04:39:20 <zzo38> I had thought also about the bitgrid yesterday too. At first I did not understand either, until I saw the example
04:41:27 <zzo38> I had also thought about implementing it in Free Hero Mesh, although (unless you use level strings), in the level editor each object will only have fifty-one bits of initial state (other than the class, image, coordinates, and maybe the data types but this is harder to use for this purpose)

17:56:56 <fizzie> "Using librsvg to render SVGs to a PNG will give much more accurate results, as well as less bandwidth consumption." A sad truth.
17:57:40 <int-e> "less bandwidth consumption" depends a lot on the source though
17:58:27 <int-e> I'm okay with it being rendered as png... it's just a bit sad to have a scaleable source and having to compromise on a (relatively) high resolution png instead

18:29:38 <river> I can't improve it because i don't know what it means
18:29:59 <b_jonas> river: you know how each cell gets an input from its neighbors but not from itself
18:30:38 <b_jonas> so if you color the whole grid to a checkerboard dark and light pattern, then take several rounds of evaluation, then each cell only gets input from the value of dark cells or the value of light cells
18:30:56 <b_jonas> the program in both types of cells influences the result, but not the starting value in the other color of cells
18:31:15 <b_jonas> the data goes from dark cell to light cell and vice versa in each clock cycle

18:56:58 <int-e> yeah, I see now that it's double-UTF-encoding
18:57:49 <int-e> the solution is to just change `boxVar` to produce unicode characters (you can even put them in the source) and get rid of the `pref` there.
