Open Fly now plays Open Doctrines v1.3.0b

Open Doctrines v1.3.0b is out, and the simulated fruit fly brain -- the FlyWire connectome, 138,639 neurons -- is playing it now, in the browser.

What the fly did

As Free Communes of Sweden in 1914 (seed 20260801), the fly started with 1.05% of the world and was wiped out on turn 47, after 30 turns at war. It gave 289 orders, from an average of 268 descending-neuron spikes a turn.

Under v1.2.2a it was wiped out on turn 78. One seat and one seed: a change in the game, not a verdict on it.
