automatically changing simulation parameters #1

Closed chrxh closed 3 years ago

chrxh commented 3 years ago

It seems that changing the simulation parameters from time to time can support evolutionary adaptation to overcome local optima. A mechanism should be implemented that automatically changes the parameters but keeps an eye on the working replicators. If the number of replicators decreases too much, the parameters that ensure more friendly conditions should be used for a while.

A simple solution has been developed in feature branch simulation_changer and merge to the developer branch.
