Re: Randomness in rules

I use a script to add randomness to rules. Now it is in this form:

import golly
import random

golly.autoupdate(False)
golly.setstep(0)

side = 256

while 1:
for i in range(1, random.randint(1, 100)):
golly.setcell(random.randint(-side/2, (side-1)/2), random.randint(-side/2, (side-1)/2), random ...

Re: Life+HighLife

This is my interpretation. Both states treat each other as living. (A problem with this interpretation would appear if there were a birth rule for an even number of neighbours in both rulesets.)

Re: Thread for Your Accidental Discoveries that Aren't in CGOL

B2/S356 Generations rules turn out to have a * tiny * natural gun:

Petelka and Pilot

I have created two rules.
1. Petelka (Pętelka - "Little loop" in Polish) with variant Petelka-2 - rule with something similar to little loop. Probably it is not a loop beating the record of Chou-Reggia Loop, but I don't know which part of definition is not fulfilled. Petelka has also 1D replicator ...
