This concept and the related terminology are currently discussed in forum thread https://conwaylife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=6223 "Blockish and Blockic or blockish and blockic?" |
- For alien rules where a pattern made up of 2 × 2 blocks will forever be made up of 2 × 2 blocks, see 2×2 block rule.
A Blockic constellation is a constellation consisting entirely of blocks. Blocks can be arranged in a way that can be triggered by a single glider to produce any glider-constructible pattern.[1]
