Re: Another Conways game of life, assembly
Thanks for the suggestion.
I wanted to implement something that would tell me when to do the reboot.
But there are some infinite patterns that can change the number of cells, for example the "beacon" pattern changes between 8 and 6 cells cyclically.
Maybe I could implement a mixed mode, count the number of live cells and put a limit of cycles.
EDIT:
I added what you commented.
if the number of live cells remains constant for 10 cycles, the game restarts automatically.
