Symbiosis

[MathAndCode]

Isn't that P255 a pi factory?

Yes, but the pi soon crashes into the catalysts that created it, so it cannot be used as a pi factory for most purposes.

Yes, but the pi soon crashes into the catalysts that created it, so it cannot be used as a pi factory for most purposes.

There's probably a way to just catalyze the miscellaneous junk in some other way.

This works for LWSS and HWSS but not MWSS.

This works for LWSS and HWSS but not MWSS.

That's actually pretty interesting. Killer toads destroy MWSSes and HWSSes and not LWSSes, and eater 1s destroy LWSSes and MWSSes.

I wonder if it's possible to push the blinker back somehow. For now, have this:

Hm.

Here's a version that works as an injector:
