It is possible to replace tub to glider or any 2G combination (for example, Pi or B heptomino), not 3G?
Yes.
Code: Select all
x = 29, y = 19, rule = B3/S23

Also, the loaf and traffic light predecessor are used to make an I-sequence, which is a common active region and therefore has a three-glider synthesis. Taking advantage of this saves another glider.

The fast component that you still works with the new version of the synthesis, as does another.

The first synthesis uses a component that can be generalized to more still-lives.

Also, if one is clever, one can use it to turn a ship into a bookend by using a ship predecessor instead of a ship that is already there. This works at two timings when making the ship from a pond.

Lastly, for your last synthesis, Catagolue knows a way to synthesize the blinker and one of the beehives with three gliders. I've submitted the following to Catagolue, which will reduce the glider cost of the corresponding still life by one glider.

Overall, I'd say that you're catching on quickly, and you also seem to have a knack for finding good cleanups manually (although you should be aware that there are programs for that). Keep up the good work.
I am tentatively considering myself back.
