Why does LifeViewer(https://lazyslug.com/lifeviewer/) support FuseArt and old Clisky, but not Cellmath?

There was an issue decoding Cellmath that has been fixed in build 1182.

BUG: Run this pattern for a few generations. When you step back, the entire pattern will dissappear.

Fixed in build 1183. Thanks for reporting!

How about a “catalyses” section? You should move the “place a block to eat a beehive” exercise to there. Also, how about this exercise to teach eater 1 catalyses?

Code: Select all

If a repository RuleLoader rule exists with a name identical to one of LifeViewer's stored aliases, is there a way to force the RuleLoader rule to load?

No.

The preferred action would be to identify the reason for the duplicate and handle it appropriately by either deleting the alias or renaming the RuleLoader rule in the repository. The goal being to ensure that rule names are unambiguous, certainly across LifeViewer and Golly and ideally other tools too.

If the rules are functionally equivalent then it may be that the RuleLoader version exists because there was no native support for a particular rule family (for example MAP rules) which has since been added.

If the rules are functionally different then it would be worth understanding how broadly the use has been of both and either removing the alias or renaming the RuleLoader rule.

Here is the current list of RuleLoader repository rules that clash with aliases:

Related: I expected that one can append the @RULE file content after the RLE, and then it will be used no matter what (regardless of whether the given rulestring can be interpreted as an alias or a supported rulestring notation), but apparently this doesn't work either:

This is by design. In both LifeViewer and Golly the various algos are asked in a specific order if they support a given rule string, and as soon as one says it supports the rule it is used. The RuleLoader algo is last in this list so is only used if the rule is not supported by any other built-in algo.

In LifeViewer only you can paste an @RULE definition after the RLE. Again this is only used if no other built-in algo supports the rule name. However in this case it's easy to change the rule name to not clash with a built-in rule or alias.

Differences appear to manifest at the eighth generation.

What exactly is happening to stop this discrepancy (and if it is resolved, is there a way to simulate the rule with the formerly "incorrect" behaviour)?

[muzik]

"Copy Nhood" doesn't appear to work as expected for triangular rules. You'd expect a 5x5 selection centered on the central cell to give the same result for both of these but it does not - only the second one gives the correct output. I assume the issue here is that it's not accounting for every second triangle being of opposite parity.

Code: Select all

x = 5, y = 4, rule = B/S0123LE
$o3bo$2bo$2bo!

Code: Select all

x = 6, y = 4, rule = B/S0123LE
$3bo$3bo$bo3bo!

[muzik]

I know this ruletable is long since deprecated, but I definitely don't think cells should be rendering as solid black here:

Code: Select all

x = 2, y = 2, rule = rule_b2o45
o$2o!

Code: Select all

x = 2, y = 2, rule = B2o45/S2o45H
o$2o!

No idea what the root cause is here. Zoom out to see the correct colours.

Another affected rule - notice the white outlines:

Code: Select all

x = 4, y = 4, rule = HexLife
2bo$b2o$o2bo$2o!

[R2INT]

I know this ruletable is long since deprecated (here's the thread if a moderator wants to convert every instance of "B2o45.S2o45" to "B2o45/S2o45H"), but I definitely don't think cells should be rendering as solid black here:

Code: Select all

x = 2, y = 2, rule = B2o45.S2o45
o$2o!

Code: Select all

x = 2, y = 2, rule = B2o45/S2o45H
o$2o!

. . .

If I view the second pattern first, and then view the first pattern, it renders as dark blue.

Fixed, thanks!

Also noticing that for hexagonal ruletables, we start zoomed in to the left, whereas for natively supported hexagonal rules it starts zoomed out to fit everything as expected:

Code: Select all

Here is the current list of RuleLoader repository rules that clash with aliases:

I've marked all of the 2-state ruletables that duplicate an alias for deletion.

There are also a small handful of 2-state ruletables that aren't also aliases on the wiki, so those are now included in a pull request. For example, here's x-rule:

Once these are included as aliases we can get rid of the ruletables on the wiki since they're not needed for rule playback at all.

I think you are missing the fact that @RULE files on the wiki are also used for Golly (including older versions of Golly which did not support some features).

Even if some @RULE file can now be replaced with a supported single-line rulestring notation, it still makes sense to keep the @RULE file, for archival purpose and for use in older versions of software.

Not entirely sure why, but some of the added anisotropic aliases don't show their names in the bottom left:

Others correctly do:

As do the aliases that existed beforehand that I've tested so far:

The ones I added were generated through the "Copy as MAP" functionality, which I'd assume to be correct, but is probably what is at fault here. The strings for the top three end in //D, but mousing over them in the viewer makes them show up as //A instead. (Most other strings end in //w and also show up as such.)

It was a "Copy as MAP" issue which is now fixed. You'll need to regenerate the ones that don't show the alias name.
The reason the alias name doesn't show is because the generated MAP was incorrect in the final character which amongst other problems made it non-canonical. Once it had been made canonical it no longer matched with the alias definition so that wasn't displayed.

[muzik]

You'll need to regenerate the ones that don't show the alias name.

This should now be done (check pull requests).

While in the process of doing this I noticed a minor oddity when setting things up to be converted: mismatching rule names like this will correctly display "Invalid pattern!", but the text at the bottom will read VIEWONLY instead of why the pattern is invalid. This only works in the plugin test webpage.

Code: Select all

x = 1, y = 1, rule = conversion

Perhaps, but in this case users can find the rule table in the relevant forum post since the wiki initially copied them from there.

At least for Rule:Water there doesn't seem to be any forum post where the original @RULE file could be found:
https://conwaylife.com/w/index.php?titl ... did=154144

Probably there are other cases where the original @RULE file and discovery information will be lost.
I would prefer keeping existing old @RULE files (which often contain comments with links / discovery info / other relevant information).

Copy as MAP doesn't appear to work for range-1 weighted rules, despite the fact that they can be represented as MAP strings:

Where in the source code are definitions for themes stored? I can't seem to find anything when searching by name, but that could just be GitHub search being terrible.

Here is the current list of RuleLoader repository rules that clash with aliases:

I believe all of these are now resolved - the 2-state ruletables have been converted to aliases, and I've renamed the rule tables to get rid of the non-identical clashes. Would it be possible to get an updated version of this list to confirm there aren't any problem cases remaining (including possible case-insensitive conflicts)?

A pull request has also been sent in to get rid of some internal clashes with aliases in LifeViewer (alongside some other related changes). There's also another pull request with some Identify-related changes that has been sitting for three or so days.
