@aldoaldoz YEAH! This is it. It's not the RRLRLRLLRL ant, but the RLRLRLLRLR. At least in my formalism (taken from wikipedia unless I did it wrong). That's veeeery cool, thank you.

I implemented it here, but fail to reproduce some of your patterns. For example RRLRLRLLRL that you show at 3:42 does not build any highway here. Are you sure that there is no typo or something? I'm puzzled because it works for most other ants

@mquinson : may be it isn't clear which colour is the first one in the sequence. Actually, the initial colour of the squares is white; and the first change is FROM white to RED: so try shifting the sequence one step.

What programming language have you been using? (And if that's the case, which GUI toolkit?)

@krawattenfan: the program is an evolution of an old old one, written in early 90s in basic. I modified it to write a bitmap to disk for each frame, a then converted the bitmaps to AVI clips.

Bel video! Che programma hai usato per farlo???

Ho scritto un programma apposta, che crea un bitmap su disco per ogni fotogramma. Poi ho montato il tutto con strumenti standard.
