When there were multiple ships with the same minimum population, the one with the smaller bounding box was chosen.

My search no longer seems to be finding new ships, so I will probably stop it soon.

I was more referring to pages for the smallest ship of each period, rather than the speeds themselves. By the looks of it, there doesn't seem to be pages created on any 2c/6 ships and only one for 3c/9.



Anyways, are there any speeds that are currently a top priority to discover? I'd say (2,1)c/6 and (2,1)c/7, not only because of the obvious and unfortunate fact that elementary knights are still not within our knowledge (after almost 50 years...), but that these are the simplest periods we haven't yet discovered; we have c/2, c/3, (1,0), (2,0) and (1,1)c/4 and 5, and (1,0), (2,0), (3,0) and (1,1)c/6 and 7, leaving only the (2,1)s. Thus completing all direction and period variations of ships up to and including period 7.

I would say that no particular speed is a priority. The priority when running searches is wherever you can push the boundary of what's been done before.

Personally, I most want to see a (2,1)c/6 ship, or really any elementary oblique spaceship. I would also like to see improvements of the results in the spaceship search status table, even for speeds that already have ships.

Here's a 2c/6 ship I overlooked because it was very similar to one of the other ships I found (see the first edit of this post):

Would you recommend any specific search program for spaceship finding, or should diets be varied?

Currently I only have WLS which I can just almost understand how to use, and that's it. I don't have grind or zfind. Could someone be as kind as to ELI5 how to set those up?

Nice ships! Here's an attempt to optimize them.
I couldn't find an up-to-date collection of c/3s. Where could I find them??
Due to limited resources on c/3 ships I can find, my reductions are probably not optimal.

1) Probably all new ships can be shrunk like this:

I just finished a zfind-s search for a c/7 orthogonal width-20 symmetric ship. Surprisingly, no ships were found. This means that the thinnest even-symmetric c/7 orthogonal ship is just two loafers side-by-side. The search took about 1111 cpu hours.

Jason Summers' "lots of spaceships" collections might be what you're looking for. Also, I think this post contains the most up-to-date collection of small c/3 ships.
muzik wrote:I don't have grind or zfind. Could someone be as kind as to ELI5 how to set those up?
gfind and zfind are c programs, so they need to be compiled with a c compiler. For Windows you could use the GCC implementation that comes with either Cygwin or MinGW. If you have a 64-bit computer, you should use MinGW-w64 in place of MinGW.

I already have Cygwin installed from setting up apgmera a year ago. What are the main differences between setting up apgmera and setting up g/zfind, and will I need to install any more packages?

As long as you have GCC you should be fine. To compile gfind, save the code as "gfind.c". Then open a Cygwin terminal and change directories to wherever gfind.c was saved. Finally, run "gcc gfind.c -O3 -o gfind". Compiling zfind works essentially the same way.

Once the programs are successfully compiled, you can run "./gfind c" or "./zfind c" from the command terminal to get a list of options.

Right, so stupid question: how do I change directories?

"directory" needs to be replaced with the path to the folder containing gfind.c. In Windows, find gfind.c in the file browser. Right click on gfind.c and select properties. There should be a field labeled "location" that tells you the exact path to the folder containing gfind.c. Use this path in place of the word "directory".

Edit: Is this 4c/8 ship known? I don't remember seeing it before.

Right, so I ma anger to get into the location, and running the first command gives a delay implying that it's getting compiled, but then:

Code: Select all

$ gfind c
-bash: gfind: command not found

Sorry, that's my fault. You need to run "./gfind c" to get the options. Any further questions belong in the how to use gfind topic.

Almost getting the hang of it - managed to rediscover the LWSS, dart and glider through obvious means.
Got an ever growing amount of questions though, so will post these in the dedicated thread.

Keep in mind that c/8 has been searched up to a search width of 9 for all symmetry types (see the spaceship search status table), so these partials have been seen and posted before. c/8 partials from the width-9 searches were posted here and here.

How would one actually go about looking for new c/8 ships then? Of course, width 10 hasn't been searched yet, but is there anything I'm missing (which there definitely is)?

You could try a width-10 search but it would probably take a long time to find anything (maybe more than a year). The other possibility is to take a known partial that has a width-10 part and try to extend it at a lower width. For example, start with one of these gutter symmetric partials. Look for a place where the total width is 19, but then goes back down to 17. Then use the extension instructions for zfind to try to find an extension using odd symmetry instead of gutter symmetry.

I must caution you: finding a c/8 ship will probably not be easy. You would need to do a lot of experimenting and you will run into many dead ends.

By the way, I am currently working on a new program that is a combination of zfind and gfind (I first mentioned this here). I have not started work on the multi-threading part yet, but the simple single-threaded version is nearing completion. My recent ship discoveries (starting here) are a result of testing this new program. Once the multi-threaded version is complete, it will probably be the best tool for searching for c/8 orthogonal spaceships (as long as your computer has more than one CPU).
