Understanding DumpGenotypeColorGrid

[zwuckl]

Hi there,

for demonstration purposes, I am trying to visualize the color grid of avida-viewer in hardware using an Arduino and an RGB LED matrix. While tinkering on how to capture the grid I came across the "DumpGenotypeColorGrid" switch in events.cfg. However, I cannot figure out the meaning of the values dumped in the respective files as I am unable to map them 1:1 to the graphical output of avida-viewer when inspected side-by-side and also don't understand their format.

Could you please provide some info on the format/encoding of these values? Or did I get the switch wrong and the files are not actually what I am looking for?

Ideally, I'd like to get some RGB-encoded color values that I can simply parse and forward to my Arduino via serial connection.

Thanks a lot in advance!
Nico
