Symmetry problem

Post by lifeisawesome » December 23rd, 2017, 6:26 am

In RoadMap, the "reflect" symmetry is bold, which means it's supported in Golly.
However, this rule table gives an "unsupported symmetries" error.

Code: Select all

@RULE testrule

@TABLE

n_states:2
neighborhood:Moore
symmetries:reflect

1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0
0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1
0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,1
0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,1
--Szymon Bartosiewicz
favorite pattern:

Code: Select all

x = 2, y = 2, rule = B25/S3a
2o$2o!

I'm pretty sure it meant rotate4reflect or rotate8reflect, not just 'reflect'.
