This is a new class of cellular automata that I created. All of them start from an initial condition of either 2 cells next to each other or a block of 4 cells. They then expand to cover the whole board in a way similar to the big bang and form many complex patterns lasting for thousands of generations. The only rules that I know of that I didn't invent that are also part of this class of rules are brians brain and star wars. I have spent over 100 hours in MCell looking for these types of rules and I have alot of them. Since I know you guys don't like MCell I decided to post them in video form instead of rule form to save you the trouble of downloading MCell and entering them. These rules were mostly made in the rule table format in MCell with one of them being in weighted life. I have alot of rules like this so depending on the interest in this topic I will post more.
Big bang cellular automata
Re: Big bang cellular automata
345/2/4 (star wars) has its own thread already. Quite a lot can be done in this rule.
For your other rules, could you make a rule table/ some other way of sharing the rule? Otherwise we don't know what the rule actually is

Re: Big bang cellular automata
Even though alot of things can be done in star wars alot more things can be done in rules that modify the star wars rule using the rule table format. Unlike most of the CA community I don't like looking for patterns. Instead I look for rules. Since you asked me to share some of my rules here they are. Keep in mind they only work in MCell and not golly. Here they are:
1. 1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,2,2,2,1,1,1,2,2,2,0,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,0,0,4,4,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,5,5,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1
2. 1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,2,2,2,1,1,2,1,2,2,0,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,0,0,4,4,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,5,5,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1
3. 1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,2,2,2,1,1,2,1,2,2,0,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,0,0,4,4,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,5,5,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,6,6,6,6,6,0,0,7,7,7,7,7,7,7,7,0,0,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2
4. 1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,8,0,0,0,2,2,2,1,1,2,1,2,2,0,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,0,0,9,4,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,9,5,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,6,6,6,6,6,0,0,7,7,7,7,7,7,7,7,0,0,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,0,0,2,2,1,1,2,1,2,2,0,0,10,10,10,10,10,10,10,10,0,0,5,5,1,1,5,1,5,5
5. 1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,9,0,8,0,2,2,2,1,1,2,1,2,2,0,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,0,0,9,4,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,9,5,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,6,6,6,6,6,0,0,7,7,7,7,7,7,7,7,0,0,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,0,0,2,2,1,1,2,1,2,2,0,0,2,2,1,1,2,1,2,2
Make sure that when you start these rules you start with either 2 cells next to each other or a block of 4 cells. I don't want to post all the rules that I have at once because then people would probably only look at a few of them. If you want to see more rules all you have to do is ask.
