Moves the block exactly 3 cells diagonally.
If modified, can perhaps act as an HWSS heisenburp.

You could call it a "dirty 1hd lane shifter". It uses a spark from a block pull to turn a boat into a glider. Reactions like that, where the glider heads off in the direction that a boat or ship or longboat was pointing toward, are quite common in splitters made from OTTs plus, um, pointy vessels. Example:

Code: Select all

x = 30, y = 25, rule = LifeHistory

$7.4B10.4B$6.4B12.B3C$5.4B14.C2B$4.4B16.C$3.4B$2.4B$.4B!

Here the OTT will produce the same 90-degree output glider with or without the extra longboat, so the longboat just gives an additional output and makes it into a splitter.

Sometimes the production of the glider is pretty much the same, but the boat/ship/longboat helps absorb a leftover active reaction instead of a spark. Examples:

x = 77, y = 25, rule = LifeHistory

What is a "pointy vessel"? Do you mean ships, boats and their extensions?

EDIT by dvgrn (to not distract from the next question): I just didn't want to type "boat or ship or longboat" twice in a row. That's what I meant by "pointy vessels". Please don't think of it as official terminology -- "vessel" did get defined on the LifeWiki years back, but it's never been used much at all, so I'm still not clear that it should have ever been added there.
