User guide

WireWorld has 4 states:

Space: represented by black.
Wire: represented by gold.
Spark: represented by red.
Tail: represented by blue.

Spark changes to tail.

Tail changes to wire.

Wire changes to spark if it's surrounded by 1 or 2 sparks.

Even with so simple rules, it's able to implement many stuff in it, even a computer.

X - toggle between saving the previous state and restoring it, or not

Y or Stylus - toggle between slow and normal motion

A or Stylus - toggle on/off

Stylus - Drawing, etc...
