This is mostly stuff we're making calls on since our last post (which was like ten seconds ago).
So, we're going 250,000 updates for each treatment (equals will not be rewarded). And then, we'll switch to equals being rewarded (and nothing else being rewarded) for 50,000 updates.
When we do our bottlenecks, we'll do random kill-offs since there is no spatial structure to our experiment.
Decrease mutation rate - Art says default is high.
We don't need to do competition trials since we're doing the 50k updates with equals being rewarded.
Erkin: Generating randomized environment files. Art suggested making a pool of environment files (maybe 500 of them). Naming scheme: environmentxxx.cfg in which "xxx" is a number.
Emily: Generate a script to choose an environment file to use for the events file. eventx.cfg
April: Set up avida.cfg (100x100 grid, mut. rate=.003) and make iterate for 50 consecutive runs. Needs to open a avida.cfg file and choose a new eventsx.cfg file.
Concluding remarks: None.
