Golly doesn't recognise Flamingoships.

Post by LuxiusGOL »

I have a rule in LtL (R5,C4,M1,S40..56,B19..30,NM) that has Diagonals and Flamingos. In Golly, it says "Knightship found (speed = 6,1c/2)" even though LifeWiki specifically says anything with 6m,m/n is a Flamingoships

I basically what's wrong with it. Flamingoship is a subset of knightship. Same applies to camelships, zebraships, and etc.

Welcome!
I suppose you mean the script "oscar.py" or "oscar.lua".
As hunting said, Knightship is just used as an umbrella term for any oblique ship sometimes.

I assume he is complaining about oscar.lua since he said Python scripts does not work for him.
