Evolver-keeps-stopping

What a painful screenshot to read. Can you choose PNG when saving screen captures?

Click the [Evolver] Preferences button. Let's get a PNG of those Preferences!

Just curious, why is PNG image better?

It's interesting but this again is a poor quality screenshot that looks like originated in JPEG and converted to PNG.

Well, that one isn't any better, but it's good enough. Eugene just doesn't like to see blurry images. Me? Everything is blurry to me anyway :)

I'd wait for Glitch to help out here, but he's sort of busy with a hurricane at the moment. The only thing that stands out to me is that you selected all genes, including Neural Net. Do you have have Neuro-Lab installed and does it have trading NNs?

Anything in the WL8 log? The Evolver Log tab? Nothing's jumping out at me here.

I just ran it again with neurolab unchecked and it stopped after generation 2.

I do have neurolab installed, but I've never done anything with it other than install it.

Do you have any third-party extensions installed?

I have finantic extensions installed.

the evolver is running now, I have no idea why. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

I have had issues with it stopping ever since I installed fanatic power genes finantic.PowerGenes, but only when alpha is checked. It's odd but I've checked and unchecked enough boxes to get it to work 90% of the time

I took a break from running the evolver and started again this weekend and it still stopping on me.

You might want to try de-installing third party extensions temporarily just to see if we can narrow this down.
