(...) Redundancy is good :) (...) Good. It's generally solid, but can cause some issues from time to time. <snip lots of monkey talk :) > (...) Distance of movement or consistency (i.e. always forward) or both for fitness? Sounds really cool. Good (...) (24 years ago, 21-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) What sort of "issues" are these? Are you referring to the normal issues of multithreading (synchronization, deadlock, etc.), or specific legOS-related problems with it? I have a program that uses a decent amount of multithreading, and I'd hate (...) (24 years ago, 21-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) Probably movement since it is easier. Our fitness function may have to change once we see the result though. GA tends to give you individuals that cheat every chance they get :). (...)

(...) Neural nets do similar things. Our class had some very interesting cheaters. I actually thought the students learned as much from watching their robots cheat as they did from any other single component, since figuring out the "cheating" forced (...)

This can come as a surprise, since you'll only notice it when one thread never executes. (...) (24 years ago, 21-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) Ack! I knew that it was cooperative in the 0.1.x series, but I had thought it was preemptive in 0.2.x. Drat. Well, I don't think it's a major problem for me, since I call msleep() religiously, but it's something to look into. Thanks. -- "Our (...) (24 years ago, 21-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) I have not done large-scale "production" work with 0.2.x, really, so I may be vastly incorrect. Ah-hah. The legOS homepage (at least) indicates that you are correct.
