Example Class Analysis : Regeneration

Responsibilities:1. Regenerate new creatures2. Give genetic memory to Offspring

Attributes:1. Creature must be full size2. Energy level should be above normal3. Attribute ReadyToReproduce = True4. Defined Constant:

MatureRadius = MatureSize/2GrowthWait= (LifeSpan/2)/(MatureRadius – InitialRadius)

Successful Test Result

Ohio University

Important Featured Strategies

Decent Path Finding 1) Be able to chase its prey through a maze of plants without collisions in straight line

Good Hunting Strategy 1) Knows when to speed up for your prey, when to

change to a different gear 2) Good understanding of their environment

Good Defending Strategy 1) Calculate the "odds" of a successful fight 2) Assesses whether to chase, ignore or flee. 3) Good strategy for dodging other stronger carnivores

Ohio University

Important Featured Strategies (cont’)

Good Energy Management 1) Need energy to acquire a very limited food supply. 2) Expend about as much energy in a chase as they got from the kill. 3) Stands still before breed.  

Communication Between TeamWorks Know how to hunt in groups

Reproduction and Evolve Strategy 1) Understand the rules on sickness 2) Mechanism that inhibits the carnivore's breeding 3) Algorithm that each Teamwork monitors the number of Creatures 4) Determines the ideal number of offspring   5) Random variation of constants between generations.
