B13/S

Post by ebcube » October 1st, 2011, 9:07 am

Starting with a single dot, this rule creates an intricate mosaic using only five distinct "pieces" every (2^n) - 1 generations, separated by a simple margin, leaving absolutely no holes. These are those pieces:

Code: Select all

x = 28, y = 7, rule = B13/S

At first glance, that reminded me of the Replicator rule.

Something a bit cooler:

Code: Select all

#CXRLE Pos=-6,-4
x = 9, y = 9, rule = B13/S

At least it's symmetrical... :D

I think the evolution of a single dot is indeed identical in this rule and Replicator; B5, B7, and S<odd> neighborhoods never come up here.
