Pedestrianhighdrylife

[pipsqueek]

As the name suggests, its life + highlife + drylife + pedestrian life. there are 4 alive states representing each rule.
This allows the pros (and cons) of each rule while preserving life's native patterns.

Code: Select all

@RULE Pedestrianhighdrylife

1 = life
2 = highlife
3 = drylife
4 = pedestrianlife

the state of a newborn cell is determined by majority (i.e if a cell has 2 life cells and 1 highlife cell around it then it will be a life cell) and if all of the neighbors are different, it will choose the one that isn't there. however, since drylife is explosive, if a cell has 1 pedestrian cell and 2 drylife cells around it then it will not become alive. (to prevent explosion)

if any search programs can support custom rules like this, I'd love to see some spaceships

c/20 Puffer 2-like spaceship consisting of a DryLife B-heptomino being escorted by two Life HWSSes and two Pederistan Life XWSSes to suppress junk.

Code: Select all

#C Please don't remove the MWSS and HWSS at the back. if you do so, it will puff out DryLife explosiveness.

And since the middle works in every rule, a 'quadcolor spaceship' is possible:
