We only have one EdgeShooting Glider to Loafer Converter, and it has a dreadfully long Repeat Time - … Can you give a link to that G-to-Loafer ? Thanks.

Using a G10 salvo that I found before (see precedents messages) and the Jormungant's H+2G=MWSS, I've made an edgy G-to-MWSS RT81 .

well, the clearance in not as good, but one has less timings to manage with this one reaction: x = 36, y = 58, rule = LifeHistory 4$6.11B$6.12B$6.6B2A4B$6.5B3AB2AB$6.6B2AB3AB2A$6.5B3AB2A2B2A$6.5B2A. 6B$6.3B.B4.4B$14.4B$13.4B$12.4B$11.4B$10.4B$9.4B$8.4B$7.4B$6.4B$5.4B$ 4.4B$3.4B$2.4B$.4B9$20.3A$19.3...

Since nobody decided to update the collection, I updated it myself. Changes: added new H-to-Gs. Moved some of the original ones around to their correct spots. Please tell me if I am missing anything There's two errors on row n°2. And it seems that mine is more up to date : x = 8028, y = 3710, rule ...

Using the Boat+2G=MWSS, I've made a stable G-to-MWSS RT61 . This not the smallest design, so it's more a kind of proof of concept and it works :) x = 239, y = 295, rule = LifeHistory 235.4B$234.4B$233.4B$232.4B$231.4B$230.A3B$229.BABA$228.2B2A$227.4B$ 226.4B$225.4B$224.4B$223.4B$222.4B$221.4B$220.4B...

Nice !
I will work on this.
The RT is 81 !
Thanks.

It's nice that the boat factory doesn't have to be precisely synchronized with the two gliders -- there are lots of relative timings that don't affect the repeat time.

Yes, but more the Boat is advanced more the "second domain" is restricted.

… but I suspect that the reaction in the BNE14T30 collides with the reaction behind it. …

Yes ! You're alright. This is exactly what appends.
The BN14T30 have a back reaction which interferes with the following signal.

Another unexpected thing : 2 Wings = 2 Gliders

@ Tawal : Thank You ! Actually do not need Herschel Input, a straight Glider Input would do, so we could attach any period Glider Gun to an edgy G to MWSS Converter - a truly low-period MWSS edge-shooting Gun might possibly be my best solution but I feel your edge shooting Converter will be very us...

… now need shorter RT. … One more time I tried to decrease the RT. But I've forgotten that the H-to-Boat has a RT115 ! And I don't find any other valid Boat factory. So there's a B-to-MWWS RT115 (of course it has bigger BD) : x = 246, y = 230, rule = LifeHistory 148.4D2.5D3.D4.D3.5D$148.D3.D3.D4.2D...

How to use "Tags" when my comment corresponds to another thread ?

For example, I posted in Oscillator Discussion Thread for a general comment.
I just edited the title of my post.
The best thing would be to have a link back to the appropriate topic.

Thanks

In general, it would be helpful if people gave a very brief description of how their patterns were found. Something as simple as "by hand", or "with X search program", or "completed a partial by so-and-so" would do.

I'll take that comment personally too

… now need shorter RT … The RT is impacted by the inserter. This conduit using the Boat+2G=MWSS can have a RT less than 90 I think (edit: I guess 83) But it's the only one inserter I found which work to make this 2G salvo. Edit: Sorry, but I don't find any other Block precursor which can offer an e...

Hmm. There's a path that's blocked by either of the two non-empty states, for a clean reset to "zero" of the three-way toggle: rle Offhand I can't quite think what that might be good for, though -- it would be nice if there was an output glider on one of the conversion stages. … It can be used as d...

Tawal, I <3 U ! Watch what I do with your Most EXCELLENT Converter - ( give me a few years though, O. K. ) Thank You ! It's a pleasure. There must be a way to get a better repeat time and bounding box. The principle is to go through a bit bait to produce an edgy block precursor. (edit: the bit bait...

Doesn't the original eater have a recovery time of 3 ticks?

Yes, the Eater1 recovers in 3 ticks.
But does the last reaction's cell count ? In this case, the RT is 4 ticks.
