Oscillators Made up of Spaceships (OMS)

Post by Rhombic » October 9th, 2017, 10:17 am

This includes the natural ones that have been found up to now where it's a glider colliding with an object endlessly (where removal of that still life results in regeneration of the spaceship).
Implications:
data storage without fancy still life boat-bit discoveries
can be synthesised from further away and tend to be two gliders / glider and still life
regeneration results in an already existing spaceship being emitted, so data read is easier

First attempt

Code: Select all

x = 3, y = 9, rule = B3aijn4j5eqr/S02-ci3-a4-ackt5cijr678
2bo$2o$b2o4$2o$b2o$o!

Code: Select all

x = 9, y = 4, rule = B3-cery4iqt5aey/S02-c3-ekq4acity5cejqy6ekn7c8
bo$2bo3b3o$3o3bo$7bo!

Code: Select all

x = 3, y = 9, rule = B2i3aeijn4aejn5akq6c/S2-c3ajknr4an5jq6ein8
o$b2o$2o4$2o$b2o$o!

Code: Select all

x = 8, y = 4, rule = B3-ceky6a/S02-n3-ce4iy5a6ck

This one is already well-known, but nobody seemed to notice that it is an OMS:

Code: Select all

x = 4, y = 5, rule = B2/S0
o2bo$b2o2$b2o$o2bo!
It's called "the monster". It's almost technically not an OMS because of the plus sparks, but the moons are present in exactly 3 of its 19 phases.

Code: Select all

x = 4, y = 3, rule = B3-q4z5y/S234k5j

But half of this osc is a c/7 spaceship in this rule but not in 2x2

Possibly the most versatile OMS:

Code: Select all

x = 4, y = 6, rule = B2ce/S1
3bo$b2o3$b2o$o!
Works from B2ce/S1 to B2-ai3aikqy45678/S12aei345678, or 2^84 rules.

How to break it up:

Code: Select all

x = 14, y = 11, rule = B2ce/S1
12bo2$12b2o3$3bo$b2o3$b2o$o!

Code: Select all

x = 4, y = 3, rule = B3-q4z5y/S234k5j

The spaceship by itself, a 3c/8o:

When I get to my computer, I will probably check if it works in my rule.

Bump

Probably the second known elementary example from an OT rule; it was found in apgsearch by dmqwerty in May 2020. (The spaceship is 2c/4o, and this oscilllator is p260)

Code: Select all

x = 10, y = 10, rule = B024/S0123
o$2o$o6$8bo$7b3o!
EDIT: It was actually found by Rocknlol in 2016; see here.

Fascinating OMoS, but are you forgetting the monster which you pointed out earlier on this page, or is it excluded on a technicality?
The 5S project (Smallest Spaceships Supporting Specific Speeds) is now maintained by AforAmpere. The latest collection is hosted on GitHub and contains well over 1,000,000 spaceships.

Semi-active here - recovering from a severe case of LWTDS.

In order:p2, p4, p4, p12, p14
It is also on Catalogue, there are more oscillators there, the ones I put (including the OMOS) are from a 1000x1000 soup.
