The Cell Information window - Lincoln-Cybernetics/Cellular-Explorer GitHub Wiki

The Cell Information Window gives detailed information about each cell in the automaton, and can be accessed from the Master Control Panel, either from its button, or the "Window" menu.

The following pieces of information will appear in the Cell Information window based on the cell the mouse is currently over in the main display.

Cell Type: gives the name of the cell.

Input Mode: shows how the cell is interpreting its input. This can be either:
No input : the cell ignores its neighbors, Binary: the cell sees its neighbors as either on (in a positive state) or off (0 or negative), or Integer: the cell interprets positive, negative and zero integer values

Current state: the cell's current state.

Age: If the cell has the "Ages" option activated, the cell's current age is shown.

Fades: If the cell is subject to the Fade Rule, the maximum lifespan of an active state is shown.

Direction: If the cell has a direction or orientation setting (see Cell Picker), its numerical value is
shown. (0=up or up-down axis, 1 = upper-right or upper-right to lower-left axis, 2 = right or left-right axis, 3 = lower right or upper-left to lower-right axis, 4 = down, 5 = lower-left 6 = left, 7 = upper-left)

Maturity: If the cell uses the maturity setting, it shows {the cell's maturity counter}/{the cell's maturity setting}.

Wolfram Rule: If the Cell uses one of the elementary Wolfram rules, the rule number is shown.

B/S: If the cell uses a life-like, (outer-totalistic) rule, the Born on and Survives on numbers are shown.

Mirror: If the cell is a Mirror cell, the coordinates that it mirrors are shown.

Neighborhood Expansion: If the cell has a neighborhood expansion factor, its value is shown. (see Cell Picker)
