner for how far the tree's offspring can spawn. Then couple that with a crowding mechanic, so trees are incentivized to keep their height in a range reachable only by some deer but not all or else they and their offspring die from overcrowding.

[@regionfuego6]

To build on this, while this could be more complicated to program, maybe the coyotes could have different “killing” strength. The strongest ones could potentially take down a deer in one attack but they tend to be slower while the smaller ones would be faster but potentially weaker and take longer to take them down

[@WilliamWizer]

exactly. to give an example for the trees. if it's too high, it needs more food and deers will focus more on them since they are more visible. it would also need some population control for trees. if an area of trees is too dense, trees can't get enough nutrients and/or light. one important factor would be to take into account the age of the deers. if a female becomes too old, she will be more interested in accepting a male so she can have children. after a certain age, females reach menopause and males don't ask them again to copulate. coyotes should also be able to die of old age. both, deer and coyotes should gain wisdom with time but lose other traits. less stamina/speed/perception but more wisdom/cunning.

[@Vav97]

These are great suggestions! Thanks

[@bluespiral7905]

The game looks really cool, but I feel like the trees have an unfair advantage against deers. Give the trees swords😤

[@LetsPlayCrazy]

"I gave them memory, but they wouldnt leave the lakes" aaaaand you just explained why every city ever was erected near a watersource. If you reimplement this feature, but give hunters the same ability (to remember where they last got their pray, while deer remember the last time they saw a deer die) that might lead to some really fun interactions!

[@shanellemurrey9300]

Yeah because staying around water sources/ especially food sources is what deer do when they have no reason to go anywhere from lack of predators. They will just stay in one spot and eat the entire area bare if there isn’t the threat of predators to keep them moving. So it was pretty realistic they just stayed in one spot while they didn’t have predators lol

[@endercake3403]

Damn that's a valid point, if hunters have memory too the prey will evolve to avoid the water sources unless necessary

[@digitaldritten]

@@endercake3403 yeah the wolves should have water memory too!

I would love to see this with multiple other species! Imagine other predators competing with the coyotes for deer, or other consumers competing with the deer for vegetation. This could be incredibly dynamic. Keep up the awesome work!

[@MyDude199]

Predator problem comes from lack of population mostly, your sim does a good job of co-evolution from a simliar stock, but it really seems for stage 1 preds to form (ones that just can barely hunt) you really need very dense pops, which is why your fish usually become preds but your land animals don't.

I've been trying youtube for long years now (not only on the channel you can find under this account of mine) and I can sympathize with your hard work not earning too much attention early on. The sacred youtube algorithm needs some time to understand what your audience is so it can recommend it to the right people... and launch an ever-growing community IF you have a catalog of high-quality videos - and the man you have it.

Enjoyed a LOT of your jokes and editing. I'd love to chat with you - but I don't have a 1000 subs, so I can't send you a friend request! :D :D Btw. when people start to binge watching your videos like I've done, as far as I know, that is when KZbin just really becomes crazy about your content as you are increasing our session time on the platform by a lot.

[@tfhminecraft]

Glad you are evoluating in the youtube chain!

[@sneggulf]

Great video! I have a potential solution to your giraffe problem. You could have it so that the deer eat the trees and poop out seeds, therefore forcing the trees to not grow too tall, or else they can't reproduce. I'd love to see more of this though. Edit: You could also link the speed to the stamina, so that they'd have to sacrifice their stamina for speed or the opposite.

[@Vav97]

Thanks for the comment! True, the trees are kinda op now, as they need nothing to reproduce but time. Making the trade off is also another way to make it all more interesting. Thanks :)

[@shanellemurrey9300]

Yeah that would be a good idea because then if the trees grow too tall they won’t be able to spread/ reproduce as easily so they’ll have to stay a bit smaller

[@cosmomnom]

Maybe consider making the trees adapt in different ways, like producing more fruit, spawning closer, etc. Also, trees could need nutrients to survive, like deer and coyote feces. Lastly, females should also consider the weaker males to mate with in case they don't have other options to reproduce. Very excited to see more of this!

[@Vav97]

Indeed, the trees ase overpowered now, I like the idea! Also, yes, if females could choose a weaker mate, they would not died 🤣 thanks for the comment!

The necks are actually realistic. Giraffes evolved long necks because they only ate food from trees. Deer on the other hand normally eat grass, therefore don't need the long necks.

[@frogman5956]

True, if they grew longer necks then it means they are the only animal apart from birds that can use it as a food source

So a big problem we have had in the bibites is that predators are very very hard to translplant, especially when they start out as a stage 2 pred (predators that can actively hunt). A few factors are necessary for survival: Co-Evolution, Large Pops, and ways for predators to store kills so they don't constantly have to find food.

If you give deers food preferences and let them choose between trees, grass and bushes, you could have giraffes, cows/another grass eating animal (a good point to add a gene that changes the size of the animal depending on the food they choose) and still deers. Repeat with more aspects of their lives and you'll have an environment that evolves a bunch of different species from the same root

[@Vav97]

That’s actually very interesting idea, didn’t think of that. I was thinking that as the deers grow their necks, make them only be able to mate with other deers with long necks. Connect that with your idea, and yeah, one species would evolve to multiple others. That would be a very interesting experiment!

[@gamedev_byhobby8872]

@@Vav97 yeah, it's a powerful system with a lot of potential tbh. You can simplify it by making an evolution tree where you define what evolves into what and with what requirements, so it makes sense and you don't get overwhelmed by how to make a deer evolve into a mouse. With enough evolution decisions it would get there step by step

[@HenryLoenwind]

@@Vav97 You'd want a system where the chance for offspring is proportional to the difference between the genes of the parents. And open up the value a bit, 25% mutation in one generation is too much.

Something I can think of to get the trees and deers to coexist better, would be that they require the nutrients from dead deers to grow, so the more deer they feed, the more trees exist. And then feedback loop

[@thaumaticpig]

It'd be interesting if you gave the trees fruit and a nutrient system. The nutrients would be used by the trees to grow their height and also regrow new leaves and fruit. Where trees cluster together, they would fight over limited nutrients and would struggle to take full advantage of their inherited traits. The fruits can be used to spread the trees, like how it works in the video, but they can also be eaten by the deer and the deer can poop the seeds out around the map growing trees even further off. I think this would give the trees and deer an interesting symbiotic relationship like much of nature has irl

[@alexskoke782]

This is cool! But the trees should be using the dear to spread their seeds. The dear should be eating their fruit or seeds instead of the tree. I’d be really interested to see what that looked like too! Great work!

Amazing video ! the video reminds me of the graph where the deer number increase -> then the coyotes have more deer to eat so many are killed -> now there are more coyotes which can reproduce and feed their children however now they need more food to feed the higher coyote population but since so many coyote's can hunt many deer, now there is a small deer population -> coyote's numbers reduce since they can't find enough deer to feed the increased population -> deer numbers increase since less coyote's to hunt them, rinse and repeat.

[@The_hot_blue_fire_guy]

I can think of two things that would be interesting to add! The first is that trees could evolve some kind of defense against getting eaten. Like some trees and plants in the real world do they could maybe produce a very bad tasting bitter flavor that most herbivores don’t like! Or they could evolve some kind of other defense mechanism like thorns or poison. The second idea is to go back to the memory thing you tried earlier but instead of it being something that everyone has it could be another genetic trait. Basically some of the dear and some of the coyotes will have better long term memory than others. To prevent them from just getting stuck near the water we could use some kind of discouragement. Ether make it so that they are more vulnerable if they are close to the water hole or (the more fun thing in my opinion) we could ad a new contender in this little evolutionary experiment! I’m thinking maybe alligators or crocodiles that live in the water and will ambush the animals that come to drink. So now the animals that go to the water will have to be extra careful so they don’t get eaten! I would also like to see if it could be possible to make a completely self sufficient system eventually. What would it take for the ecosystem to be stabilized and not collapse after a week or two?! Another idea for two more additions to the ecosystem is owls and mice! Owls live in trees and hunt mice at night (giving night an actual purpose for survival) and mice will live in underground tunnels and will only come out to find food or water!

[@ethandoingstuff1433]

i like it. I’d like to see animals communicating with one another, perhaps 3 calls each. and have them tied to inputs and outputs through genetics. And maybe there should be trade offs for the various stats; trees have height and the downside could be a shorter life span (doesnt make realworld sense but would limit offspring) deer have stamina, fov, speed, and neck height, downsides could be food required, water required, stamina used, and speed reduction respectively coyotes could have similar downsides to deer.

[@Vav97]

Yes, the trade offs is a must to implement, cuz with this kind of logic, they will always evolve ALL their stats, or die out. Thanks for the comment :)

[@Athanor_]

[@kplays_6000]

It was a very well-made simulation, however it felt like there were no drawbacks and the ideal way for things to survive quickly became a maxing solution rather than minmax, and it kind of took away any opportunity for balance. I think having drawbacks to characteristics would be a massive improvement and lead to much more interesting results which would really let the natural selection / genetic algorithms shine!

If you make trees grow from the poop of the deers i think the tree part will be more balance, i would also make so mating threathold get lower the more a female rejects. Great video, cant wait for next one!
