Showcasing 1.3 advancements | January 25 Stream Recap

I know you don't have 3 hours to watch a full live-stream. You're a busy person and I respect that.
So here, I decided to save you sometime and boil all the live-stream down to its essential 24:26 minutes. You can thank me later.
Shout out to Vincent Caussan for the amazing help he provided to arrange the whole edit. He's the MVPest of them all.

I love that one species who’s just like: “If energy, spin” “If see food, accelerate!”

@Lucas Stefanescu Im gonna make it on a experiment probably

[@JJ-tp2lc]

"If see victim, YEEEET"

[@pvic6959]

im the human version of that lol

[@Pyriphlegeton]

3:00 Might it perhaps be possible to let not only the Nodes but also the connections between them repulse each other? So that Nodes wouldn't be stuck on top of connections, making them invisible.

[@antonstezhkin5991]

Uasbility idea: make end neyrons visually different. Maybe even all neuron types should be visually different.

[@pladselsker8340]

yeah good idea. Like add shapes or colors or even sprites

[@teresahockett741]

Ideas: Temperature Packs Different types of pellets Edit: Also fourth.

Wow! Been a few months since I checked out the progress of these little dudes. Super great work man! Love the diversity of parameters you can chuck at em

[@TheBibitesDigitalLife]

Thanks ! It's slow progress but it's progress nonetheless !

[@edisonkimmel7843]

thanks for compiling the stream! I don't think I would have watched it otherwise

[@Ali107]

Are there plans for making "evolving plants"? so Bibites have more varieties of food options. I mean the plants having their own characteristics like if they fight back or if they're edible by this type of Bibite or the color, size and shape etc.

[@humanperson7466]

Good idea

[@blizzardkiehn2508]

He mentioned that in the video.

[@jannikheidemann3805]

2:02 You not only need linear repulsion between the nodes but also radial repulsion between the connections, so that if two connections on the same node have almost the same angle they repell each other with a torque at the node that is thier common endpoint in order to incerease the angle between them.

[@TheBibitesDigitalLife]

Very true

[@diogocruzdiniz3186]

A thing that would get even more people interested in your amazing job so far would be to publish the very first and basic version of the code. So, you're releasing 1.3 now, which seems awesome! If you release the code for 1.0 and leave that one public I believe that would promote you because people would want newer versions and subscribe on patreon to get the newer versions.

[@TheBibitesDigitalLife]

The game is available for free up to 1.2 right now on itch.io (link on my channel) !

Haha 2minute papers outro ^^ Awesome work! I love this project

[@Schematical]

Good to see you are still working on this. I would be interested in more details on how you implement rtNEAT. I am trying to implement it for a project on my own channel. Any info you can give would be amazing. Thanks and keep it up!

[@antonstezhkin5991]

Bibbits with flexible tales are awesome!

[@jackkinker8957]

Interested, considering the background color change, about the possibility of camouflage. i.e. Bibites would have a more difficult time seeing bibites of a certain color if that bibite is on a part of the background with the same color.

[@aleksitjvladica.]

FINALLY! MATE I WAITED FOR THIS SO LONG!

[@vdwhite687]

I think you can implement the poor and few connection bibites by making a button where it starts with moving or not This can make the harder longer beginning without it, or not with it turned on

You should make the Bibites have the ability to evolve to smell the plants.

[@gmdesert3810]

could be cool to have weather , and it can be different in some area ( exemple a rain start in the north but not in the south, a sand storm somehere else) the weather will nact the humidity a well

make it plz is sick

[@martinbasille3935]

Do you think that bibites would be able to make colonies like ents if they had a really long time to evolve ?

[@TheBibitesDigitalLife]

For now they lack a few features that would make that worth it. They have pheromones that allow them to communicate but right now they lack more incentives to do so. I'm starting to think about adding herding behaviors that they could develop, would make for interesting effects I'm sure !

[@teambellavsteamalice]

Lots of progress! I'm curious how you will implement sexual reproduction, my guess would be the fertilization of eggs. I'd divide the chance of various actions on sensing egg: ignore, grab, let go, eat or fertilize. Each affected by similarity to the genome of the egg, pheromones and various states like hunger. Maybe add a chance of self-fertilised eggs (to prevent not so smart bibites dying at the start). Then I'd increase the time spend in egg state and tweak so eggs will become one of the top sources of foods. I'd like a protectiveness state based on pheromones so it's likely that a colony of one color pheromone producing bibites will form that's not very likely to eat their own eggs and might be aggressive to other pheromone producing bibites. The concentration of each colour pheromones should spread and decay slowly. It would be great if there were ways to sense the healthiness of similar bibites. This could be by having a good health increase pheromone production. This is likely to lead to males following females which should be more likely to lay eggs.

I don't think it's possible for them to farm food.

@@cacnus unless they push plants towards a certain location, and move around there so they poop some energy, or sacrifice some bibites to fertilize the plants

[@TheBibitesDigitalLife]

Sorry to disappoint 🤷 But new stuff will be coming out eventually !

[@keeperofcats642]

The pheromones are really cool, but I think there should be more ways the babites can interact with each other. For example, using color for mating displays if that is ever a thing or many small babites taking down a larger one using pack hunting. Just some ideas🙂

Add a poisonous pellet

if i knew you could get a 250$ patreon page with this simulation... i will be forever poor i guess

[@cahitkarahan6378]

IDEA: Add checkIsMyChild(targetBibite) function to bibites and make that a neural net input false or true. So they can develop co-op skills with family members. Protect DNA = Protect Self + Protect Family

[@lordkalem]

dude, its been 2 freaking years, the neural editor is WAY over due. Its basically just a gold fish simulator without it. and there are WAY better gold fish sims out there that Id rather spend my time and processing power on.
