      I use a very deliberate process of making too many agents train at once for my machine to properly record at all and then proceed to delete a bunch at a time until I get a decent blend of learning speed VS watchable recording footage.
      Deliberate might not the the right word, maybe completely arbitrary.

      @@Dingus_Labs you could let it run at a stuffed speed but have some form of fps counter that allows you to run a seperate code that auto edits the speed of your recording to make it run at a normal speed, then you could just have the amount of agents that makes the fastest training speed (cos if you have to many then the speed would go so low that it would overall go slower) but this is just a dum idea so yea, but it could get rid of those freezes that happen every now and then (you could also just run it at a lowered speed that it wont go below and again, use editing to make it ALL faster to look normal)

    I think it would also be interesting if you gave a quick explanation on what data you give Dingus to work with especially when it's something more unique like a forklift, like: How does he know if he has a create in the first place? How does he see the ground around him? Does he know the difference between the floor and a boulder, if so, how? Etc..

    You wake up on a blank platform floating through a meaningless void. All you have is a forklift, three boxes, and shelves. You take a while to look around and try to find out where you are and what is happening. After a while of searching for anything you could come by, you fall asleep.
    You wake up. Perhaps it was a strange dream? Again, though, you find yourself lying on a meaningless island in a bottomless void. You find yourself curious, and start throwing things off the edge to see how high you are . . . but they just keep falling.
    The next day(? You really can’t be sure) you notice that everything has returned to where you found it. Strange. After a bit more curiosity, you decide to get brave and start poking around the sides. Big mistake. You misstep, catching your foot and falling. You mentally prepare for the worst.
    But strangely, you wake up once again. Everything is back where you found it. “Really?” you ask. With your newfound sense of courage, you work yourself up and jump off the ledge.
    But strangely, you wake up once again. Everything is back where you found it. Clearly, this will be more difficult than you thought. You gather yourself and take note of your surroundings . . . which isn’t much. You look to the forklift; “Hell. Not like there’s anything else to do.” You get in, turn the key, and-to your surprise-the engine kicks into action. You test your new wheels. Suddenly, the voice of God bellows down, “Excellent.” You feel strangely refreshed and satisfied. With that, you decide to go to bed, oddly excited for tomorrow.
    You wake up once again. Everything is back where you found it. You get back into your forklift. Suddenly, the voice of God bellows down, “Excellent.” You feel strangely refreshed and satisfied. You get even more curious. You drive towards a box, and again you feel replenished. This must be good. But before you can do much more, you fall asleep.
    For months, you learn more about your cruel God and what He wants of you. Every day you move the boxes to the shelves, only for them to return to their original places the very next day. However, every night you go to bed satisfied and content. You know what you are supposed to do, and you’re getting pretty good at it.
    One day, everything is different. You wake up and run to your forklift, when you see something amazing: your new home has changed. At first you are thrilled for a new job. But you look around and notice three boxes, the shelves, and a precarious tightrope separating them from you.
    Your cruel Deity laughs. You must stock the shelves. It is all you have.

  • @Roobotics
    @Roobotics Před 2 měsíci +3

    I would say driving with the forks all the way up always shouldn't be the optimal score. But rather some concept of load stability multiplied by lift height combined perhaps, the only times he completes the last level is a lucky tumble and recovery, but if he'd kept control of the load the whole time he would have a higher score if he learns to drop it to a safe height to maintain the carry. What if there are specified 'height' zones he needs to carry it over or the box gets deleted?

      @@Dingus_Labs this is just a suggestion for the twist you want, you could have seeker dingus and hider dingus’s but they are mixed in with a bunch of essentially npcs walking around, the hiders would have little hiding spots (like trash cans or bushes) but also they have to do tasks around town while being hunted by the seeker (seeker could be 1 or more depending on how big you would go with it) the tasks they do would make them obvious to spot so they would have learn when it’s safe etc but they have a time limit so they can’t delay forever.

    on the second enviromnent, the only explanation is that the a.i got used to spin entirely before locking in on the objective, that it passed to the next generation of the neural system.
    i know i may be talking nothing with nothing but if you realize well, on the first enviroment when 'dingus' were lifting a crate + it back were towards to the objective line, he would fully clockwise spin even if spinning conter clockwise would be quickier, 5:45 you see as he lifts that crate, he turns at same time, when he finishes lifting he turned way too much, probably he got confused when realized he turned too much + now possessing fully the crate, so he SPINS aaaall again to position himself and then start doing the shenaningans as usual.

      Frankly I'm not an expert, I wouldn't be confident advising on what is better.

      That one is odd, my gut says it wouldn't get confused about that because the actual shelf area is tagged differently, so Dingus should not associate the elavated area with the shelf area.

    I love this video. I just wished you'd have made the wheels a factor. I think it bugged me he could still drive 100% with only two wheels. I understand it's harder to code because just one simple body is easiest, but still.

      I hedged on that, spent a while wondering if I should have made proper wheels. Will likely revisit that idea though because I've got a few vehicle based ideas I definitely want to explore.

    I’ve got an idea how about Dingus tries to learn to be a train driver I mean there’s plenty of things that could happen and be obstacles for Dingus
