Mode 2 · Age Bands

  • Grid Size: changes how many Conway cells exist. Larger grids create richer detail but require more rendering work.
  • Sphere Size: expands or contracts the actual 3D radius of the sphere.
  • Node Size: scales the visible dots without changing the simulation rules.
  • Depth Effect: makes the front side brighter/larger and the back side dimmer/smaller, giving the sphere more 3D depth.
  • Age Bands: groups cell ages into visible color steps so long-lived structures stand out.
  • Ghost Trail: keeps recently dead cells visible as fading traces.
  • Orbit: slowly rotates the camera for a presentation-style view.
