Cellular Automata
From Creatures Wiki
A CA (cellular automata) is a virtual 'smell' that is emitted from agents, such as food and plants, in Creatures Evolution Engine games such as Creatures 3, Creatures Village and Docking Station. Often the agents are invisible so as to give the appearance an area is emitting CAs; for example, an agent in the Grendel Jungle emits Grendel Home Smell, which entices the Grendels to live there.
They enter through the foot of a creature, and are detected there.
They are used in Creatures Village, Creatures 3 and Docking Station as follows:
