I'M USING THIS CAVE TO INTRODUCE NEW MOVING FLY FORMATIONS NOT PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED IN arno'S LIST. I'LL UPDATE THIS CAVE EACH TIME I FOUND A NEW FORMATION.  
  
THE FIRST ONE IS 4B+1F GOING DOWN-LEFT. THE FORMATION OF BFLIES IS THE SAME AS IN 4B DOWN-LEFT. THERE'S JUST AN ADDIOTIONAL FFLY. THE GROUP CAN'T BE SPLIT INTO TO TWO MOVING GROUPS SO IT BASICALLY IS A SINGLE GROUP. BFLIES NEVER REALIZE THAT SOMEONE IS TRAVELING WITH THEM BECAUSE BFLYS NEVER CHECK THE POSITION WHERE FFLY IS. SO FFLY IS BASICALLY TRAVELING AS A STOWAWAY :)

ALL FORMATIONS WILL BE WITH CLOSED BORDERS, I WON'T CHECK FOR NEW FORMATIONS ENABLED BY OPEN BORDERS.

THE NEXT FORMATION IS 5B GOING UP-RIGHT. AGAIN THIS GROUP CAN'T BE SPLIT INTO TWO SEPARATE MOVING GROUPS. THIS TIME THERE ARE NO STOWAWAYS AND ALL BFLIES INTERACT WITH EACH OTHER SO THIS A NEW FORMATION.  
  
I HAVE BEEN STUDYING DIAGONAL DIRECTIONS AND ESPECIALLY UP-LEFT AND DOWN-RIGHT BECAUSE NO GROUP HAS BEEN FOUND TO MOVE IN THOSE DIRECTIONS. SO FAR I HAVE HAD NO LUCK. IT SEEMS THAT THOSE DIRECTIONS ARE IMPOSSIBLE OR THE GROUP NEEDED IS SOMETHING VERY COMPLEX.

THE NEXT GROUP IS INTERESTING. THE GROUP IS 6F GOING DOWN. I FOUND IT ACCIDENTALLY WHEN I TRIED TO CONSTRUCT A GROUP GOING DOWN-RIGHT. THE CYCLE LENGTH IS WHOPPING 18 FRAMES! (THERE ARE 18 DIFFERENT STATES IN FORMATION). THE GROUP ADVANCES DOWN TWO STEPS DURING A CYCLE SO IT ADVANCES ONE STEP / 9 FRAMES. IT'S THE SLOWEST MOVING GROUP FOUND SO FAR (arno, CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG :) BECAUSE OF MANY DIFFERENT STATES AND SLOW MOTION IT LOOKS LIKE AN ANIMATED SPINNING DISC. I GOT ANOTHER STORY-CAVE IDEA WHERE I'LL USE IT LATER; IT WILL BE ARCADE GAME STYLE :)  
  
I TRACKED MOVEMENTS OF EACH SEPARATE FLY AND I NOTICED THAT THERE ARE TWO ROLE GROUPS WHICH EACH HAVE 3 FLIES. THE FLIES WITHIN ROLE GROUP WILL CHANGE PLACES DURING A CYCLE SO THAT ROLE CYCLE IS 1 -&GT; 2 -&GT; 3 -&GT; 1. AFTER 3 FULL CYCLES (3*18 = 54 FRAMES) ALL FLIES ARE BACK ON THEIR INITIAL POSITION.  
  
IF THERE EXISTS A FORMATION GOING UP-LEFT OR DOWN-RIGHT IT WILL PROBABLY BE SOMETHING LIKE THIS AND THE GROUP WILL HAVE A LONG CYCLE LENGTH. IT MAY NOT MOVE DIRECTLY TO UP-LEFT OR DOWN-RIGHT BUT MAY FOR EXAMPLE GO TWO STEPS DOWN AND ONE STEP RIGHT DURING A CYCLE MOVE TO DOWN-DOWN-RIGHT RATHER THAN DOWN-RIGHT.

VERY INTERESTING! :-)   
  
18 FRAMES (OR 9 PER STEP) IS INDEED A NEW RECORD. THE SLOWEST I KNEW BEFORE WAS A SET OF 5 FF GOING DOWN (VISIBLE IN arno 833), WHICH HAS 8 FRAMES PER LOOP.  
  
ALSO INTRIGUING THAT THIS SET IS MADE OF 2 SUBGROUPS "WORKING" TOGETHER, PROBABLY A NEW PHENOMENON AS WELL.  
  
YOUR 5 BF UP-RIGHT REMINDS ME OF THE EXISTING 4 BF UP-RIGHT, WHICH HAS ALSO 7 FRAMES PER LOOP. I WONDER IF THESE 2 FORMATIONS ARE SOMEHOW RELATED.  
  
ANYWAY, I HAVE TO UPDATE MY LIST! :-D
