The rule B138/S has an interesting property:

Code: Select all

x = 27, y = 31, rule = B138/S
20bo6$26bo4$8bo2$8bo12$18bo6$o7bo!
So long as all live cells have the same parity of both their x and y coordinate--thus looking like a grid of dots--this will hold true at every even generation thereafter.

EDIT: It appears to be emulating a non-totalistic rule, too.

A rule which I believe to be B13-aery5akry8/S03aekry5cijnq7. [citation needed]

Kinda looks like this:

x = 1, y = 1, rule = 1/1/5

#C [[ AUTOSTART AUTOFIT ]]
For full effect, run at 8^1 in Golly
1/1/4 and 1/1/6 are similar

Well that basically destroys my whole orthogonal collection thing, if you can manage to get a similar rule that does orthogonal speeds as well.

Well not really! Just add "unique" to the rules of the collection! You can also use these as spacefillers for missing speeds.

Now you just need to find an infinite set of spaceships with speed c/(2n+1) p(2n+1) so all 1c/x speeds will have an example. :D

I wonder, will elementary adjustable directions in a Life-like CA be possible?

EDIT: that sexy rule also has an elementary c/5:

Code: Select all

x = 3, y = 3, rule = B2c3ae4ai56c/S2-kn3-enq4
2bo$3o$2bo!
Doesnt seem to be an explosive rule, so apgsearching it might be a fun activity

Seems like a smart idea, although you could also use these as placeholders until you get a non-extendable spaceship of that speed
