Hey guys,
I am currently working on an implementation of conways game of life in Minecraft... My goal is to make it realy compact and i dont care about speed.
So far i have the logic done and it is 4x4 and 8 high. What i now need to do is connect the input to the neighbour cell inputs.
The reason i got it so small is that you only need one input where the neighbour cell data gets send in serially. Therefore the speed will be quite slow (about 40 ticks per generation). the main problem about the connection is, that it needs to send 2-tick pulses, with 1 tick delay between each so there will always be an off-tick, it has to have a torchtwer going up so it can display the cells state, and that has to fit in an 4x4 area.

Update:
i now finished the wiring it looks crazy (and it is). but im running into some difficulties because space is running out... i might add a bit of height which is currently at about 25 blocks to fit the last things in there.
