What is the program you are using??? I'm using Brevecreatures, But I only have the screen saver.. I've watched it and I have to say I enjoy it allot! what program is this? if it is Brevecreatures, how do you do the things you are doing in the video?
So this is possibly what virtual evolution could promise. All I've seen are videos with early stage creatures that look stupid and flop around. But this, with heavily evolved creatures with many generations looks great.
For each limb there's a gene that determines whether it will be mirrored. When a limb is mirrored, a copy of it grows out of the other side of the block from which it sprouts - identical except flipped.
That makes bilateral symmetry occur fairly easily. Now and then I see something like trilateral symmetry appearing, but it's a kind of 'make-shift' trilateral symmetry - by having a limb mirrored and then having another of the same type that isn't mirrored, all sprouting from the same block.
I was thinking, have you ever wondered showing a computer programming company (beats me what it would actually be called) you're program so they could make it even better, like changing blocks into bones and making it a bit more user friendly and so on?
Sorry for the slow reply. Yes, that's something I've considered. I might do that one day - still, I'd kinda like to beef it up on my own a bit more first (or a lot more) - just hard to find the time to do that :)
@kjlg74 How much time did it take to make? like in days?

@nlicky Thanks :)
Many of my creatures do look fairly feeble, but now and then some elegant ones arise, like this one.

I count it as one of my personal favorites too. In fact, I added a new "favorites" page to the creatures web site.

Are the legs and bilaterly coded for or are they all different mutations over time?
