### Re: Synthesising Oscillators

I am not sure how to build the starting 20-bit still-life for the P7
Herschel + butterfly --> that 20-cell still-life:

Code: Select all

x = 17, y = 9, rule = B3/S23
4bo3b2o$bo3bob2obo$2obobo4b2o$2o2b3o2b2o$5b2o$16bo$16bo$16bo$13b3o!
It came from the first soup on the Catagolue entry:

What do you do with ill crystallographers? Take them to the mono-clinic!

For the nth time, another two oscillators, both from known starting points:

I didn't see any soups for this trans version (although there were many for the corresponding cis version). I have recently added a new feature into my search page (which will become available the next time I do a major update) that can directly link from any search result to the corresponding Catagolue page. I've looked at every unsynthesized oscillator in my collection (e.g. P2s up to 17 bits, P3s up to 21 bits, most others up to 25 bits), and I have only found 3 that Catagolue lists soups for: two P15 and P16 orthogonally symmetrical P2s that you posted syntheses for earlier, and the one remaining mold-on-mold. It seemed like there were two basic ways of making the molds, one of which seemed workable. While I didn't use the method used in the soups directly (i.e. two molds being edge-shot together simultaneously), it inspired me to tweak the primary mold synthesis to allow one to edge-shoot a mold for just this purpose: Code: Select all x = 149, y = 25, rule = B3/S23 3bo$4bo$bb3o$$36bo24boo9bo8boo18boo18boo18boo18boo18boo23bobbo8b3o5b obbo16bobbo16bobbo16bobbo16bobbo16bobbo23bobobo15bobobo15bobobo15bobo bo15bobobo15bobobo15bobobobo22bobbo8b3o5bobbo16bobbo16bobbo16bobbo16b obbo16bobboboo25bo9bo9bo11boo6bo11boo6bo11boo6bo11boo6bo11boo6boobo 22bobo9bo7bobo11bobo3bobo11bobo3bobo11bobo3bobo11bobo3bobo11bobbobbobo 60bo19bo17bobo17bobo18bobobbo40bo34bo23bo12boo5bo20bo4b3o32boo35boo 33bobo27boobo6bo32bobo33boobboo32bo29bo5bo72bobo8boo70bo3bo3boo 102boo7boo3boo4bo102boo5bobobbobo106bo9bo125bo124boo118boo4bobo 119boo118bo!

I'm not sure what a "gourmet catalyst" is, but that is the standard way to make that still-life (2 gliders make an eater, 1 glider adds a boat-bit, 4 gliders add a tail). mniemiec Posts: 1107 Joined: June 1st, 2013, 12:00 am ### Re: Synthesising Oscillators Nicolay Beluchenko enumerated all P3 oscillators up to 20 bits, and I manually listed all 21-bit ones I could think of. A recent post (that I can't seem to locate) prompted me to look more closely at the cuphooks. I created a template for my still-life searcher to find all 22-bit still-lifes that were identical to the cuphooks, except with the pre-block replaced by a block. It found 8 more that I had previously overlooked. (I subsequently discovered a similar template that I had apparently used in 1998 to find all the 18-20 bit ones, but had completely forgotten about). The first is a trivial variant of a 20-bit one without a hook. The next three can be synthesized with standard components, with little adjustment. The last four can be synthesized from 20-bit still-lifes that do not yet have syntheses.
