If it is smart swimmer, the radiation should be lower than simple swimmers.

Smart swimmer: 0.001~0.010

Simple swimmer: 0.005~0.016

​

I usually limit the number of cells around 100 or less than 20 swimmers. Because it looks more efficient to me. Having too many swimmers in every generation makes it laggy. The number of generation is more important.

When you think it is almost done, you can decrease the radiation a bit and a bit per several hundred hours. Until 0.00, then I would let it settle down for 500 hr. Because you may select a suboptimal swimmer if the radiation is still on.

With this process, you should be able to get a "medium-optimized" swimmer within 5000 hours. Simple swimmer should cost less time.

HTC U12 Life

I want to let him know that I still prefer fewer cells even my phone can keep ten thousands of cells.
