Version 600
To fix:
- terminology (patterns, stamps, map patterns, etc.)
- rearrange package into legacy and next gen functionality
To expand:
- define two-color stamps (mixed colors)
- define templating system for map patterns
- quadrants or sextants
- spaceship crashes
Also need to figure out some star wars CA patterns...
patterns
oscillators
| name | type | notes |
|---|---|---|
| 70p70 | oscillator | looks like the sun |
| airforce | oscillator | like a tiny burloafiermeter, think of it as a "safe" |
| dinnertable | oscillator | our favorite old friend |
| harbor | oscillator | pretty |
| koksgalaxy | oscillator | another pretty |
| quadrupleburloaferimeter | oscillator | the classic safe |
| ring64 | oscillator | pretty |
| switchbox | oscillator | pretty, flickers |
methuselahs
| name | type | notes |
|---|---|---|
| acorn | methuselah | expands, kicks out to the right side |
| brx46b | methuselah | very short-lived, doesn't do much |
| bunnies | methuselah | awesome, develops fast without expanding much, then explodes |
| centinal | methuselah | this is a big, expanding, perfectly-symmetrical pattern |
| century | methuselah | very short-lived, hard to do much with this |
| cheptomino | methuselah | very short-lived, relatively simple, but makes a few spaceships |
| dove | methuselah | surprisingly effective, big development in small area |
| eve | methuselah | ugly but effective |
| fred | methuselah | part of fred & wilma, good development in the center before spreading |
| grandpa_13629876 | methuselah | takes some time to generate a decent ash field, left corner becomes important eventually |
| grandpa_305230 | methuselah | takes some time, again a decent ash field, fades after 600 or so generations |
| grandpa_42100 | methuselah | growth really accelerates with time |
| justyna | methuselah | good solid one |
| multum in parvo | methuselah | the worm |
| mustardseed | methuselah | growth increases with time, starts to really spread out |
| piheptomino | methuselah | not huge, not long-growing, but very small, effective for random placement with 8 or 10 |
| rabbits | methuselah | interesting that we now have rabbits AND bunnies... |
| roseluck | methuselah | looks like it's going to die out, then gets a second wind, only lasts 400 gens or so, creates some spaceships |
| spaceshipgrower | methuselah | this is a good solid fast-developing pattern that throws out some gliders and is super tiny |
| switchengine | methuselah | solid, fast-growing, gradually-spreading pattern |
| timebomb | methuselah | nice efficient small pattern |
| twoglidermess | methuselah | perfect pattern. tiny, glider, mess, and it starts small and expands solidly with time |
| unidimensionalinfinitegrowth | methuselah | perhaps the simplest methuselah, dimension-wise, just a 1D string of cells... great for creating an ash field |
| wilma | methuselah | part of wilma & fred, square (looks like QR code), solid growth |
| wing | methuselah | very small, very fast-developing, not super effective but can rapidly change anything in its near vicinity |
spaceships, guns, rakes
| name | type | notes |
|---|---|---|
| backrake2 | glider generator (moving - rake) | this is the set of 3 or 5 puffers, one leaves a wake that the others turn into gliders |
| bisectingpuffers | spaceship generator | sends medium spaceships out to the left |
| coespaceship | spaceship | not very big, leaves a little puff of smoke at the back |
| flotilla_14wss | spaceship | fishhook spaceship, great tool for crashes |
| gosper_gun | glider generator (static - gun) | ping pong game that generates gliders |
| heavyweightspaceship | spaceship | there's nothing "heavy" about this one... the light/heavy spaceships are both small and floppy. |
| lightweightspaceship | spaceship | ...rename to consolidate |
| middleweightspaceship | spaceship | ...rename to consolidate |
| simkin_gun | glider generator (static - gun) | generates gliders up and to the right (might want to rotate 180 to be consistent with other guns) |
| spacebunnies | spaceship generator | similar to bisecting puffer, this makes a puffer ship while doing some methuselah stuff and making gliders |
| tagalong | spaceship | like the wickstretcher without the wick. big, slow-moving, horizontal spaceship |
other
| name | type | notes |
|---|---|---|
| crabstretcher | ? | crab that stretches a long strand of squares behind it |
| block | still life | just a regular ol square |
| cthulhu | still life | not much of note |
| wickstretcher | ? | this is the "tagalong" spaceship, except it's weaving a web, and there's a base station catching the web behind it. |
