Re: Rules 2 transitions from Life

Adding B0: B01c3/S23 - Most things evolve into giant p2, or p4 oscillators, sometimes having this p6 oscillator inside them: x = 2, y = 3, rule = B01c3/S23 2o2$2o! B01e3/S23 - Already explored B02a3/S23 - Already explored Only new pattern I found is this p24: x = 4, y = 5, rule = B02a3/S23 o$b3o$2o$...

Anyway, here is a rebus I made in mspaint:
<snip>
Thousand?
Yes. Explanation: The "You" is in old english font, which means it should be "Thou". Combine that with the sand and you get thousand.
I'll come up with a new one later

Re: Posts that are related to ConwayLife or other cellular autonoma but otherwise random

I tried to make Hillstretcher able to have gliders (it failed, S3q makes it explode but if you exclude S3q you can't have hillstretchers) and I managed to end up at LeapLife with S4i added. I ran a soup, and

Re: Thread for your script-related questions

I know of a script that turns patterns to apgcodes, but is there a script that turns apgcodes to patterns? This script by Ilmari Karonen seems to fit the bill. I haven't tested it, but the comments show a good level of awareness of the different apgcode variants. Tangential note: I knew the name "I...

Configure apgsearch 5.0? Have you read the instructions?
I did not. I forgot that it was on gitlab and had a readme.md because I had issues with make and g++ (which are now fixed).
