Racing game controlled by a neural network created by an evolutionary algorithm

I know its a litle bit late, but you should consider to reduce the amount of inputs. This way its going to evolve a lot faster... I used 5 distance sensors only, it worked just fine.

I would love to see this after maybe ten thousand generations :D

thanks very much for your reply , this will help me allot i am making a neural network in torcs as testing platform too, thanks.

[roleplayman]

what data do you feed to the network?

@roleplayman We had 25 input units, 19 of which were the distance sensors for every 10 degrees in the 0-180 degree half-circle in front of the car, 1 for the position of the car on the track, the angle relative to the track, speed in x-y-z direction, gear, revs, brakes.

This was one of the first finished evolved cars, after we had changed some things they got way better than this, perhaps i will post one of the final ones some time.
