Rule:Marbles

@RULE Marbles

Inspired by a toy, this rule can do anything you can do in that toy set, or even something better. The toy is a marble track, but with logic gates. Different from Turing Tumble, this toy is not designed to be Turing Complete, but this ruleset does.

In the original toy, the board is only 20*20, but with Golly, the board is unbounded. The rule has a ball lift and a ball splitter, while the toy can't!

1. Sometimes we need to block the path

1. Normal ball movement
2. Abnormal state(16)
3. we have a ball duplicator...
