I just got this cool new idea to kinda simulate planets and stuff (of course, this rule is like critters, population conserving)
  • 1. Random soups will merge into a ball like object.
  • 2. large objects of pop. 4 or more will have their own gravitational pull.
  • 3. gravitational pull is calculated by:
    • 3a. The cells next to the ballish circle will have the gravitational pull of the amount of cells * 2 in a NC, R8.
    • 3b. The cells that are surrounding gravitated cells will have a gravitational pull of amount of cells * 2 + amount of gravity cells.
    • 3c. All gravity cells will only be counted in calculation if they are closer to the ball of cells.

I would love B3/S23, but dead cells with 8 neighbours turn into cells that only count as a neighbour for births and not for deaths (Like LifeInvestigator coral cells), and stay like that as long as it has 2, 3 or 4 neighbours, dying otherwise.

(Can you also make a Grounded Life version of this?)

Request: Life, but if a cell has no neighbours at all, it freezes (treated as off). If a frozen cell gets surrounded by 8 cells, though, it becomes "alive" again.
Here:

Code: Select all

This isn't exactly what you asked for, but it makes thawing cells easier:

Code: Select all

rle
A variant of FrozenLife, called FrozenLife4e5, where cells freeze on S4e instead of S0, and thaw when surrounded by exactly five neighbors(regardless of configuration).

Code: Select all

Sure, how's this?
My bad, I wanted coral cells to count as a neighbour only for births for all cells (Including other coral cells)
I'm not sure how that's different from what I did. Could you give examples of patterns that don't evolve how you'd like?

Is it possible to make a four-state ruletable with alive cells of three colours, and with these properties?
o if you ignore the colours, then it works identically to some 2-state isotropic rule
o there are at least three different common spaceships: the glider, a R-pentomino spaceship, and a B-heptomino spaceship
o the glider is most commonly green, the R-pentomino spaceship is most commonly red, the B-heptomino spaceship is most commonly blue (and any other variants should be significantly less common)

A rule called "ParasiticDeath". State 1 follows Life, but any cell dying from S1 or S4 becomes state 2 instead of dying. State 2 follows B2-a3ai/S3-a457, but treats State 1 as on. State 1 treats State 2 as off, and can birth over it. If a cell of State 1 is surrounded by 4 state 2 in the configurations S4ajnqr, it will become state 2.

Code: Select all

x = 192, y = 53, rule = B3/S23

Can you create a rule where cells behave like life, but if they have 4 neighbours, they turn into cells that count only for survival (Like Stateinvestigator magenta cells, state 18), and those cells survive only if they have 2-4 neighbours?

nonexplosive, but now it disintegrates basically every time you use all three colors

Edit: Also, in the explosive rule, when I checked the pop-plot, there were barely any blues. Is this a bug? It could be just the blue being covered by the other colors in the graph, but the total population seems to be twice one individual color, if I'm reading the graph right.

I just got this cool new idea to kinda simulate planets and stuff (of course, this rule is like critters, population conserving)
  • 1. Random soups will merge into a ball like object.
  • 2. large objects of pop. 4 or more will have their own gravitational pull.
  • 3. gravitational pull is calculated by:
    • 3a. The cells next to the ballish circle will have the gravitational pull of the amount of cells * 2 in a NC, R8.
    • 3b. The cells that are surrounding gravitated cells will have a gravitational pull of amount of cells * 2 + amount of gravity cells.
    • 3c. All gravity cells will only be counted in calculation if they are closer to the ball of cells.
I actually don't really think this rule is possible
I want this rule
Exactly, then I can simulate planets simply in lifeviewer :D

So, I think it might be possible, but difficult.
LTL is out of question, because.
One could make it with several states, cells making "gravity pulses," pulling things toward them. Of course the waves would get weaker and weaker as they go out, and they could merge. One could make velocity of the rock cells be different states, too. It would be insanely difficult however one does it.

Ok, :(, then can I get a rule with three life states, and they all behave normally (two one states and one two state will birth a one state as usual), but if all three lifes come together (all cells present, no matter how many, like one 1s, two 2s, three 3s) they will birth a fourth state (white) where all states treat them as on state. (if one 1 state one 2 state and a 4 state come together, then it births a two state.) (four states can't birth by themselves entirely, like three of them.) (two white cells and one state 1 would birth a white cell.) (colors: back ground: 0, 0, 0, state 1 FF0000 state 2 00FF00 state 3 0000FF state 4 FFFFFF) Thanks :D

*long thing my brainn can't render*
kinda, but I want white to be like *INFECTION*, and if 8 white cells somehow get together, there will be like a state 5 that just infects everything (acts like B/S012345678) and dies after 64 generations. :D thx (when I mean infection, I mean infect all surrounding cells to be state 4, and any newborn cells that are born at all white will be white. only thing that overrides this will be the infection of state 5, which actually infects everything.)
