Is there a universal 2-lane monophase slow-salvo toolkit?

I think that should admit a stator reduction.

I think you've discovered Popper's paradox of tolerance.

Did you try sldiff? That would give you the closest naturally-occurring still-lifes if you feed it with the D2_+1 textcensus.

Okay, but why can't we host everything on pages like "RLE:long10boat" on LifeWiki?

Then it takes a lot more effort to download the RLE itself (I don't believe there's an easy way to access the raw contents of a wiki page).

Thankfully, we won't actually have to solve all 930 individually. transfer.py is a wonderful thing.

There are a number of still lifes that look like they'd be solved with a transfer of this, for example:

Excellent! A recent run of transfer.py brings us down to 857 unsolved xs19s.

The timestamp is 2019-06-24, so the "Well would you look who's back" is slightly misleading.

I agree with wildmyron.

It's the 500th most common 14-bit still-life (out of 619), with 181 natural occurrences:

The object page is here:

15G for a 160-bit still life ; as far as strict still lifes go, this is a lower glider-to-bit ratio than anything I've ever seen: (taken from the first C4_1 soup) x = 57, y = 57, rule = B3/S23 13bobo$14b2o$14bo3$26bo$27bo$25b3o3$25b2o$26b2o$25bo$56bo$54b2o$55b2o 2$36bo$34b2o$35b2o2$21bo$22bo$20b3o2...

That would be xq0_2702072 That implies that it's a period 0 spaceship (whatever that would be)--as it turns out, x0_2702072 is a perfectly valid apgcode A period 0 spaceship is a pattern that returns to its original state (up to a translation) whenever the generation number is a multiple of 0.

I see, but which part contains the programming for the rule that the metacell will emulate?

How do we know that there's not a soliton-like spaceship such that any collision between solitons has the same effect as if they passed straight through each other?
