Lewis:

A random blob in that rule resembles an amoeboid, outstretching pseudopodia and depositing oscillators in its vicinity. The amoeboid appears to undulate whilst slowly expanding; its expansion is quite slow, and the boundary occasionally retreats with surprising rapidity.

There is an amoeboid rule with spaceships of 16 different known velocities, if I remember correctly. By comparison, Life has 12 known velocities (but infinitely many have been proven to exist), and B36/S245 has 13 known velocities.

Dean Hickerson proved that B3/S0123 is omniperiodic about 12 years ago. He exploited the fact that signals can travel in loops:

This rule seems ideal for David Eppstein's gsearch program, but I have been unable to get it to work properly. Does anyone have a working executable for gsearch?

Dean Hickerson proved that B3/S0123 is omniperiodic...

I've been searching for p5 knightships in B35/S0246 with no luck.

You'll be famous if you find anything in this searches. According to Eppstein's DB, all currently known knightships [in rules without B0] have period >=11 and dimensions <=12, which means they've been mostly discovered naturally and/or with brute-force programs:

Code: Select all

Glider 1364, size 5x4, speed c/13, slope 2, rule B358/S0346
Glider 1968, size 5x5, speed 2c/23, slope 2, rules B36/S01347 to B368/S013478
Glider 2893, size 6x5, speed c/13, slope 2, rules B3/S01367 to B38/S013678
Glider 2947, size 6x5, speed 3c/23, slope 3/2, rules B345/S126 and B3458/S126
Glider 2956, size 6x5, speed 2c/25, slope 2, rule B34578/S358
Glider 2957, size 6x5, speed 3c/26, slope 3, rule B357/S024578
Glider 2975, size 5x6, speed 2c/41, slope 2, rule B348/S2567
Glider 3341, size 6x6, speed 2c/11, slope 2, rules B356/S02456 and B3567/S02456
