I *really* wish I could put the code up here, but there's too much of it for one message. I'm reimplimenting an old Web feature--Technosphere. It may still be out there, but I wanted to write my own. For those that don't know, Technosphere is a virtual environment in which creatures (small AIs) exist and interact. Unfortunately, none of my computers has the RAM to run the whole thing (holding the map, tracking the creatures, running the intelligences) so I did a little pseudo-distributed computing work with my home network and sockets. Now I have one computer holding the map, another tracking the creatures, and a third controlling the interaction between the two.
