It will be as follows: Gamblerobacter koinos —> Gamblerobacter koinos archenea —> Gamblerobacter koinos mesonea —> Gamblerobacter koinos neonara —> Gamblerobacter neotia
I will change the genus after 5 species changes.
Edit: These are just bacteria, right? I’m just hoping I’m not entirely wrong.

For the sake of my sanity, I am thinking that when the fourth change occur, species will split off. When I tried to simulate each mutation step, I got something like 35 plus unique splits, and I did not even get to the fourth species-splitting step! What have I gotten myself into…

How long do you want the FG to last?

I am not sure. As long it remain manageable.

When would it become unmanagable?

When it takes me several days to mutate everything, but even then, it also depends on how much time I will have to continue it.

Right, as basing off that one FG you based this one on, you’d need to write a bunch of descriptions for the many species which’d evolve in this world…

Yup. I am thinking of pasting the description of the stats, since I will be using the actual game to make these microorganisms.

Oh, so we will start off as single-cytoplasms, right?

Yes. However, due to the random nature of the mutations, there is no guarantee that the next organism created will be viable. This is why I am thinking of branching off organisms so that players can choose another organism in the same descendant clade should their organism go extinct.

So if I was to register a species, I would initially just be a cytoplasm and when “the next round” comes, you’d give me a few possible mutations to the cytoplasm, out of which I can choose one to control from this point on, right?

This is the basic idea. I might change the number of times I mutate things per round to make it more manageable for me.

How important are the species names we give to them, especially now that all players who join will pretty much have the same organisms?

It is your organism. They all start out of the same, but they will diverge. Plus, it would get boring pretty fast if everything was named with a number. I am planning to include some extra organelles that can be mutated to make things more interesting.

How will you simulate the organelles so that it still account to the ingame rules?

I will just subsitute those as the nearest closing-looking in-game organelles. Also, fudging numbers a little bit. The rules for determining best-fit might change.
Also, I had to make an entire different ruleset for me to use when playing as the AI. Like, actually behaving as the AI with using the organelles.

Yes. It will. I am thinking of including an additional behavior (not gregariousness). I will see how it turns out.

There are already 5 behaviour sliders, are you sure more are needed at the moment when we are just cells?

Considering Players can decide to ignore the behavior slides for their species when playing a regular game, it is more important for the AI cells. This new behavior will be especially important for intraspecific competition, assuming the conditions are met. But again, I might change/scrape the additional behavior later on.
