B35/S236

[SuperJedi224]

This is a highly explosive rule, in which almost any sufficiently large pattern will quickly evolve into a spacefiller-like structure, with large numbers of spaceships often emerging from the surface.

Still lifes in common with Life include the block, the tub, the ship, and the barge. Oscillators in common with Life include the blinker and the beacon.

And here's a common 2c/5 orthagonal spacehip:

Code: Select all

x = 4, y = 5, rule = B35/S236

OK, who's next? Adding B8 to get rulestring B358/S236? It has Gun#Guns_in_Life-like_cellular_automata and similar reactions.

A p2 eater for the small 2c/5 ship.

I've spent some time searching for a stable eater. No luck, but I can say any such pattern must have a large active area ( > 5x5 ), a long recovery time ( > 15 gen ), or most likely both.

[LaundryPizza03]

I've looked for a 3c/8o and concluded using qfind that there is no ship on odd symmetry at width 9, but that search reached a final depth of around 700. However, the search space for width 10 expands too quickly to use qfind, and I have too many searches runnign right now, so if you could run it in zfind.

[LaundryPizza03]

Let's focus on universal construction. We know that there are push and pull reactions for the block, as documented here, as well as a reaction where a block-deletion reaction can kick a ship sideways. A modification of the delay line memory salvo can place a block:

Can the c/3o be constructed using gliders? Is there a construction arm that doesn't get destroyed after one use?

Bump! p68 technology is mature but what about p24 based widgets in this rule?

Eppstein did construct a p216 gun with it. Components include 90- and 180-degree reflectors and a doohickey that delays a glider by 5 generations. He also showed how to make a p408 gun compatible with both technologies.
