Change the following text of the Rule Death from

Whenever a Lifeform’s status is changed to Dead, each other Lifeform with status Alive gains 3 Nourishment.

to

Whenever a Lifeform’s status is changed to Dead, each other Lifeform with status Alive gains 3 Nourishment, plus DNA and Complexity equal to the newly Dead Lifeform’s respective values of DNA and Complexity divided by N, rounded down, where N is the number of Lifeforms with status Alive.

Delete the 4th and 5th sentences in Rule Feeding and insert in their place “To do so, e rolls DICEX in the GNDT, where X is the number of Lifeforms with Status of Alive + 1.  The Feeding Lifeform then counts down Y rows starting from the first row in the GNDT, skipping Lifeforms with Status of Dead.  The Lifeform (or the Gene Pool) corresponding to this row becomes the target of the Feeding attempt.”

Delete the 3rd sentence in Rule Feeding.

Change the final two sentences in the first paragraph of Trait Carnivore to “That is, when the Lifeform makes a Feeding attempt, e rolls DICEX for target selection, where X is the number of active Lifeforms with status of Alive. E then counts down to the Yth row in the GNDT (skipping The Gene Pool and Lifeforms with Status of Dead), where Y is the result of the DICEX roll.”
