Add Guides on the main menu that explain the various simulation options and how they work (e.g., brain types, robot types, and environment types) New simulation option: "Evolve activation functions", allowing evolution to change the activation functions of neurons New neuroevolut
Animats can now produce and hear vocalizations. They can control pitch and amplitude of the vocalization, and evolution changes fixed characteristics of the vocalization.
Plants: Plants now reproduce and evolve Evolution: MAP-Elites algorithm implemented to improve the speed and efficiency of evolutionary search New Neuron Type Available: "Leaky integrate-and-fire neurons" are now an option for brain neurons, allowing a more realistic brain type N
New Simulation Option: Evolve robot bodies New Brain Type: Reservoir computing Bug fixes
Plants now grow in the simulation. A basic flora has been added to replace the plain food cubes. The flora/plants grow branches as they gain nutrition. The animats can eat them to gain energy.
There is a now an option to run the voxel world processing and rendering on the GPU. This may help with performance when simulating larger worlds.
You can now save your progress in the simulation, and load it later to resume your progress.
ERAIASON is now available on the iOS App Store. The Android version is available on itch.io Check out the iOS version here:
There is now the option to augment the neural network with central pattern generators (CPGs). These help the robots to move rhythmically. The CPG type can be selected in the "New Simulation" panel in the main menu.
+ ERAIASON is now available on mobile platforms. Android version is available now on itch.io, coming soon to Google Play Store and iOS. + You can now select from 11 languages. The full list of available languages is: English Arabic Chinese French German Hebrew Hindi Japanese Norw
Mac and Linux versions are now available on Steam! Please be patient while they are brought up to parity with the Windows version.
