Speaking of waves: Here is a c/5 wave (shown moving to the left):

Could you help me to find completions?

[yaochen2]

I don't have the scripts necessary to complete waves. However, I just found a new 2c/5 spaceship. What makes it special is that in one of its phases, it is only 8 cells thick.

Code: Select all

x = 8, y = 30, rule = B3/S23

It's not new. It's already in the jslife collection.

Please, check the collections before saying "I found a new blah blah blah". A spaceship with such a small size is obviously not new. Please stop spamming. Please.

He's not spamming.

But yeah check the collections first and most small ships of 2c/5, c/2, c/3 are known.
The "A spaceship with such a small size is obviously not new." is false, take a look at the copperhead. We havent yet ruled out a 3c/23o ship in a 15x15 bounding box.

You contributes [sic] nothing to CA. For example, in the script thread, you ask other people to do all the things for you. No one will specifically design a script just for you to run. Now, you began to post unconstructive comments "I don't have the scripts necessary to complete waves" and claim false discoveries.

Stop it Hunting, if you can't be nice to new users then it is better for you to just not say anything. Everyone started as a noob, and we learn from our mistakes.

To make this post more worthwhile, this page:

Says that there is a positive result for c/7o at width 21 gutter. Where is that? Editing mistake? (Section zfind 2.0)

I would be inclined to answer "no".
The rest of the ship would have to stay directly behind the HF predecessor even in its hassled state, which would interfere with its return to its original state in gens 4-6. You'd have much better luck inhibiting the extra bit that hassles the HF predecessor such that you get a symmetrical front end, and indeed there are several c/3s with that front end.

A small 4c/8 beehive puffer that I'm not finding prior art for (crossposted from the Discord):

Though not the smallest overall, it's smaller than the one in jslife-moving/c2-extended/c2-0008-puf.rle that forms the beehive in a similar way (although not quite as resilient), which might reduce some fuse-based constructions.

[Sokwe]

Is there a collection of w19 symmetric c/5 ships?

There's a few of them in jslife, but I don't know if there's a full collection of them. Sokwe might know. I think C/5 w18 even symmetric ships were completely enumerated, but I don't know about w19 odd symmetric.

I don't remember there being anything other than what's shown in jslife. A week of qfind searching (with the 'x' parameter to disable output while deepening). I'm not sure how well people have gotten LSSSS to handle finding multiple spaceships, but that might be another possibility.

A complete knightt search for that speed and symmetry would probably take a very long time. I've wanted to update qfind to build the full search tree like knightt, but I haven't figured out how to handle search tree recombination, and I simply haven't had time recenty.

By the way, nice work on those c/5 diagonal ships. There seem to be some loose connections that could allow for different completions.

[Sarp]

The backend was completed with a known part, but the LSSS search that found this is ongoing.

I have continued AforAmpere's search, and found the new narrowest known (I think) c/5d, which I call the noodle:

The new component has a quite sparky backend.

[praosylen]

The backend was completed with a known part, but the LSSS search that found this is ongoing.

I have continued AforAmpere's search, and found the new narrowest known (I think) c/5d, which I call the noodle:

Code: Select all

rle

A reduction in population (which also applies to AforAmpere's recent ships):

It's worth noting that the ships coming out of this search are only tied for the second narrowest known, since Tim Coe's 63-cell ship is thinner by two rows:

The upper right front part is borrowed from a c/5 wickstretcher by Matthias Merzenich (sokwe), also contained in his jslife-moving-master collection, as well as the rear corner oscillator parts.

Im sure, the right corner can be simplified a lot, but at least it works. Unfortunately, I have no clue how to complete the right wing! My naive search approaches all failed. So I could need some help.

Edit:

The pattern is not only incomplete, but faulty.

Meanwhile, here is a c/5 wickstretcher based on the same theme:

The way I consider box-like spaceships is that they are not hollow (they have many cells), has more than 1 cell at the edge of the spaceship (the cell is close to the corner of the ship). Basically, a solid spaceship that fills in a box nicely. It would be better if there are more than 5 cells at every edge of the boxship in every phases. I would like to see boxships at most speeds.

Are there c/4 (1c/4) diagonal spaceships that doesn't contain a glider like component at the front and are not glide-symmetric and not asymmetric?

It's quite sparky, although I'm having trouble finding useful glider collisions with it that could assist in making a puffer.
