Re: vector- not.. Time stopped!

[Rudolf Nico Penninkhof]

Hi Gerald,

I figured out my 'vector' problem.. Time stopped for my gotchi, perhaps even on the server? Every time I log in I see the same age and fitness values, so that's probably also why I'm inable to change the goal.

Hi Gerald,

Again I seem to have a goal selection bug.. My target was set to the nearest opponent, but when I change it to avoid sea on the way, it didn't change.. The greg arrow, when set bocomes red, like intended but when reloading the world after an evolution episode the red arrow points to the opponent again, so the direction my Gotchi travelled didn't change The grey arrow points to the new target, but doesn't move the red one, unless I click it again, but that doesn't actually change the goal on the server. So.. Unable to avoid swimming trough the sea I swam trough it and now I find my gotchi on the edge, unable to climb out of the water. In simulation with a different direction it can get some limbs on land land crawl out of the sea, but I can't do that because the goal selection doesn't work..

Has anyone else got this problem?

Thanks! Rudolf.

Hi Folks!

I've put out a new version of Tetragotchi where they die when their
energy goes below zero, and since that wasn't a rule before there are
quite a few people with starving tetragotchis.  Don't panic but you
may soon receive an email about the death of your gotchi.

Hi Gerald,

Time runs again, though on the server less time has passed than the actual clock has. But it runs again, so I guess that may have been from a restart of the server or something. The vector problem persists though, but I'm not complaining now that I'm on the way to prey again. 

I do notice strange things when I select a very distant prey (the next one). The red vector than goes to the near dry triangles, or in between them. It does flip around in simulation, but that makes my gotchi zigzag, albeit sometimes in the general direction of prey. Also I sometimes noticed going into orbit when I pressed space.. Weird. But it's a nice adventure ;-).
