Map pattern: methuselah quadrants

  • divide map into quadrants
  • each quadrant can have one, two, four, eight, or sixteen squares
  • should probably have a way to calculate a "minimum size" - rule of thumb? 15 x 15?


Map pattern: west hellmouth (various)

  • set of defensive oscillators
  • set of offensive methuselahs
  • can do three on top, three on bottom, two methuselahs in middle
  • can do two on left, plus left methuselah, two on right, plus right methuselah
  • can do symmetric, or asymmetric, as long as everything balances


Map pattern: sextants

  • oscillators in the corners, methuselahs in the center column


Map pattern: three horizontal stripes

  • top stripe, bottom stripe: oscillators/star fields
  • middle stripe: methuselahs or spaceships


Map pattern: long string (sunbeam moondog)

  • single row of methuselahs, w vertical jitter
  • randomly put some of em outta line


Map pattern: spaceships crash into oscillators

Map pattern: spaceships crash into still life patterns

Map pattern: spaceships crash into wicks
