Static Life

Post by SomeRandomGuy15 »

In Conway's Game of Life, each cell has 8 neighbors, but what if they had 4 on each side? Then you get "Static Life" which I've named. https://ncase.me/sim/?lz=N4IgtgpgLghiBc ... mlAUUAglQA
This long URL links to the simulation, but is there a way to make the simulation on bigger boards? I don't know how to.
Also I've made some search in this simulation and made a whole word document, how can I post it?

Welcome to the forums!

This rule is called B3/S23V (where V stands for Von Neumann neighbourhood):

Code: Select all

x = 1, y = 1, rule = B3/S23V

Hold up. Wait a minute. Are you Nicky Case??? :shock:
