That is a pretty spunky rule.

Here's an osc with an odd period. (P57)

Code: Select all

x = 0, y = 0, rule = B3aeij4aejrtw5-ejkr6-e78/S3a4aqr5-ekry6-i7c8
.......AA$.......AA$4$......AAAA$.......AA$....A.A..A.A$AA..AA.AA.AA..AA$
AA..AA.AA.AA..AA$....A.A..A.A$.......AA$......AAAA$4$.......AA$.......AA$!

There's this adjustable osc/osc family.

Code: Select all

x = 0, y = 0, rule = B3aeij4aejrtw5-ejkr6-e78/S3a4aqr5-ekry6-i7c8
..A.....A$AAA...AAA$.AAA.A.AAA$A.A.A.A.A$.......A.A$
.......AAA$..A.A.AAA$.AAA.A.A.A$..AAA$..A$!

So many C/3 & C/2 ships.

Code: Select all

x = 0, y = 0, rule = B3aeij4aejrtw5-ejkr6-e78/S3a4aqr5-ekry6-i7c8
...A.A$..AAAAA$...A.AA$..A.A.AA$.A...AAA$

What is this?

Code: Select all

x = 8, y = 4, rule = B2a3r4i/S1c

Is it a growing tethered slowing rake of infinite distinct ships?

Also, a few guns:

A cool rule.

At what rate does this grow? (Eg. Olog(t))

Code: Select all

Highly elliptical ellipse.

Code: Select all

x = 4, y = 17, rule = B2a3r4i/S1c
o2bo$o2bo5$3bo$2bo2$2bo$3bo5$o2bo$o2bo!

That's actually a parabola of spaceships – each individual spaceship's length is proportional to the displacement of its source from the origin.

Highly elliptical ellipse.

Code: Select all

x = 4, y = 17, rule = B2a3r4i/S1c
o2bo$o2bo5$3bo$2bo2$2bo$3bo5$o2bo$o2bo!

That's actually a parabola of spaceships – each individual spaceship's length is proportional to the displacement of its source from the origin.

A pair of parabola generators, actually, forming an ellipse-like shape (with holes in the sides)

[Macbi]

The end of an eccentric ellipse does approximate a parabola. That's why we say that a thrown ball travels in a parabola even though it's actually orbiting the earth in an ellipse.

At what rate does this grow? (Eg. Olog(t))

Code: Select all

x = 11, y = 11, rule = B2a3ir4it/S1c2n3c
11o2$o9bo4$bo$2bo$3bo$4bo$5bo!

I believe it is bounded at minimum by O(slog(t)), where slog is the super-logarithm function (the inverse operation of tetration) and at maximum by O(t).

[Sarp]

What about this one? At what rate does this grow?

Code: Select all

x = 15, y = 36, rule = B2a3ir4it/S1c2n3c

I would say roughly linear for the whole pattern. Not sure about just the glider stream past the blocker, but the amount of time it takes for one counter to delete another grows exponentially at least.

This a B2a rule thing but with no B2a. Everything travels at c/2.

Ran a far far far far larger soup; similar results.
Looks like ash is not super “flammable” like it is in similar (but explosive) rules but is very very very close. Stuff inside ash generally lasts a long time but stabilizes.

B1e/S1e2ci3y is pretty cool.

It is explosive if you could call it that - it has several small common breeders, but most things looks well-organized due to the invincible wall. There's also chaos, but it is not so common.

It has, at the same time, a REALLY small wickstrecher:

Code: Select all

x=0,y=0,rule=B1e/S1e2ci3y
o!

and a REALLY small quadratic replicator:

Code: Select all

x=0,y=0,rule=B1e/S1e2ci3y
o$bo!

an example of a small breeder, or maybe a spacefiller from 2 cells:

Code: Select all

x=0,y=0,rule=B1e/S1e2ci3y
obo!

It is one of those circuit-city rules.

If you remove B2e from Brian's Brain you get a somewhat less explosive rule with an extensible butterfly.

Code: Select all

x = 39, y = 28, rule = /2-e/3

You have rediscovered the ships in lightshow, which I investigated quite a lot (as you will see if you look at my first post).

And by extension, as it happens, a lot of lightshow c/4d tech works.

Is there any c/4 diagonal c/4 diagonal rake that is smaller than this one?
