There's even a block pull reaction:

Also we could try to support other rule spaces like BSFKL by not using b, s, f, k and l in the INT notations for other neighbourhoods. So I still think that my notation is better. Personally I think it'd be better if only perfectly formatted bsfkl strings were accepted (Bnumbers/Snumbers/Fnumbers/K...

o$2o4b2o$2o4b2o$o!

This just evolves into blocks.

...and therefore it simulates a 1D rule in which such a configuration would evolve into the 1D equivalent of blocks.

That diagonal spaceship looks way too fast to be c/8...

I also found another distinct new ship, a (2,1)c/6, in the same rule, bringing the total number of naturally-occurring spaceships to 6.

Code: Select all

x = 8, y = 5, rule = R2,C0,M1,S7..10,B7..8,NM

Is that not a camelship?

As for Sierpinski, the .mcl file says #D A simple Sierpinski gasket drawer. A dead cell comes to life #D if it has a single living neighbor that is either its W or S neighbor. #D In all other cases, it stays dead. All living cells survive.

Yeah it was only just added the other day: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1622&p=73368#p73364

This lookslikeapartial thing:

Should we consider this the canonical notation now?

Obviously it won't, I'd already random filled it and that wasn't showing anything either.

Solid ships probably exist in hexagonal rules as well, but scaling the original SlowShip rule to fit a hexagonal neighbourhood doesn't seem to have done anything helpful: x = 26, y = 26, rule = R10,C0,M1,S115..196,B100..198,NH 13bo$15bo$12b5o$11b5obo$10b7obo$9b9o$8b10o$4bo2b12o$3bob15o$4b17o$b10o 4b...

Could those be added as in-viewer buttons then for parity with Golly? A 180-degree rotate button could also be helpful. Speaking of Golly, I've noticed some weird behaviour woth copying stuff from bounded grids. A completely centered pattern can be copied out of Golly as so: https://media.discordapp...
