Something about there params. though... If you use a random seed of 1, after the initial population explosion, the nanites NEVER breed again!!! Weird! All other seed numbers breed - why doesn't 1???? (program flaw?) random_seed: 2 initial_population: 20 maximum_population: 500 population_limiter: 200 minimum_move_length: 5 maximum_move_length: 20 will_to_breed: 100 chance_of_famin_(1/x): 7000 effect_of_famin_(cycles): 75 ultimate_life_span: 3000 minimum_age_to_breed: 1 too_old_to_breed: 2800 aging_caused_by_breeding: 10 write_data_file_(1=YES): 0
