Explanation of the rule

  • State 0: off cell (evolves like CGoL) #
  • State 1: on cell (evolves like CGoL) #
  • State 2: killer on cell (kills any adjacent cell, treated as on considering births of cells) #
  • State 3: killer off cell (kills any adjacent cell, treated as off considering births of cells) #
  • State 4: eternal on cell #
  • State 5: eternal off cell #
  • State 6: P2 killer on cell (changes into state 7 in next generation)
  • State 7: P2 killer off cell (changes into state 6 in next generation)
  • State 8: egg on cell (gives birth to all neighboring cells unless already on, treated as on considering survival of cells) #
  • State 9: egg off cell (gives birth to all neighboring cells unless already on, treated as off considering survival of cells) #
  • State 10: P2 on cell (changes into state 11 in next generation, not killer, not egg)
  • State 11: P2 off cell (changes into state 10 in next generation, not killer, not egg)
  • State 12: P2 egg on cell (changes into state 13)
  • State 13: P2 egg off cell (changes into state 12)
  • State 14: Inverter (inverts all neighboring cells) #
  • State 15: Catalyst (like state 4, but it can't give birth to cells alone)
  • State 16: Catalyst killer (like state 2, but it can't give birth to cells alone)


States 2-5 never change. States 6-7, 10-11 and 12-13 always toggle.

All states with # are also present in ExtendedLifeFancy.

This rule is really similar to ExtendedLifeFancy. Despite that, StateInvestigator was made totally independent of LifeExtendedFancy when EV2 was searching a rule with multiple states that could allow stable bumpers, bouncers and small and fast syringes.

Versions:

  • 2018 Beta (4 states)
  • 2019 1.0 (6 states)
  • 2019 1.1 (8 states)
  • 2020 2.0 (14 states)
  • 2020 2.1 (17 states)

StateInvestigator-ExtendedLifeFancy conversion (section outdated)

States 0 to 5 also exist in ExtendedLifeFancy. The only difference are the colors and the fact that states 2 and 4 in StateInvestigator become states 8 and 6 (respectively) in ExtendedLifeFancy. States 6 and 7 can't be converted to ExtendedLifeFancy. Despite the similarity, StateInvestigator was made completely independent of ExtendedLifeFancy.

Scripts (lua, based on invert.lua, only supports states 0 to 5 in StateInvestigator):

-- StateInvestigator to ExtendedLifeFancy
local g = golly()
local gp = require "gplus"
-- re-assigning inner loop functions results in a 10% speed up
local setcell = g.setcell
local getcell = g.getcell
local r = gp.rect(g.getselrect())
if r.empty then g.exit("There is no selection.") end
-- local t1 = os.clock() 
local oldsecs = os.clock()
for row = r.top, r.bottom do
    -- if large selection then give some indication of progress
    local newsecs = os.clock()
    if newsecs - oldsecs >= 1.0 then
        oldsecs = newsecs
        g.update()
    end
    for col = r.left, r.right do
        if g.getcell(col, row) == 2 then
           g.setcell(col, row, 8)
        elif g.getcell(col, row) == 4 then
           g.setcell(col, row, 6) 
        elseif g.getcell(col, row) > 5 then
           error("Invalid state")
        end
    end
end
if not r.visible() then g.fitsel() end
