Problems with software

[rabbit]

Life viewer won't run in normal speed on mobile and sometimes my laptop as well

Try setting Advanced > Refresh Rate to something other than Auto, like 60 or 120, that seems to have fixed the speed issues for me. I also had to do it separately for conwaylife and Catagolue.

What does this output text in my apgluxe mean?
(I am currently censusing b2cei3eiy4cikqtw5aciqr6ei7es2ack3-cejr4inqwyz5-k6aik78/C2_4)

Oh, that one's tricky... in my experience, it means that it is stuck on a quadratic replicator, that is the only place where I have encountered it. (Apologies if someone else already answered!)

The BWSINT version of EPE keeps failing for me, here's the gdb trace

[NNlk05]

golly wireworsld is repsplosion but it messed up it says i has to @RULE i did it is being stupid what do i do what di ui dio

I'm interpreting that as:

Golly WireWold [rule] is Repsplosion, but it messed up.
It says I have to [have] @RULE.
I did it is being stupid [or] what
[What] did I do? What did I do?

Can you please explain how its "messed up"?

[B468S02357]

I tried to replace the rulestring of wireworld with that one rulestring someone (maybe hotcrystal) made to search repsplosion in cfind
It didnt work and it says i can't open wireworld/repsplosion anymore
