Creating one or more pairs of 3x3x3 block structures you can program an automata block inside minecraft.

The first 3x3x3 blocks tells what blocks to replace the blocks around the automata and the next 3x3x3 is the pattern of blocks that should be replaced if there is a match.

Check here for a more in depth explanation and the mod file (github pages) :

Also a little video demo:

Latest release add a y rotation cube so you can add a pattern for all y rotations.

The replacement in now done in two steps, one tick matches the pattern and another replaces it. This way behavior is more consistent. With this, it is now possible to program conway game of life and other automata rules.

Also, new texture for water and lava placeholders.
