Is this glider gun in B38/S23 known? x = 22, y = 16, rule = B38/S23 5$12bo$11b2o$11bo2bo$14b3o$13bobo$7bobo3b2o$7bob2o$10bo$10bo! Whether it is known or not, it sure is amazing. A statorless gun! A rough synthesis: x = 12, y = 19, rule = B38/S23 8b3o$10bo$9b3o3$b2o$o2bo$obo$bo3$2b2o$2b2o5$6b2o$6b2o...

rpentomino + blinker -> rpentomino + blinker in a different orientation (18 gens)
Can this be made into some sort of a diagonal caterpillar?

butterfly + 2 hives -> mold + 1 hive

That's not quite a multum in parvo.

Code: Select all

x = 246, y = 6, rule = B3/S23

oooooops.... my mistake

And I dunno why, but this does not seem to make any mutations... It does, eventually, at around (-90,-550), after around 173000 generations. And when I ran it to just past 250000 ticks, it suddenly created two new colonies a surprising distance from the rest of the herd. I assume those will eventua...

This is a dirty fuse for the p8 beehive puffer. I think this hasn't caught much attention, maybe because 1) it's dirty, and 2) it does not seem to have much use. x = 30, y = 177, rule = B3/S23 9bo4b2o4bo$8b3ob2o2b2ob3o$7b4o8b4o$6b2o2b2obo2bob2o2b2o$7bo14bo$6b2o 14b2o$4b2obob2o8b2obob2o$5bobo2b2o6b2o...

beacon + blinker precursor -> 2 pis -> 2 LWSSs with a lot of junk. Probably not useful.

Oh I got it.. Thanks!
Edit: Now it works well. Thanks a lot!

(Oh this post is pretty long) Some time ago I was crazy about schick engines. I spent quite a lot of time perturbing its debris with *WSSs by hand trying to make an interesting puffer. Well, that turned out to be a seconds-worth task using gencols... Or did it? Well... Today I learned how to use gen...

I've got no idea whether or not it was already known, but in any case I really like the mechanism it uses! Thanks a lot! I actually found it by chance :wink: Just for the record, here's one of the many strange objects built using blinker fuses back in 1992: (a sawtooth which uses the house fuse) We...

I am relatively new here and when I find an interesting pattern, I always wonder if the pattern was previously known or not. 1. Is this pattern known? (A p136 backrake) 2. Could you tell me where to look for discovered patterns other than the ones posted on 'Game of life links'? x = 88, y = 28, rule...

If anybody discovers a re-burnable fuse using ponds for a wick, that would be almost as good as blocks and blinkers as ponds are the only still lives other than blocks that can be synthesized without other debris with two anti-parallel gliders or two perpendicular gliders. Maybe something like this...

A p200, 7c/40 replicator in a band of with 6. It seems like a failed pulsar(if you draw two copies in a band of with 12) at first, but it makes complex behaviors after a few generations, and eventually replicates. ( I didn't know which thread to put this post on, in the case you consider this as CGO...

Two small c/2 spaceships in rule B0124/S12346 (I think it is omitted by mistake in D.Eppstein's site.)
