    Look up "Game of Life". See that Game of Life is massive, not a toy. It's a simulation of organisms and their interactions based on a fixed set of rules.

    Just type {t} into a sign. {p} for pressure.


    Look on the Wiki for life. Or look on wikipedia.

    Life is ancient. It's been out there before computers really. It was a system devised to emulate life itself and how it lives and dies.

    ...In TPT it has a myriad of uses, but most of them are arcane and not even the experts at the stuff can just whip up useful ones.

    There has to be something I guess in TPT that most people find difficult to manipulate. ^^

    It's only of no use to the people who don't know how to use it. >:D It's one of those things even the experts will have trouble working with. No simulation program I can find allows you to simulate more than one ruleset of GOL on the same field of particles. It made me froth at the mouth just thinking about it when I realized.
