Reading up on the documentation I could find (basically the download page here), cannies have three new lobes which way .
Looking in the genetic kit though, what I'm seeing is this:
1. One of the lobes isn't connected to anything. Is it just there to attach emitters/receptors to or something?
2. The other lobes take inputs from the drive lobe and use them to boost the neuron activation in the stim source lobe. Except it only does this to neurons that are already firing in stim source and stim source is winner takes all, so it looks like it's only going to be firing one neuron by the time the new lobes get to it anyway. So I'm not really clear on how this is actually doing anything different from just passing it through to Attention :S |

Info on the regulator lobe is at the bottom
I have no reason to believe this, other than what you just said. But it's possible that winner take all doesn't stop firing as much as silence it. E.g. A dendrite connected to a silenced neuron would report that neuron is not firing, but according to it's SV rule: it is. |
