lifesim by drotosclerosi

based on my old project on https://pastebin.com/UNBPqbAY (I'm darthrhonin, Sh3llc0d3r where are u after all these years? :D )

but that was kinda a spaghetti code, so I want to do it way better

eventually, I'll change the name of the project

(( Artificial Life Simulation - Be God! ))

=====

This is LifeSim. THIS IS A PRIVATE ALPHA VERSION!! if u want to try it, go on

place lifesim_ascii in /var/ and run lifesim.sh from anywhere.

This is an old project of mine (back in 2009, old days...) ported from C/C++ spaghetti code in Bash Scripting (who need else when you have WLS on Win10?).

Basically, it's a Life Simulator. No, there's no interaction and yes, this is like an animal living in your computer. The aim is to script a 'creature' which can autonomously live on a computer, interact with other creatures, generate sons with mixed dna, deal with diseases, cold, hot, enviromental variables, injuries and other factors. This creature has to be 100% autonomous and has not to be 'stupid'. There will be aggressiveness, intelligence, responsiveness, a sort of trait definition and so on.

Aims and goals: (updates coming soon)

• Nourishment based on free hdd space (not using it, don't worry!) (OK)
• Checking of local temperature in Celsius (needs internet) (OK)
• Environment with 2D spatial matrix and movements (DOING)
• Sex differentiation (OK)
• Sort of DNA (DOING)
• LifeSim interactions (FUTURE)
• DNA heritage (FUTURE)
• Reproductive system (FUTURE)
• Diseases and injuries (FUTURE)
• Better and dynamic ascii graphics (FUTURE)
• Spread across devices and internet (FUTURE AND NOT SURE)
• Better random names (FUTURE)
• Windows compatibility (FUTURE AND NOT SURE [cygwin embedded?])
• Better and useful traits like aggressiveness and so on (DOING)

• Ageing (FUTURE)

• Optimizations (ALWAYS DOING)

BTW, a Bash Life Simulator
