OK, I'm beginning to like this HITW idea. Seems more interesting and
challenging than having open-top hoppers driving around (or standing still).
Who's to say that your bot can't be a square, with 3 HITW, one on each side, and
on the 4th side your EOAT DNA dispenser? Increases the chances of others making
a successful deposit threefold.
Just define that your HITW needs a minimum height, width, and is a specific
height off the ground. Minimum one HITW. Bot cannot be open-topped though.
Multiplication of received and successfully dispensed bricks may work very well.
It would discourage bots that excel at only one of the tasks.
Yes, dumb luck will be a factor. But it always is, no?
The challenge will be to make a bot that is EASY - not too picky about receiving
DNA, and easily finding mates to make quick deposits.
I like it!
