Rakes and Puffers

[PM 2Ring]

Here's my first attempt at constructing a slow rake. It uses the well-known T-tetromino reaction. It generates a new glider every 64 generations. It's not very compact, but I think it looks kinda cute.

This pattern uses two rakes, combining the gliders using the kickback reaction to produce a rake that sends gliders forward.

Here are a few of them combined to make a backwards shooting LWSS rake, with a glider rake following it to delete the spaceships.

This pattern uses two rakes, combining the gliders using the kickback reaction to produce a rake that sends gliders forward.

There's a much cheaper way of converting backward gliders to forward gliders:

Definitely much neater. Thanks, calcyman.

I'm sure I've seen that reaction before, but I'm still just learning about such mobile construction techniques. These things aren't so easy to look up. I usually just look at other puffers / breeders to see if there are reactions I can utilize. I'm sure there are plenty of neat tricks that I simply haven't noticed purely because the patterns they are in are a bit advanced for me, and I get overwhelmed.

The back HWSS can also be moved forward one space.

Here are some 3 spaceship formations that turn gliders (and may also change the glider phase). Found by a script that still needs considerable work (I'll post it when it gets less false positives). Inspired by reading in the Life Lexicon article on Glider Turners that "small rearrangements of the back two spaceships can alternatively send the output glider into any of the other three directions." Yeah, right. My script checked over 100,000 variations of rear ss placement & phase to find these ones. But I should admit that quite a few rejected combinations are usable as glider turners, but they leave extra debris, usually a block.

Edit.

Here are over 50 glider turners / rephasers, found by my improved script. It rejected well over a million patterns to find these, and only got 3 false positives. The rear HWSSs have been tested with x & y offsets from -8 to +8, testing all 4 spaceship phases (starting from the configuration given in the Life Lexicon).

I also built LWSS & HWSS ortho rakes over the weekend; I'll post them here shortly.
