Any combination of two pond layers that release spaceships and don't die out?

I think that someone already wrote about this. If I remember correctly, he pond layer has a pretty large area of influence and its interactions happen with the actual productive section instead of with large sparks, which makes it rather difficult.

On a side note, very weird 4G-->4G:

Code: Select all

x = 15, y = 16, rule = B37/S2-i34q

The only nondestructive interactions I found between pond streams and pond layers either moved the ponds or turned them into blocks. There were no viable opportunities to thin down the number of pond streams without creating many more.

Is there any quadratic growth possible by firing Ts into ponds created by the pond layer?

[Rhombic]

Is there any quadratic growth possible by firing Ts into ponds created by the pond layer?

I have already looked into it, but I think that the spacing between the ponds does not allow it (or I have missed the correct angle). Furthermore, the direction of the incoming Ts could be hindered by the other ponds.

By the way, any good ideas to use this for computation?

Yes, that being a consequence of my belief that converting TLifeHistory to TDryLifeHistory was a trivial exercise.
You're free to try and fix it as an exercise in rulemaking.

Can anyone make a quadratic growth pattern that doesn't leave huge "banana peels" of gliders coming form the front?

Two copies of Rhombic's second quadratic growth with two extra knight engines do the trick:

Alternately, just position some knightships off into space that eat the extra streams from a single quadratic growth pattern.
