Re: Macro Megathread

I was briefly poking through and I noticed two macros that could be done in a different way to save patterns: Sign Purification { Vector Reflection Zero Additive Distillation Axial Purification Vector Disintegration Bookkeeper's Gambit: v-v } Angular Distillation { Dioscuri Gambit Length Purificatio...

Self-Modifying Spells (Long)

To start off, I'm gonna be showing off a lot of compiler spells. A Compiler Spell is a spell that is used to produce other spells. I like to use compiler spells a lot, so I try to make these spells as versatile as I can with as few patterns and meta-eval as possible to maximize utility and portabili...

Re: The Easiest Hammer

A 3x3x3 volume hammer is a separate, but also interesting undertaking. But if we want to compare spells fairly, we should stick to the same guidelines. The patterns that I am counting are all the patterns required to construct a spell, not just the patterns required to produce the spell effect. This...

Don't Compress Knitting Needle

Humans are not meant to enter the realm of god, lest they forfeit their mortal coil. Reducing the patterns for Knitting Needle has been quite the journey. Did you know that you can use fractional numbers with selection distillation? Apparently defined behavior https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/...

A possible solution to Consideration stacking

Consideration currently serves two functions: 1. Put the next pattern on the stack instead of executing it 2. Cancel the special behavior of escape patterns inside an intro/retro sentence Function #2 is the reason why we need to use a large stack of considerations. However, if we can find another wa...

The Easiest Hammer

The tiny 3x3 hammer thread and various other discussions on discord lead me down a rabbit hole of trying to create the fewest patterns hammer possible in base hexcasting. Specifically, find the fewest total patterns you have to draw out in order to put an iota list for a hammer spell on the stack. (...

Re: Tiny 3x3 Hammer

Ooh a compacting challenge. Very fun, I managed to get it down to 21 patterns. Requirements: hex kinetics (Sphere Distillation) The spell works by using the intersection of two spheres to get the list of coordinates in the 3x3, Then breaks all the blocks with Thoth. One sphere's center is 1 block in...
