What is your In Game Name (IGN):
Flyingrabbit123
What in particular interests you most about redstone:
Low level CPU architecture, efficient low level circuits
Which prompt have you selected to build:
I designed a project using bit adders, which would fall under category 1. But it also an implementation of an algorithm and a game, so it could be judged under any category 1-3
If you selected prompt 5, what is the prompt that you have designed:
N/A
Please provide an explanation of your device:
I recreated an infinitely tillable version of the cellular automaton: Conway’s Game Of Life. It is set on a grid of squares called “cells”, which can be in the binary states of either living or dead/on or off. Here are the basic rules:
For a cell that is “living”:
Each cell with one or no neighbors dies, as if by loneliness.
Each cell with four or more neighbors dies, as if by overpopulation.
Each cell with two or three neighbors survives.
For a space that is “dead”:
Each cell with three neighbors becomes populated.
Currently each cell is 18 by 18 and fully tillable. I will compress it more once I find a better bit adder (I have been using an older one by grizdale). I originally made it on the RDF server, but the pictures are from a version that I copied over to a single player world so that I could use command blocks. Each cell sends its state via a command block, to a piston display screen, and the whole thing can be controlled wirelessly with variable clock speed and single step updates.

Could you make a design of your own for the unary adder(bit adder)?

Yeah that's what i've been working on, griz's isn't that compact so im trying to make one smaller, ill get back once i figure something out, right now all my designs for it are massive.

KK i found a way to do it with signal strength, i'll upload the pic of the new one.

It's the way way out, but I won't be a bitch; I'll go ahead and approve this for trial Tongue
