WIRE is a GOL type.
Make 1px line of WIRE
1) Put PSCN near it, spark PSCN. Current flows now. ( NSCN takes current from it)
2) Go here: http://karl.kiwi.gen.nz/CA-Wireworld.html

>Images ( BLUE: WIRE(WATR) RED:WIRE(DUST) )
Simple wire crossing (NOT SIMPLE D: )

NOT gates

AND gates

This has three uses imo:
1) Compact wire travel with regular speed
2) More frequent sparks
3) Quick logic gates(unlike the ptct/ntct gates that cool down for a while)
Else is just easier with our elements...

But whats all the things they are talking about like logic gates etc.
So in tpt the blue is PSCN and the red is NSCN?

(Updated post above)
TL;DR: It makes new stuff possible but performing older stuff with it is epichard.

OK so blue is PSCN and red is NSCN?
