2nd Method:

1. Download/clone the repository (git clone -b master --progress https://github.com/Vladg24YT/Game-Of-Life.git)
2. Copy file gol.lua to .minecraft/saves/<world-name>/opencomputers/<filesystem-uuid>/ into /bin or /home directory

UI & How to Play

Controls:

• ] - proceed to next generation
• [ - return to previous generation
• \ - start self-proceeding simulation
• / - clear field and restart
• ` - exit the game
• LMB - invert cell's state

The game is not yet optimized, so I recommend you to change cells' states when the bottom line is green like on a screenshot above. If the bottom line is red (screenshot below), all your actions will be put into event queue, so you won't be able to immediately see which cell you're changing.
