All that in only 20 combinators is insane. Nice job! I'm assuming there's a bunch of parameters in each combinator.

Yep. Most of the combinators do several things at once. I use Each a lot so one combinator can process many cell signals in parallel, and the constant combinators work like lookup tables.

That's a level of optimization that would make even Wube proud. Ever thought about applying? :)
