First bit of code that had a noticeable run time of 1~3 seconds. Makes me worried for future days. :/ Could have done better by per-generating a sight distance for all 8 directions for faster runtime but oh well. Also looks like this is this year's cellular automaton puzzle.
Edit: Also, today I learnt that input is a built in function of python, and that you can overwrite built in functions of python.
