VOLVE 4.0
Cut, Copy, & Paste Organisms
Organisms can be cut or copied from one simulation and pasted into another. Also you can delete an organism (Del key).
- Copy Organism:
Select an organism by left clicking on it. Ctrl-C will copy the organism to the clip board. The simulation is not altered. - Cut Organism:
Select an organism by left clicking on it. Ctrl-X will cut the organism from the universe (it will be removed), and the organism will be placed in the clip board. - Paste Organism:
If you have cut or copied an organism, then you can press Ctrl-V to paste the organism into the current simulation. The organism is pasted somehwere near the center of your simulation. - Delete Organism:
Select an organism by left clicking on it. Pressing Del will delete the organism from the universe.
Why do this?
If you find a clever organism and wish to experiment on it in seperate universe, you can use the copy/paste features to do so. Also you might want to see how successful a creature from one simulation is, when transplanted into another simulation.(you will also find the Tweak Energy and Move Organism features useful for this kind of experimentation.)
