The Online Life-Like CA Soup Search is a collaborative online project designed to find interesting patterns in Life-like cellular automata by watching the evolution of random initial configurations (known as soups). In particular, random soups are evolved until they stabilize, and all the resulting stable patterns are uploaded to the server and catalogued. If the initial soup lived for an exceptionally long time then it is also uploaded to the server.
The process of contributing to the soup search is simple -- you just have to leave a script running in Golly in the background on your computer! The current version of the script is available for download below. For detailed instructions detailing how to run the script, please see the download page. If you still have questions or problems, please read the frequently asked questions or ask on the forums.
