Can you elaborate some more? I think M. I. Wright may have already made a program like thissynperiplanar wrote: October 31st, 2026, 12:56 ama multiple-spark search program shouldn't be too hard, i'm thinking just a list of sparks and a pattern to run through like hotdogPi's script but withLuveelVoom wrote: October 22nd, 2026, 7:31 pm 1.

Re: Luveelvoom's scripts and ideas
weird jls lls menu integration but it also seeds the sat solvers so it is kinda multithreaded yes anyway this is so bad. the jls dev hasnt been active for 5 years and lls is under an MIT license so this is fine right mods delete if im violating copyright law thx

Re: Luveelvoom's scripts and ideas
Drift now has a sort by sparkiness option, which uses a surprisingly good heuristic. Add --sort sparky to the end of your command, or stick it in the config file with a different format that I don't feel like typing up atm

Re: Luveelvoom's scripts and ideas
drift's must-reach option seems to be pretty buggy. I ran it with this input file:
(the singular state 2 is (14,6) which is the must-reach cell)
I already knew that a solution exists, though, namely this:
Despite this, the search still returned no results even though there exists a pattern satisfying all the constraints.
Code: Select all
rule = B3/S23-a5
max-changed = 10
size = 6x6
max-gen = 30
max-steps = 3000000000
must-reach = p 14 6
skip = oscillator

x = 34, y = 14, rule = B3/S23-a5History
