Yes, this is interesting idea, which requires further investigation. However, it has some drawbacks:
But, anyway, this is good idea and it can be studied further.
Thank you for suggestion.
Yes you are right, keeping the current champion biases the search. I saw it first in BoxCar2D which is in flash, but was re-used in a HTML5-canvas copy here: https://rednuht.org/genetic_cars_2/
It is called "Elite clones".
Thanks for taking time to think of this with me! I might try my hand at coding some of my issues if I think I understand your engine good enough
Suggestion in the title. Add a configuration to keep champions (N best of generation, or N best of each species) between generations, so we can keep the best organism and not lose their "winner" genome in breeding.
