does this reverse Aidan mode

EDIT: yes it does! sadly, only the people who Aidand (Aidan-d? Aidaned? Aidan'd?) can reverse it ):

Don't use it outside of the testing grounds.

Thanks

this is pretty cool i don't know what i did

HOLY CREPE WE MIGHT GET APGSEARCH 4.0 SOON AND IM HYPED

HOLY CREPE WE MIGHT GET APGSEARCH 4.0 SOON AND IM HYPED

A few preparatory changes have been made to Catagolue, namely:

• Multi-layer apgcodes are correctly interpreted;
• Multicolour static SVGs are displayed for Generations patterns;
• The minimum soups per haul has been increased from 10 000 to 10 000 000 for the singularly annoying symmetry 1x256X2+1. All other symmetries are unaffected.

The minimum soups per haul has been increased from 10 000 to 10 000 000 for the singularly annoying symmetry 1x256X2+1.

So from what I know, 10 million soups produces over a half billion objects. I see what you're doing here. You're increasing the soup per haul limit, so whatever passes has more than 1 MiB, right?

10 million soups isn't even that large, please. Smith Robert Lawrence once posted a haul with 1490 million soups:

https://catagolue.appspot.com/haul/b3s2 ... 480ff36e97

Yes, that had over 32 billion objects in it, which is slightly more than twice as large as the entire 1x256X2+1 census.

Sorry, if only there was a way to see how much memory was in a haul, it would be much easier to understand.

Every version of apgsearch can produce log files (thanks to Apple Bottom in the case of v3.x), which are (almost?) identical to the files which are sent to Catagolue:

If you examine the file sizes of the log files, you'll see how large your hauls are.

Although I agree it would probably be better if this information could be seen on Catagolue.

What rule notation will Larger than Life rules use on Catagolue?

[toroidalet]

I did. Here's another Sierspinski builder:

Since you appeared to have ignored my PM about sending all your posts to a defunct user (Louis Davidson or Danieldb) I will just post it here: Please don't post your useless pattern collections here.

[Saka]

Please don't post your useless pattern collections here.

Agreed. We should have a rule for this thread: No talking about CA, at all! gjshdghwjwhsb!!!!

Just joshing your chops I'm fine with that

I wonder if w'll ever get apgsearch to run on the Antikythera mechanism. I said apgsearch because according to Adam himself,

apgmera can only run on x86-64 machines. If you have an ancient computer, then the recommended alternative is the Python script.

What rule notation will Larger than Life rules use on Catagolue?

For range-4 and above, I imagine it will be the same as Kellie Evans' numeric notation, but with identifying letters instead of commas, e.g.:

r7b65t95s65t114

for what Kellie Evans calls '7,65,95,65,114' and Mirek calls 'R7,C0,M1,S65..114,B65..95,NM'.

For range-2 and range-3, I intend to support arbitrary non-B0 outer-totalistic rules using a base-16 encoding of the birth and survival conditions.

Will multistate Larger than Life rules be supported? If so, will they use the same g notation that Generations rules do?

Please stop, you're corrupting the Random posts just like wwei23 did.

I would do something like B3,4,5/S2,3,4/R2.

[praosylen]

I would do something like B3,4,5/S2,3,4/R2.

I agree. That notation is similar to something I developed a while back for my own purposes, but I haven't seen the range included in slashed notation before, and I like it a lot, although possibly the last slash could be omitted for consistency's sake with the notation for specifying neighborhoods, e.g. B3,4,5/S2,3,4R2 or B4/S1,2,3,4R2V. This could also be extended to 1D, 3D, 4D, etc. rules (B3,5/S1,2,3/D1/R4, B6/S6,8/D3, etc.).

Apgsearch v1.x: Baby/Child Apgsearch, in its young stages.
Apgnano v2.x: Awkward teenage phase, only lasted a very short time.
Apgmera v3.x: Adult stages.
Apgmera v4.x: Apgsearch becomes a cyborg.
