Yes, the 'Turmites' are a form of cellular automata, also known as Langton Ants or 'vants'.
A lot of other examples I've seen around the web usually use only 1 or 2 turmites and they are usually the same type or just a 'mirror version' of each other. This farm module lets you play with several types and place hundreds while being able to swap colors, save/load your farm and doing a few more things which hopefully makes it a bit more like an art tool.

Amazing, do you use cellular automata?
I never thought about using it to generate some kind of image.
And the tool is pretty astonishing.
Thank you very much!

Thank you, I just know about that kind of cellular automata, I will take a look on it.
Hello everyone,
I created the new Turmite Farm module in Agave Art Sweet as my submission.
Hope you have fun!
