Is this period 14 sparker known?

Post by Entity Valkyrie » April 24th, 2018, 12:01 am

Re: Is this period 14 sparker known?

It's already known. In fact, I recall someone else "rediscovered" this same reaction here on the forums only a few months ago.

Less than a month ago, actually. Funny how these things keep coming around. Someone should probably put this one in LifeWiki under "tetradecathlon", to keep company with the tumbler. Both Jason Summers' original email from 2004, and muzik's rediscovery post, used that same terminology (more or less).

Ye. I did rediscover it: I did not know this reaction. I found it when using this cellular automaton called StateInvestigator that I made (.rule file)

Code: Select all

@RULE StateInvestigator

@TABLE
n_states:4
neighborhood:Moore
symmetries:permute
var a={1,2}
var b={1,2}
var c={1,2}
var d={0,1,2}
var e={0,1,2}
var f={0,1,2}
var g={0,1,2}
var h={0,1,2}
var i={0,1,2}
var j={0,1,2}
0,a,b,c,0,0,0,0,0,1
1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0
1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0
1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0
1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0
1,1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0
1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0
1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,0
1,2,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,0
1,3,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,0

@COLORS
1    0  236   91
2    0  192  254
3  254    0    0
with 2 copies of this oscillator:

Code: Select all

x = 5, y = 1, rule = StateInvestigator
5B!
to get this:

Code: Select all

x = 5, y = 22, rule = StateInvestigator
5B6$2.A$2.A$.A.A$2.A$2.A$2.A$2.A$.A.A$2.A$2.A6$5B!
then replaced the StateInvestigator sparkers with Life pipsquirters.
