@green crank up hazard remediation and self replication, eventually new stuff will happen

need to get that self-replication going all by itself

yeah, I've got self-replication at 5 and got the bonus thing to improve hazard remediation. I've launched 3.21 thousand probes, and there's now 379.8~ thousand descendants, so they're definitely ramping up, but haven't hit whatever critical mass is needed yet, I guess. I'll just keep launching the probes...

@green @chalcedony@octodon.social hmmm, put hazard remediation up a little further at the expense of a point or two of self replication, in my experience the swarm only really starts to self replicate properly with that at like 4

@Thaminga @chalcedony@octodon.social okay--self-rep at 4, hazard remediation at 4. I'll keep clicking the launch button and see what happens. ;)
