Experimental Unity3D tool for simulating all possible 2D, two-state cellular automata on a square grid.

The Built-in Render Pipeline is Unity's default render pipeline. It is a general-purpose render pipeline that has limited options for customization. The Universal Render Pipeline (URP) is a Scriptable Render Pipeline that is quick and easy to customize, and lets you create optimized graphics across a wide range of platforms. The High Definition Render Pipeline (HDRP) is a Scriptable Render Pipeline that lets you create cutting-edge, high-fidelity graphics on high-end platforms.

This tool implements a 2D version of Wolfram's Elementary Cellular Automaton (CA), where the neighborhood frame consists of 9 cells, resulting in a 512-bit rule size. This creates an immense rule space of 2^512, which equals approximately 1.34 × 10^154 possible rules. The tool features a user-friendly interface for creating and saving rules and controlling initial conditions and simulation parameters. The simulation is highly efficient, running on the GPU and utilizing a compact representation of the rules. Users can create custom initial configurations, or utilize built-in options such as "Center", "Grid", "Noise", or "Paint". OmniCA also allows for chaining rules to create more complex patterns and behavior.

Features:

Simulate all 512-bit rules of 2D, two-state cellular automata on a square grid.
GPU-accelerated simulation for fast performance and smooth visuals.
User-friendly interface for creating, saving, and chaining cellular automata rules.
Customizable initial configurations with built-in presets: Center, Grid, Noise, and Paint. Plus, a simple API that lets you easily create your own custom initial configurations.
Rule Editor for detailed rule management, with a binary view, search, and script-driven rule generation.
Customizable field initializers and support for importing external .png files for initial setups.
Rule chaining options with queue types: Order, Repeat, or Random.
For advanced users, the tool includes an intuitive API for creating automated rule-building scripts, allowing you to generate and modify rules programmatically via the RuleBuilder class.
