    Karakanlud. You've perfected it. The new geometry is just what it needed. I've watched it for ten to twenty minutes. It's doing just fine.

    Next goal - self replicating, if there's enough energy.

    Nah, I think it simply needs some adjustment. As they broke in half, maybe it was too easy for the stne to jump between a detector and the one next to it. So now I'll try experimenting with a different geometry.

    Do you think you'll have to scrap this one? Just curious.

    Like...as soon as I started, the red block decided to commit sudoku.

    .......Broke is half, perfectly down the middle, both the red and green.
