Clarity upon colors

[100xCode]

?

I understand well that a horizontal rectangle is a color value. If placed in the red value of a square they become red and the same goes for other colors. However, diamonds are confusing. In your CellPond video (which I watched), you made a reed using the -1 for every event window thing in the green slot, but I don't understand how the diamond works. Where is it copying its color from? And why did the entire application break when I put a diamond in the -1 slot of a diamond?

Thanks, 100xCode

Where is it copying its color from?

It copies it from the cell that this cell is connected to. Remember my explanation for stamps? It's the same sort of thing :) By default, it connects to the cell in that position. But you can make it connect to a different cell by using a stamp.

For example, in this rule... the square with a diamond in copies the green value of the blue cell.

But we can change this if we want! This one gets the green value of the red square instead, because we connect it with stamps.

And why did the entire application break when I put a diamond in the -1 slot of a diamond?

That's a bug because I was in a rush when I was finishing the video haha :D Here's the issue for it: #181
