Evolutionary Wall Jump
U-shaped Verlet creatures with six muscles and a small neural net evolve to jump a wall, sensing strain, height, tilt and wall distance. A slider sets sim speed.
Two experiments in neural control, muscles, friction and obstacles.

U-shaped Verlet creatures with six muscles and a small neural net evolve to jump a wall, sensing strain, height, tilt and wall distance. A slider sets sim speed.
U-shaped Verlet-physics creatures with six muscles evolve a small neural net to clear a wall, rewarded for distance and height; a speed slider goes to 50x.
