Surprisingly enough, this same exact mechanism is already known. Here is a 5 glider synthesis of 20.29799 by Dean Hickerson from 2010-01-08 or earlier:

Code: Select all

x = 64, y = 32, rule = B3/S23

EDIT: Tick 66 of this is identical to tick 1 of your pattern, with one additional glider for clean-up.

Hey, this pattern looks like Gustavo's pattern, but is it an ACCIDENTAL discovery?
Anyway, nice pattern.

Well, I discovered this while trying to eat the b from a r pentomino but I accidentally ate the pre-b

Is this p4 agar known?

I found it while randomly drawing on a 10 by 10 torus. If it isn't known, I would like to call its stabilization (assuming one exists) "checkered traffic hassler."

Yes and no (but mostly yes). While this exact reflector has probably never been constructed before, it is one among thousands that can easily be constructed from known components. A new reflector is typically considered interesting if it uses a new reaction or if it sets some record (for example, smallest bounding box or lowest population).

Yes. The right end behaves like *WSS while the left end behaves like *WSS emulators. Combining two copies of the right end gives various stable emulators. Unfortunately, if one or both ends using an expanding end like on the right, there's no easy way to grow stabilizers above and below quickly enough, unless you use inductive borders (or a torus) like you have done here.

It's a simple glider-block interaction that causes the block to shift, as shown in gen 3.

This is actually an illusion, because the initial block is not required; the glider streams create short-lived blocks anyway, and the result is identical, whether a seed block is provided or not.

My bad. Could this be used for memory storage?

No. The second reaction is trivial because the glider if it would collide with the block from a larger distance, the reaction would look the same as the first one.
I was so socially awkward in the past and it will haunt me for the rest of my life.

Temporary MWSS and permanent mold:

{preblock plus glider = pi-heptomino, MWSS, pi-heptomino}
The usual thing is to have the glider approach the preblock from the other side. Then you get pi-heptomino, MWSS, LWSS:

Code: Select all

x = 25, y = 10, rule = B3/S23
bo10bo10bo$2bo10bo10bo$3o8b3o8b3o3$b2o9b2o9b2o$2bo10bo10bo$bo10bo10bo$
11bo10bo$21bo!
This has been a very common way to make LWSSes and MWSSes for some decades now.

Accidental discovery:

When a H predeccesor reacts with a phi spark, the H is evolved in the wrong direction.

The block of the B can be used as a glider advancer.
