Here is an mindblowing way to synthetize a 18-cell object using 2 eaters. I tried to make a spark, but the generator I found could win the prize of the ugliest one ever made.

No. It is unknown how many three-glider collisions there are. But a way to search is to simply add one more glider to a messy two-glider reaction.

I guess the 2G mess may have itself thousands, possibly millions of possibilities...

This could be done much more cheaply (15+) if the eater could be dropped into place after the fact; unfortunately, all the mechanisms I am aware of that can do this either add a boat or block, and later convert it into a snake/carrier/eater (unusable because a boat or block in that position would get attacked before it could be transformed), or add an eater/snake/carrier with one forward bit first (unusable because they would attack the still-life before being added), or the one glider approaching from the northwest snags the top of the still-life on the way in. This glider needs to hit the dying spark in just the right way to turn it into an eater. The failing middle step is shown working below on a less obtrusive object (a beehive). Perhaps someone can figure out how to make this troublesome glider less obtrusive (perhaps by replacing it by an equivalent spark)?:

This is another 16-bit still-life that I haven't been able to quite put together. I have both top and bottom halves; unfortunately, one glider from each piece passes through the other piece. I'm sure the two pieces can both be made more efficiently, and likely in a non-conflicting way. (Shown are generations 0, 25, 26, 27 of both halves, plus combined result. The key part to the bottom also has a simpler predecessor, shown below it):

For the still-life that can make griddles on both sides, this predecessor can make it. Unfortunately, getting the blinker where it needs to be will be problematic. (It might be possible to do something equivalent by tying a boat or something similar onto the corner of the pre-block, and then flipping it up, but I haven't been able to find anything that works yet).
Actually, for the desired results, the two arms could just as easily end up pointing in opposite directions, if making that would be any easier, although it's likely to be similarly difficult. I have a partial attempt; it needs three sparks. Unfortunately, two of them need to be too close together: the problematic barge-lengthener (same problem as with the first method), and a blinker+plus+bit. I'm sure the latter can be made much less obtrusively from below, which might make this actually possible.

Congratulations. You've figured out the most important step in trying to synthesize something - i.e. identifying a possible predecessor. The next part is trying to determine whether it's viable or not (i.e. can you find ITS predecessor, and so on, back to the point where you can cut and paste known mechanisms like gliders or standard sparks.)

Here, look at your first predecessor, and try to think of how you could get that in place. Just think back one generation. Look at the top right bit in the bottom left spark. Think about how that bit could possibly get there without having touched either either before. This will likely be a challenging problem. (Sometimes, you CAN get away with having such sparks come from attached pieces, like inducting blocks, boat bits, etc. that can be used as springboards for bringing in sparks.

Don't worry too much about "ugly". Ugly is worse than "elegant", but much better than "impossible". Once you have a viable solution for something, THEN comes the process of optimization. First do something correctly, then only later try to do it better.

Another thing that comes with time is determining the relative cost of adding pieces. In this particular case, turning an eater head into a claw takes 2 gliders, so it may be easier to start with the simpler "two back to back siamese eaters" still-life, and then add the two claws later. But as I said earlier, this is an optimization, and only something to worry about once you actually have found a viable solution first. It's likely that many syntheses you come up with first won't be optimal (i.e. they won't push the state of the art forward) but they can be good practice in learing how to do things, so once you're proficient, you may well advance the art.

I used to have a web site with thousands of syntheses on it. Unfortunately, it's down at the moment, but I'm working on a massive overhaul which should be hopefully be up sometime early next year. Right now, you can download many synthese directly from the front page of the Lifewiki on this site. Looking at those can be quite informative. Some syntheses are "atomic" (i.e. a few gliders smash together to do something), but most are composed of many small steps, and looking at all the steps can be quite educational.

Great! I've always had trouble synthesizing that diagonal hook. I wonder if something like this could be used to make the related 16-bit still-life?

Good! The interior is easily buildable. It may be possible to build it (say) from the closed tube between two houses or bookends, which can be selectively destroyed. I'm not sure whether this will work, but it's much better than before (i.e. I had no clue how one could build this)!

Yes, it seems as if any predecessor with an ON cell in line with the eaters' tails -- even the simplest variant, like this:

x = 10, y = 11, rule = B3/S23
8bo$2o6bo$o5bobo$b3o2bo$3bo2bo2$3bo2bo$3bo2b3o$bobo5bo$bo6b2o$bo!
-- begs the question of how to get that key cell to turn on without affecting either of the two eaters. If you're allowed to start with four eaters, you might be able to collapse two of them -- a small spark added to the following pattern might produce the above six-cell spark:

Code: Select all

x = 10, y = 11, rule = B3/S23
$2o6bo$o8bo$b3o2b3o$3bo2bo2$3bo2bo$b3o2b3o$o8bo$bo6b2o!
But building those four eaters is starting to look pretty expensive...?

I couldn't figure out how to make the proper pre-beacon in any other way. Is there a better way, like from a ship, instead of this difficult-to-place 14-bitter? (A good way to edgeshoot a boat would also work, as we would then simply use two of them at once to get from a tub to that 14-bitter.)

EDIT: Found the missing step to solve at least one of the 16-bitters:

Code: Select all

It's interesting that they both slide one space. Combining two copies of the table-to-cap one can make both cis- and trans- versions of cap on cap (depending on whether you use line or point symmetry) from 8 gliders, and since the trans- version already takes 8, this makes this at least equivalent as the best solution so far.

This can be reduced by 3 gliders, by attaching the bookend-with-tub directly. (I didn't have this mechanism, but seeing how you did it, I remembered that a common mechanism for puffing out a tub-like protrusion was to attach a diagonal bit to a corner block just as it's attaching. In this case, it takes 2 gliders to do then, rather than 5 later.) It turns out that both primary ways of making this still-life take 5 gliders, and the tub can be added for 2 more to both of them:

Thanks! This is indeed viable, and here is a 30-glider synthesis (based on a 26-glider synthesis of the related 18-bit still-lifes with boats instead of hooks; I couldn't remove the one-bit sparks, but at least they were benign):

I just found a simple 3-glider beehive-to-boat converter, which is better than the previous 2 step beehive-to-block-to-boat method, saving 2 gliders. This improves at least 8 candelfrobra-variant syntheses. I'm not sure where else it would come in handy:

At first, this was one of the 16-bit still-lifes that I thought would be very difficult to synthesize, as it forms a loop, and such objects always pose problems. But then I thought that since it was trivial to turn a carrier into a canoe, perhaps both sides could be turned simultaneously? This turns out to be the case, just needing a slightly-customized spark, so this can be made from merely 12 gliders:

No, this is new! In the past, I had tried various different approaches to make this, without success. This mechanism also looks like it might be useful in some other places too.
Extrementhusiast wrote:I found this:
Interesting. This was previously buildable (bun-on-snake, and add tail), but this mechanism is still interesting. It also looks like this mechanism might be adaptible to other situations. I'm always interesting in anything that can make an inducting snake (in any orientation), as a large percentage of unsolved pseudo-still-lifes involve inducting snakes.
Exrementhusiast wrote:I've noticed that the boat-turning component is unnecessarily large:
Great! I'll have to see where this is used. I remember a fair number of 16-bit still-lifes use this either directly, or indirectly.
Sokwe wrote:Another reduction by one glider:
I always figured that the top part should be doable with 3 gliders. This should reduce many other things as well!
Extrementhusiast wrote:Found the missing step for one of the Elkies's P5 variants:
This is so simple and obvious, I wonder why it was never found before. There are quite a few synthesis that turn an eater into a block-on-table using a convoluted round-about method (that doesn't fit here), and I think many of them can be greatly optimized by doing them this way!
Sokwe wrote:These syntheses are possibly already known:
Both of these create an interesting T-shaped omino, which just happens to be a exactly the component I was just looking for yesterday while trying to synthesize an obscure c/2 spaceship with an odd tag-along. I will have to see if this can fit there. The first one is new. It uses 9 gliders, the same as the existing synthesis. The second one is new, but at 8 gliders is not optimal. Here are (I think?) Dave Buckingham's earlier 7-glider synthesis, plus a new 5-glider one from Boris Shemyakin from last year:

I'm not sure how easy it would be to put the two bridged shillelaghs there in place. While this particular synthesis has now been obviated (see my synthesis from yesterday above), this does bring up an interesting way of making a single canoe, which may prove useful in some situations where a canoe wraps closely around something else.
Extrementhusiast wrote:Finished yet another of the 16-bitters in 48 gliders:
Nice! I'll need to remember this method. One problem I frequently run into is wanting to use a mechanism that's ridiculously easy with a trans-carrier, but impossible with a cis-carrier. In many cases (like this one), the trans-carrier can't just be put in place and flipped later because it's unstable per se. However, this way of building in place with scaffolding, and then removing the scaffolding while flipping it, might be expensive, but it may make some other previously unbuildable objects possible. One I was looking at this morning can't use this exactly as shown, but might be amenable to a modified version of it:

Nice! When I had posted my attempts to make this, I had tried all the old things, plus dozens of new variants to do this eater-to-snake reduction, but all of them snagged the hook on the bottom left. This less obtrusive version might also be useful in some other cases where the old ones were inadequate.

Oops! I saw all of these, but I only counted them as 1. i didn't pay close enough attention to notice that the "same as above, only different" was a different still-life rather than a different synthesis. I also forgot about the two derived snake-to-carrier variants. It would have all eventually gotten settled when I went to merge them all into the synthesis database on my home computer.

I think I have 46 outstanding there, and I count 10 new ones here, leaving 36. Perhaps I miscounted, but it should become pretty clear when I merge all the wonderful new posts into the database. Regardless of the exact count, a 25% reduction in one week is quite impressive. At this rate, by the end of the year, they may all be finished!
