NASC Auction will open in...

Read the rules first :)
NASC auction is OPEN!!

Heres a new game. For the evolution lovers.

Official DNA Hacking Guide

Okay, this is where I'm going to assign actions to the variables of the DNA code. This is a work in progress, be on the lookout for updates.

A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L,M,N,O,P,Q,R,S,T,U,V,W,X,Y,Z,A2,B2

A = The height to which your plant will grow before splitting into multiple branches (goes to 100.0)
B = Hexadecimal color code for the stem of the plant
C = The number of branches/blooms your plant will split into (integer with no apparent limit, large numbers will slow the computer)
D = affects curvature/height (thanks ak)
E = something about branch length or plant height....Large numbers seem to grow taller plants
G = The starting diameter of the stalk
H = the rate at which the stalk will widen (1 is min)
K = controls pit size. .1 will give your flower an inner set of petals rather than a pit. .1 to 1.5 controls pit size
L = Determines how many sets of petals each flower will have (no limit, but 10 is big). Your petals will change color from the pit color to the outer petal color.
T = Affects petal outline color. 1 will outline the petal in a lighter shade, 0 will outline in the same color, -1 will outline in black
Y = inner petal count
Z = outer petal count
A2 = inner petal roundness -10 to 10
B2 = outer petal roundness -10 to 10
 
I think D is the curve (vinelike) of the plant

3.7, 0x320275, 8, 5, 46.3, 0.4, 1.3, 1.2, 23.4, 72.8, 0.0, 3, 0.0, 0.2, 0.1, 0.1, 3.0, 0.1, 0.6, -0.6, 0xafb9ba, 0xe9813c, 5.9, 5.7, 11, 8, 2.0, 1.5
 
I dont think thats what D does, i was messing around with the numers and didnt notice any thing different

like on sunflower it doesnt change the curve much at all.
 
100.0, 0x320275, 35, 5, 46.3333, 9.0, 1.3, 1.2, 23.4, 72.8, 0.0, 3, 0.0, 0.2, 0.1, 0.1, 3.0, 0.1, 0.6, -0.6, 0xafb9ba, 0xe9813c, 5.9, 5.7, 11, 8, 2.0, 1.5

I edited someones, made it REALLY tall.

Now THIS tree has beautiful flowers:

100.0, 0x320275, 35, 5, 46.3333, 9.0, 1.3, 1.2, 23.4, 72.8, 0.0, 3, 0.0, 0.2, 0.1, 0.1, 3.0, 0.1, 0.6, -0.6, 0xafb9ba, 0xe9813c, 5.9, 5.7, 11, 8, 2.0, 1.5

Big Pom Tree: 100.0, 0x320275, 15, 15, 10.3333, 5.0, 90.5, 35.2, 23.4, 52.8, 10.0, 3, 55.0, 11.2, 13.1, 11.1, 3.0, 0.1, 0.6, -0.6, 0xafb9ba, 0xe9813c, 59.9, 59.7, 35, 20, 7.5, 3.0
 
Okay, I looked at the ste and wanted to cross a butterwort with a VFT, so I can re-create a potty-mouthed, incessantly hungry, ebonic-speaking CP. I just couldn't figure out how.
 
after running alnight

67.5, 0xdae8fe, 10, 12, 45.1, 1.0, 2.3, 1.5, 46.7, 90.0, 1.0, 5, 0.1, 0.4, 0.0, 0.5, 2.8, -0.0, 0.8, -0.1, 0x100d0e, 0x5a5b5a, 9.8, 14.6, 11, 11, 0.3, 0.8

Heres how it looks after 2 days
67.2, 0x0, 9, 30, 21.4, 0.8, 1.9, 1.4, 80.0, 46.1, 0.0, 2, 0.6, 0.0, 0.1, 0.5, 3.1, 0.1, -0.5, 0.6, 0x4201c, 0xab79ab, 13.5, 18.8, 14, 19, 0.1, 0.2
 
Evolv-O-Matic for an hour or two came up with this, I was surprised! Looks like a vine with pretty black flowers:

67.2, 0x0, 9, 30, 21.4, 0.8, 1.9, 1.4, 80.0, 46.1, 0.0, 2, 0.6, 0.0, 0.1, 0.5, 3.1, 0.1, -0.5, 0.6, 0x4201c, 0xab79ab, 13.5, 18.8, 14, 19, 0.1, 0.2
 
Drwurm, U controls pit color and V controls outer petal color. W effects the general flower size and petal spacing. X effects petal length
here's a hexadecimal guide for those who are VERY ADDICTED!!!!!!!
