I'm really interested in having complex symbiotic relationships in the game although thinking of how many ways 2 different organisms could benefit and come into a mutually beneficial pairing boggles my mind.
My questions to all are;
Is it a planned feature of thrive/has it already been dismissed and i haven't seen that thread?
how many others are interested in this?
how would you propose the mechanics could work in each section of the game and how would the AI identify a mutually beneficial relationship?
what effect would/could this have as you progress through the stages (ie will your symbiote from aware be melded into your society in civilization) ?
Will 2 AI species be able to become symbiotic or is this solely reserved for the players species?

I couldn't agree more. May be there won't need to be a special system for it. If an animal's behaviour is possibly passed on as well the those who evolved to be a parasite or the like will just evolve naturally by surviving more and being more likely to pass on their adaptations? Again, not a programmer
