How about if it's rephrased as:Majestas32 wrote:I, for one, like this "bug"
"Bug: 59gps is a lot slower than 60gps."
Code: Select all
x = 81, y = 96, rule = LifeHistory

Re: Pattern viewer for forum threads
The bug was that speeds less than 60gps were too slow. This is now fixed and will be in the next released build. 60gps hasn't changed.Gamedziner wrote:How about if it's rephrased as:Majestas32 wrote:I, for one, like this "bug"

Re: Pattern viewer for forum threads
There seems to be an issue with isotropic hex rules rendered as hex MAP rules, in LifeViewer but not in Golly. This came up on the apgsearch 4.0 thread this morning.
Re: Pattern viewer for forum threads
Thanks for reporting! I suspect there might be a similar issue with von Neumann. Could some kind soul create me a von Neumann MAP test case?dvgrn wrote:There seems to be an issue with isotropic hex rules rendered as hex MAP rules, in LifeViewer but not in Golly.

Re: Pattern viewer for forum threads
Golly and LifeViewer don't handle MAP strings the same way. For example, the following pattern grows with a point towards the bottom right in Golly, but with a point towards the top right in LifeViewer:
Code: Select all
x = 1, y = 1, rule = MAPIIA45D4DEAA128390372D4
o!
Re: Pattern viewer for forum threads
Thanks for reporting! This was actually the same issue as the previous bug report and has already been fixed but not released yet. I've added your pattern to the test case which can be seen here.77topaz wrote:Golly and LifeViewer don't handle MAP strings the same way.

Re: Pattern viewer for forum threads
Oh, right! Because it was a rule simply created by typing random numbers as a MAP string, I didn't immediately notice it was a hexagonal rule (particularly as Golly doesn't render them as such).rowett wrote:Thanks for reporting!

Re: Pattern viewer for forum threads
In Golly if you have cell icons displayed (View -> Show Cell Icons) and zoom to 8x, 16x or 32x, then Golly will draw the cells as hexagons (albeit on a square grid).77topaz wrote:I didn't immediately notice it was a hexagonal rule (particularly as Golly doesn't render them as such).
Alternatively (and much prettier), once the pattern is loaded in Golly, run Scripts -> Lua -> hexgrid.lua

Re: Pattern viewer for forum threads
Build 250 is now live on the Forums and LifeWiki
Please note: you will need to refresh your browser to use the new build
Enhancements since the last released build:
LTL is not complete yet!
Please note: you will need to refresh your browser to use the new build
Enhancements since the last released build:
- playback speeds < 60gps are much more accurate - test
- gps UI control now shows steps per second
- values less than 10 show one decimal place
- clicking on a control when the Viewer is not fully on the window now works
- added [[ POPUPWIDTH ]] and [[ POPUPHEIGHT ]] script commands to define size of popup Viewer - test
- maximum width and height for embedded and popup Viewers increased to 2048
- both Stars and Grid display can be defined per POI
- pattern actual size vs specified size shown in Help information when different
- the following script commands can now take the paramter [[ OFF ]] to disable their function:
- THUMBNAIL, THUMBLAUNCH
- GRID, STARS
- AUTOFIT, HISTORYFIT, STATE1FIT
- AUTOSTART, STOP, LOOP
- hex neighbourhood MAP rules were not working correctly - test
- patterns larger than bounded grids were not correctly clipped to top left - test
- popup Viewer should not respect meta width limit
- fixed pattern position in bounded box when specified pattern size is not actual size - test
- RLE patterns without 'rule =' were not defaulting to Conway's Life - test
- mouse was behaving badly with UI controls
- corrected coordinate display - test
LTL is not complete yet!

Re: Pattern viewer for forum threads
The hex neighbourhood rules still don't quite match Golly:
Golly: LifeViewer: Or is that just a result of Golly not rendering the hexagonal grids as such?

Re: Pattern viewer for forum threads
Yes, Golly is rendering it on a square grid. LifeViewer is using a hex-style grid.77topaz wrote: Or is that just a result of Golly not rendering the hexagonal grids as such?
You can make LifeViewer use a square grid for Hex rules by using the [[ SQUARECELLS ]] script command or pressing the '/' hotkey:
Code: Select all
x = 1, y = 1, rule = MAPIIA45D4DEAA128390372D4
o!
[[ SQUARECELLS AUTOSTART STOP 143 X 22 Y -16 ZOOM 8 GRID ]]

Re: Pattern viewer for forum threads
When I use an iPad it's really difficult to close lifeViewer, it's really hard to read when there's a giant box that you can't close without refreshing.
I keep tapping the exit button but it won't exit until i do an almost perfect tap.

I even try to center the tap as much as possible, doesn't exit.

I think you accidentally made a double post while you were trying to edit.Redstoneboi wrote:When I use an iPad it's really difficult to close lifeViewer, it's really hard to read when there's a giant box that you can't close without refreshing.

I can report the same issue, that the red X close button for LifeViewer doesn't work with iOS.
