Flip and Go - Evolved Virtual Creature

[ecreif]

i love this one.. really interesting technique... what are your experiences with using a much bigger variety of functions,values and inputs it can use(such as creature height, speed, angle to orign, etc)? does this improve evolution speed or is it bad for finding good solutions?

I'm not really sure if combining multiple measures makes any difference at all. I would wager that the main influence is just the difficulty of the individual measures (if jumping were harder than traveling, say) and not the fact that they're combined.

Now, that's one fascinating bugger :)

I would like to see, when water has been fixed, how well this creature would do.

I suspect it would do better than most land creatures in water.

The feet look like they'd make good flippers.

This one is really cool.

I like this creature. Kinda move gracefully.

Thanks for the twist ending... you still got me on this one.

I'm really pleased with this one too. I like the way it starts upside-down and flips itself over.
