How is this different from a CA with dynamic neighbourhoods? Other than the visualisation of course. It appears at first read to be isomorphic to what's shown, unless I'm overlooking something (quite possible I am). CA with neighbourhoods dependent on cell states and/or agents were what made later versions of SimCity etc work.
I was working on GACA with dynamic neighbourhoods in 1997.
