The CA battle

Post by b-engine » February 19th, 2024, 6:13 am

In here, you can nominate your own CA for the battle. A soup from the nominated rule will been placed at a 1000 x 1000 finite plane

Rules:
1. The rule must use range-1 Moore neighborhood or subset of the neighborhood. Moore or von Neumann neighborhood are recommended.
2. The rule can have any number of states, but below 16 is recommended.
3. The rule must not be explosive. Common (in the list of top 20 most common objects) linear growths are allowed, but not for common quadratic growths. Chaotic rule is recommended.
4. A rule must be converted to 3-state equivalent if the rule is strobing.
5. If you nominate a rule, give the rulestring (ruletable if multistate), or the link to it's discussion topic.
6. The scoring system is the amount of space occupied by the cells with states belong to the rule. If the rule have cells occupying most space, then the rule wins, thus the rule nominator/owner wins.

If there're 8-16 nometees, then I'll make a ruletable for all of them, then the battle start.

Here, I nominate my three rules: B2in3-q4w/S23, B2in3-q4w/S234z and B-Univ.
All of them are either extremely chaotic or having common linear growths.

How do you win, and what is the scoring system?

The scoring system is the amount of space occupied by the cells with states belong to the rule. If the rule have cells occupying most space, then the rule wins, thus you win.
