@j_miskov it seems like it to me! i see that in old games.
when would you say people started thinking in that sort of pre-object-oriented parallel data way?
which is just so much less natural than doing it as an agent on a grid of inert black and white cells.
ant = {
x: 1,
y: 6,
facing: east
}
it definitely predates the object oriented programming fad, but people were doing agents without objects.
is there a reason people describe langton's ant as cellular automata? i feel like it's incredibly unwieldy if you implement it as cellular automata. you need ant (e, s, w, n) x (black, white) and then it 'walks' by having cells in front of it know which direction they are and become an ant.
thank you to all the new patrons!
this is a huge improvement, but i am still struggling getting bills paid and having enough to eat. winter is cold here, and my shoes have holes in them. if you appreciate my procedural generation work, please consider supporting me!

@balint it doesn't have overpasses, but i do really like the bridges in brogue! they're one of my favorite examples of vistas in 2d generated spaces.
