We can see that 18 is definitely False. There are many solutions that satisfy all the requirements. But other numbers can go either way, that is, they can all be either true or false in different solutions.

This can be seen as follows:

Assume 18 is True
Then (S30) means that 16 is True
And (S42) means that 25 is True
And (S23) means that 25 is False - whoops!
Therefore 18 is False (by contradiction)

I found 1486 solutions as follows:

1. Set all the values to 0
2. Change {0,1,2,3} of the values to 1 (all possible combinations)
3. Run all the statements, adjusting the outputs if necessary (see below).
4. Repeat 3 until stability is reached or until I've iterated 60 times without reaching stability.
5. Save all stable solutions (discarding any repeated solutions).

[Notes for point 3: All statements are "if X then Y". So if X is true and Y is false, then I adjust the variable in Y and rerun. Notes for point 4: Obviously, stability might be found later than this in principle. I haven't yet checked, but I suspect that they are mostly cycling.]

In this situation:

Starting with all false, there is a solution immediately (all false).
Starting with 1 true, there are 29 solutions (only 17=True doesn't yield a stable solution immediately).
Starting with 2 trues, there are 253 solutions.
Starting with 3 trues, there are 1203 solutions.
So, I have found a total of 1203 solutions.
Starting on the other end (with all trues and adjusting {0,1,2,3} to false yields no stable solutions with this method.

Here's 20 or so consistent solutions:
