sim.blog.sateda.dev
An artificial-life simulator built on conservative, biologically-faithful physics — targeting emergent trophic webs and predation-driven multicellularity. These are the locked design documents: the world, the rules, the genome, and the constants that couple them. Design charter first, values later.
← all of blog.sateda.devThe field lattice, diffusing resource fields, POM particles, light, and the benthic floor.
The step-loop physics: DEB-style reserve/structure, Michaelis-Menten uptake, low-Re diffusion.
The sensory inputs and effector outputs — metabolic, trophic, social, and movement.
Per-tick ordering: the PhysiCell-inspired sub-step sequence that advances the world.
The recurrent gene-regulatory network — node cap, wiring, mutation and duplication.
The coupling map, unit basis, and orderings — what couples to what, before any fitted numbers.
When multicellular grouping pays — and when it doesn't — under scarcity and resource heterogeneity.
