Title: The self robotic evolution project...
Post by: System32 on July 23, 2009, 10:26:11 AM
here is the idea: AI some newbies bots, no matter how crap, and get them to improve by themselves by AI'ing each "Generation". Essentially, Replicating a form of evolution to see what things pop out.

It's not a biased thing, it's just an experiment. All we need is a person who can AI and Ain't the kinda person who will nag every detail.

I know, I know... The idea seems stupid. But when you think about it, it's a pretty good form of teaching... eh?

Who wants to try it?

So ther bot is evolving, or the AI is evolving?

The bots are evolving.

Basically, evolution is stuff that is better replacing older stuff.

Pretty simplistic view of it, but your essentially right. So, the bots get better as the newbie builds new bots which are then Aied by good Aiers?

Yeah, they're basically learning by themselves, without any outside help.

Besides the AIing?

Post by: System32 on July 23, 2009, 11:34:20 AM
Yeah, Apart from that.

Interesting idea!

I used to run a screensaver that demonstrated creature evolution, where their goal was to move as far as possible. After half a year of running, mine developed some sort of legs.

What was it called? I can only remember Darwin pond.

I think its a good idea.

I think it is a waste of time

I think LRA2 should be the guinea pig! Or someone else...

Post by: HurricaneAndrew on July 24, 2009, 03:59:51 PM
I would gladly be the guinea pig.

we could do something like the ai evolevovles itself. it makes some random tactics and seees which ones stand up to the hardest bots. maybe  a sns might become some sorta poker.

OK then, Make about 15 LW's, 15 MW's and 15 HW's and send them to me. I'll post them in pictures, AI them, send them back to you. You then build bots to beat your already AIed ones.

Simple? Betcha.

Good luck HA.

Post by: GameKing3 on July 24, 2009, 06:12:36 PM
That is alot of bots to build so glad it is not me.

He can take as long as he likes...
Title: The self robotic evolution project...
Post by: HurricaneAndrew on July 25, 2009, 03:17:45 PM
Whoa! Hold It. 15 of each class? I don't have that kind of time.
 
Sorry. Maybe try to get LRA2 to do it. Lord knows he needs the practice.
 
And plus I hadn't noticed the AIing part. I haven't learned to AI yet.
Title: The self robotic evolution project...
Post by: System32 on July 25, 2009, 03:47:39 PM
Not each class, Just 15Random HW's, LW's and MW's. Or 15 of one weight.. IDC.

I'll be AIng...

Edit: Infact, you tell me what you'll send. I'll AI it as I said and Send it to you, and we can do it from there...

Since we have a whole lotta newbies come in, I'd like to tell you guys that I really wanna retry this project.

I'd like to ask sparky if he'd like to make that AI pack, send as many bots he'd like at me, I'll AI them.

Am I still a newbie?
Title: Re: The self robotic evolution project...
Post by: System32 on January 09, 2010, 09:19:46 AM
No.

You are a Normie.

Lke Wham, and me, and Metal Virus, Doomkiller, Pwnator and I think that's it.
Title: Re: The self robotic evolution project...
Post by: G.K. on January 09, 2010, 09:22:28 AM
Metal Virus? He's a vet isn't he?
And what about Craaig, Condor, Badnik and H@Z?
Title: Re: The self robotic evolution project...
Post by: System32 on January 09, 2010, 09:24:02 AM
Yeah, those guys too.

I mean Virus Bomb. Whoops.

Sparky just volenteered. I think I can get this to work after all.
Title: Re: The self robotic evolution project...
Post by: russian roulette on January 09, 2010, 01:11:29 PM
Ill try. Just look at how my Raw2 entry evolved.

yeah, maybe we could wright an AI that learns from other bots, such as a trinity SnS that just spins, but when it fights othere trinitys, it "evolves" into one, then if it fight wide load,it turns into a poker

Sparky's RA2 is messed up, and He's already gotten advice.

I need fresh meat, people who haven't been shown advice for this to work.

If a another newbie joins, Can you please Not post any advice. I only need one person.

Thank you.

well I had a totaly diferent Idea

The way you say it.... *evil laugh*

It's probably easier to have a few relative new players participate and mixed into one larger AI pack, that way every beginner can participate with just 3 bots rather than 15.

That there is a grand Idea.

I think that may work instead.
