Re: Keeping track of dirty conduits

some h-to-h got modified to make a b-to-h that emits 1 extra glider, it works fine but the input is a bit contrained, and I did not quite find something appropriate there: x = 68, y = 56, rule = LifeHistory 2$28.4B$27.4B3.2A$26.4B4.A$13.2A10.4B7.A$14.A9.4B4.5A10.2A2.2A$12.A 10.4B6.A7.2A3.A.A3.A$12.5...

Re: Stable universal regulator

For a better repeat time, I think what I posted before is better, just that the input are gliders, so that makes this quite compact. Another thing that seems to work is this, and it involves a block keeper in fact: x = 91, y = 140, rule = LifeHistory 16$37.A$37.3A13.2A$40.A9.2A2.A$39.2A8.B2A.A$39.5B...
