Re: Making a RTS based on Game of Life

*Pokes*
I was thinking of something similar, but with a different game system.

Any meaningful progress made on this idea yet?

Not much at all really. I'm still brewing on my genetic-cells project (https://github.com/7yl4r/LifeGenes), built a websocket-based proof of concept related to this ...

Re: Making a RTS based on Game of Life

I'll just leave this here.

That is a pretty fun puzzle game, actually. I'm starting to get excited about this.

As much as I love python, and painful as I have found Android development, a mobile application is really the way to go with this if we actually want people to play it. Though I ...

Re: Making a RTS based on Game of Life

Doesn't really get forward :/, if you have an idea to program sth that would help developing the game feel free to start, because I'm not good at programming.

Bummer. I'd love to work on it, but I don't think I have the time to lead development. We need to brew the gameplay concepts a bit more ...

Re: GoL cells with genetic traits

Interesting. As the limitations of golly limit the simulated evolution's potential, it might be a good idea to migrate to a separate program based off of Golly; this would allow more possible combinations and types of 'genes'. In addition, I would suggest this possibility: something along the lines ...

Re: Making a RTS based on Game of Life


What are your plans, technically? I've seen some decent GoL implementations in javascript which you might be able to leverage for a web app.
Yesterday I asked one of my friends who knows very much about programming to help so in a few weeks there may be a program where we can test different cell ...

Re: Making a RTS based on Game of Life

This sounds epicly cool. Do you have any source code you would share?
I am still in the idea phase if there is one I will post it in the forum

yes please. I could help code if I feel the need to procrastinate and you wouldn't mind. I've been an RTS and GoL fan for years... since I was 8 I think ...

GoL cells with genetic traits

Hey guys, I'm new here but I've been working for a while on a set of scripts to add genetic code to each cell in golly. At first all genetic information is random, but from then on the gene string is inherited from the parent cells. From the genetic string traits are computed for each cell. I'll ...
