Re: The 1D Replicator Collection

I think we should catalog B0 ones separately, like this (±51,33)c/102 migratory orthogonal replicator: x = 73, y = 3, rule = B01e2ace34ajy5akq6ci7e/S01e234a5cinq 33bo5bo$o3bo29bo3bo29bo3bo$bobo65bobo! Is there a dedicated collection for B0 5s stuff? We could definitely set up one for this collectio...

I managed to reduce the pattern to the following mod1275 p750975 oscillator on a torus with a shift in one direction. How long this takes to identify on the same system?

Re: Golly 4.3b1

Non-Totalistic/Oscillators/coverleaf-chain.rle and coverleaf-chain-emulation.rle misspell the name "cloverleaf". The typo with one "l" dropped may have come from several forum posts. Isn't "coverleaf" a sufficiently established name for this pattern by this point? "Cloverleaf" is also a very ambigu...

Interesting pattern for benchmarking - this takes 1583.7 seconds to detect periodicity and 2308.0 to finish.

Is PASTET supposed to create previously-alive dead cells in places where it's used to stop cells from being born naturally?

Re: Thread for basic questions

A period-3 phoenix (i.e. strictly volatile period-3 oscillator where every cell is only one for one period) cannot exist, but can a strictly-volatile period-3 oscillator where every cell is on for two generations exist?

There're 136 neighbors in the weighted neighborhood, but LifeViewer says the maximum neighbors a cell can have is 8.
This appears to work:

Why is it that parity rules where the number of copies is equal to (or a perfect power of) the number of states ends up behaving in a different way that's kind of hard to describe?
