no idea if its the algorithm or anything, but i consistently get creatures that will simply tense certain muscles and slide across the floor, and those are selected as the best creature regardless of the settings i choose. the horse i posted in another thread actually did it a lot with previous iterations, a lot of creatures i copied from the other threads to see them evolve also do this.
when this happens i noticed the muscles will only ever tense/contract and not alternate between the two, so 3 muscles might stay red while others stay blue, and never switch. is there a way to fix this with the neural setting or the generation/breeding settings that i'm missing, or is it a legitimate thing that should be looked into? it's so weird that it will just jitter or slide across the floor and be considered for fitness/rank proportional as the best option, which is annoying because its very difficult to actually work it out of that cycle in the editor screen lol
