Star Wars Lite (34-ik5e/2ace/3)
After a long time playing around with Star Wars I decided to try and find the "simplest" rule to support the same kind of signal circuitry, this is the one I found most interesting. All the things I build are based around these "double crosses" circuits. x = 54, y = 6, rule = 34-ik5e/2ace/3 2.A4.A4....

You can do this with a rule table, using the neighborhood Moore_radius2: https://code.google.com/p/ruletablerepository/wiki/RoadMap I don't think it's implemented in the current version of Golly. It would be interesting to know if, say, Von Neumann with radius 2 could be implemented in the normal M...

I don't understand very well how weights work. When it's set to 0, the neighborhood is not counted, and that's how you emulated the Hex rule. When it's set to 1 it's like a totalistic rule's neighborhood. But how does it work with higher numbers? However thanks for your work, I'm so happy that we fi...
