Re: MetaLife

The idea I had was to make a rule that had all the properties of life (except for those involving the period of patterns), and then modify it in such a way that Life meta-patterns were never affected and make it have its own chaotic nature, so natural patterns could occur, some of which would be Lif...

So I have recently created a rule that has Life unit cells, where the OFF state is a blank canvas, so that any lifepattern can be transferred to this rule and is still of the same type, i.e. the glider is still a spaceship, and the blinker and block are still oscillators. The unit cells are 3 by 3, ...

Re: My patterns

This interaction of rakes and a pulsar puffer produces a lot of chaos, mainly due to a pulsar fuse that can occur and emit gliders. The fuse goes at a speed of 252c/558, or 14c/31 (I think), so it can never catch up to the puffer. x = 57, y = 60, rule = B3/S23 37b3o$36bo2bo$39bo4b3o$39bo4bo2bo4bo$36...
