Build 1240 is now available on the lazyslug server

Enhancements in this build:

• added Safe Mode which helps on low memory devices
  • toggle with Settings>Advanced>Safe Mode (hotkey Shift F9)
    • this setting is saved for the current browser on the current device
  • will not add SHOW IN VIEWER link when pattern uses [[ MAXGRIDSIZE 14 ]]
  • will not Launch Thumbnail when pattern uses [[ MAXGRIDSIZE 14 ]]
    • instead, RLE can be copied by clicking on the Thumbnail
      • this can be disabled with [[ NOCOPY ]]

Build 1241 is now available on the lazyslug server

Fixes in this build:

• fixed alternating Wolfram rules
  • only the bottom row is kept alive since the alternating rules will adjust earlier rows

[rowett]

Build 1242 is now available on the lazyslug server

Enhancements in this build:

• added Cell Shaders that control how cells are coloured for Life-like patterns
  • there are now four shaders which determine the cell colour:
    1. Cell Age (the default)
       • determined by cell longevity and history
    2. Rainbow
       • based on the cell position on the grid
    3. Neighbour Count
       • calculated from the number of neighbours
    4. Basic
       • one colour when alive and another when dead (the fastest)
  • the shader can be set via the UI:
    • Settings>Display>Age|Rain|Nbr|Bas
    • hotkey Alt-W will cycle through the shaders
  • or set with script commands:
    • [[ RAINBOW ]], [[ NEIGHBOUR ]], [[ BASIC ]]
  • note: switching away from the Cell Age shader resets cell history and longevity

Fixes in this build:

• fixed HROT multi-state rules including fully faded dead cells in the bounding box
• fixed Nudge Selection going into the bounded grid border
• fixed Triangular Cell Period Map size
• fixed Cell Period Map legend background for >2 columns

Build 1243 is now available on the lazyslug server

Enhancements in this build:

• automatically use the Basic shader in place of Cell Age shader when the current Theme has no history

Fixes in this build:

• fixed [[ NEIGHBOR ]] keyword being ignored

[rowett]

Build 1244 is now available on the lazyslug server

Enhancements in this build:

• added script command [[ SHADER shader ]] to set the Cell Shader
  • shader is one of RAINBOW, NEIGHBOUR, NEIGHBOR or BASIC
• reordered Shader buttons

Fixes in this build:

• fixed an issue with the Basic shader on pattern reset when in Cell Age mode
• e-enabled [[ KILLGLIDERS ]] for HROT/LtL range 1 rules

[rowett]

Build 1245 is now available on the lazyslug server

    1. Res displays the summary results
    2. Tbl display the cell period table
    3. Per displays the cell period map
    4. Frq displays the cell frequency map
  • hotkey E will cycle between Identify results, Cell Period Table, Cell Period Map and Cell Frequency Map
  • hotkey D will download the Cell Period Map or Cell Frequency Map as an image when displayed
