Two cells

[K-man]

Here are my ideas for two cell types:

Immortocyte:
A cell that supplies immortality and synthesizes nutrients for any cells connected to it. To be used for endless experimenting with an organism.

Combocyte:
A cell that can do the functions of two different modes. For example, combine two senseocytes to sense two different colors in the space of one cell. Or combine a phagocyte and a flagellocyte to make a one-celled swimmer.

Hmmm... It may be good but here's the catch
1. Immortocytes may be a combined solution of a lipocyte and a photocyte.
2. Combocytes can be done in a normal way, M1 = Phagocyte that has the child split of M2 = Flagellocyte and M3 = Phagocyte that has a child split of M1

OK, immortocytes are refuted, but combocytes could still be useful. What if you wanted to use two senseocytes in the space of one cell? I can also use it by combining 2 stereocytes for my next project: DNA Polymerase.

90/10 splits could satisfy your needs. All you need is a well-thought split tree to enable the organism to live, like when to make the organism split to Phagocyte and such. With all 40 modes, I think that's more than enough to make a simple unicellular organism.

You mean like the single celled smart farters we once created?

[H4yw1r3]

Yep. I think more things could be made from that with the 20-mode expansion.

Hmm ya mean like, when Fusing one cell to another?
Sounds like a gamete fusion but different.

[K-man]

Not really. You have to program a cell to do the functions of two modes.

About that, I didn't mean a unicellular organism. I meant combining two stereocytes. If I made them side by side, one side would be heavier and the flagellocytes would make it spin in circles

[Alast]

Oh, you can address that with better design

That would change the A.I of the cell though.

Although combining two cells at the time would be beneficial and the best advantage. Well i am working on an illustration on how it works.
Its simple though, It would need much more math to do it. But good idea indeed
