I am not sure what criterion are used to pick conduit element for the search, just wondered where the following lands ^^

Code: Select all

x = 40, y = 41, rule = LifeHistory

Hersrch doesn't have any way to effectively deal with adjustable conduits like that. One could add different variants of this "conduit" with different spacing, but that might cause Hersrch's algorithm to perform poorly.
