Blockhead

[aggrazel]

My favorite track is blockhead.

3.0+ broke the old cars, they don't really even move down the track anymore. I doubt a "tunneling" strategy will work in the new update.

I've been running a thing for 150 generations now but still haven't made it to the end, closest I have is 184.3.

Here's one thats 182.6 but its my favorite because I think it looks hilarious:

I think the tunneling strategy will still work with a bigger car with less wheels. The wheels really weight it down now.

I've got one that gets to 210, then appears to time out. The car is going strong, and there's time on the clock, so I don't know what's up. The wheels are off the "ground" for an extended period of time. I wonder if this causes an early time out.

I get 123.5 when I run this (v 3.1 in chrome on a Mac) or 123.4 (v 3.1 in Firefox on a Mac) or 67.1 (v 3.1 in Firefox on XP). I've also been having problems reproducing some of my own results. Sometimes the differences are small, sometimes large, like a missing wheel.

210 or 102? It gets terminated at 102 at 0:29 for me.

Hand made.... decorated. Are we going to see this fabulous bride of all boxcars evolve? Maybe faster, but certainly not prettier. Mysteriously named after her block crushing muse, this baby is all about glamour.

Huh. Now it also terminates at 102 for me. Must be the copy-paste genetic rot that sometimes happens. Now that I see that the max score is 210, I may have had a finisher, and just never noticed the finish line. I'll have to let it evolve to see if it can reconverge.
