Any Middle-clicked LIFE form turns to GOL.

    First of all, we need a bugs section, where users report bugs.

    Steps to repeation:
    1. Make some WALL or any LIFE form except GOL.
    2. Middle click it.
    3. Draw it.
    Result? The expected result should be the LIFE form you chosen drawn. It actually draws GOL.
    Another thing is that any LIFE form is called LIFE. If we changed it to the LIFE form, it will fix the middle click issue and it will display properly.

    Rob215, why don't you go see the stickied topics. https://powdertoy.co.uk/Discussions/Thread/View.html?Thread=3725
    (The Bug topic)
    Also, not any LIFE form is called LIFE. Every Game of Life form has different rules on multiplying and disappearing.

    It is not a bug, it is a design flaw. LIFE has its rule-string determined by CTYPE. Middle click only remembers the element and does not remember CTYPE.

    Alpha, that is pointless. I did not even open the save, because no one needed that, and from what I saw in the thumbnail, it's not even related.
