Very good! Fast!
I had to see the R-Pentomino ( https://conwaylife.com/wiki/R-pentomino)
So I changed option 5:
Code: (Select All) If start1 = 5 Then
mn(200, 100) = 1
mn(200, 101) = 1
mn(201, 102) = 1
mn(202, 102) = 1
mn(203, 102) = 1
End If

Thank you...I've started to add some of these patterns

Using the suggestions from the replies, here is the latest version:
3 patterns from the Life wiki have been added
And...I added a line drawing option, but due to my low skill level it's kind of a problem. I tried using 'right click' to exit but I don't fully understand how to apply or capture a right mouse click to get out of a loop. So i changed it to use the ENTER key. Anyway I'd like to know how to just use the mouse and right click, if anyone can suggest a solution. Cheers.

Here is a quick demo for right mouse click:
Code: (Select All) Do

While _MouseInput: Wend ' poll mouse get all updated except wheel from tiny loop
If _MouseButton(2) Then ' right clicked may want _delay or wait for mouse button release
Exit Do
Else
Cls
Print "Screen 0 mouse at:"; _MouseX; ","; _MouseY
End If
_Limit 60 ' keeps CPU cool
_Display ' stops flicher from cls
Loop
Print "Good bye!"
_MouseButton(2) just tells us that the Right mouse button is down when the poll took place.
PS Mouse coordinates in Screen 0 are in Char Cells same as use for Locate and Print. In graphics screen mouse coordinates are in pixels.

Thank you.
It seems tricky to be able to 'capture' a right-click. Is there any way to register a 1 or 0 into a variable if a right-click took place?
Also, what sort of delay/wait method would be appropriate?
If you have a giant loop (lots of things happen) and the only opportunity to escape this loop is at the very end...if the right-click happened prior to polling...is there any way to know this? The specific idea here is to allow the user to draw as many lines as they want, and when finished...just 'right-click'.
I get the impression that using right-click for this purpose is probably just not ideal. I had it working yesterday...it picked up the right-click but only if both mouse buttons were pressed. I just ended up admitting defeat.
(Interesting about screen 0 using the character placements for mouse pointer as well. Good to know)

"Thank you.
It seems tricky to be able to 'capture' a right-click. Is there any way to register a 1 or 0 into a variable if a right-click took place?"
Ans: if a right click occurs before the mouse poll, it will register immediately.
You say:
RightMouseDown = _Mousebutton(2)
and use the variable later (before end of loop).
"Also, what sort of delay/wait method would be appropriate?"
Ans: I use _Delay .2 should give user plenty of time to release the mouse. The danger is to execute some code more than once if user still has mouse down on next loop around. You can also try OldMoses method of waiting for release of button in a Sub and Steve has a thing that employs an OldmouseButton varaible.

The specific idea here is to allow the user to draw as many lines as they want, and when finished...just 'right-click'.
Ans: I would check RightMouseDown before continue drawing or you can say
While LeftMouseDown
' and keep polling mouse and checking LeftMouse status, exit when released and drag/draw done or _Mousebutton(2) detected.

Ans: I think you are right track! Ken uses it in open Intro screen, good practice.

It is!
BTW I didn't try you samples right away, not until ChiaPet's first version. I liked very much first and fith and thought you were close to replicating glider gun creations. The start of using Life for computing ie a Turing Machine. I started with lines but squares or grids might be very interesting, there is probably a perfect spacing for a grid.
I appreciate the response and suggestions...I'll try again, and see if I can get the right mouse click to work. You can see my attempt at the right click here at 292-298.
Also you can see a glider gun now at option 6. 4-7 are patterns from the Life wiki. This is very amusing, I had no idea about cellular automata until now.

What an excellent reference...thank you.
I have no idea but I'm wondering how much of this can be used in "screen _newimage" mode.
Screen 0 potential seems amazing, I definitely need to explore this
