For my final I decided to continue my “Male Female” code by adding food, reproduction, and genetic algorithms. Here are some of the basic rules I am imagining:
- Male and Females are attracted to each other
- Sex drive makes them seek more
- Charm makes them be more successful in pairing up
- They eat
- The more they eat the slower they get
- If they don’t eat enough, they don’t make it to the mating area
- They can only mate in certain areas (migration)
- They only go to the migration areas when they are paired up
- Going to mating areas requires energy and makes them hungry
- If they get too hungry they give up on mating
- They need food to have enough energy to get the mating areas
- Some animals can hold more food than others
- Once they mate, they die
- Kids inherit the properties of the parents with a bit of mutation
Properties or DNA:
- Appetite vs. Sex drive
- Stomach size vs. Charm
complicated?-some can store more food, so they can mate more?
once they mate they die?
