Re: Yet another search program (with hexagons!)

I just modified it to formulate the evolutionary rule as a z3 function ­— search might be a little speedier now. Upcoming features: Ability to specify a rule range rather than a single rule, like LLS — this will allow asking questions such as this example: which D₆ -symmetric hexagonal rules support...

Re: Yet another search program (with hexagons!)

I see that the way the search is set up requires a live cell on the top row, which means the x dimension of the search regulates the search run time in the same way the width does for other -find programs. I'm not sure it's so smart — it blithely finds patterns of multiple non-interacting parts, wh...

Yet another search program (with hexagons!)

The goods I was tired of not having a search program for hexagonal rules, so i hacked this up over the past few days. It's essentially a z3 driver: it declares a variable per cell and plugs in the constraints, and z3 emits patterns! Cheers! P.S. It already disproved a few conjectures of mine about ...

Re: Non-totalistic hex rules

I discovered an interesting rule, B2o45/S2o45 a few years ago. Gliders and simple oscillators are extremely common; still lifes are quite uncommon (but possible).
