EDIT by dvgrn: Moved this out of Herschel conduits thread, because it's not a Herschel-to-Herschel conduit. It might go in the H-to-G thread, except that this the output glider is the standard SW-2 output glider. There could possibly be some sparks around the edges that could be useful somehow, so I didn't quite want to delete the post outright. If someone can suggest a better place to put this, please report the post and give the thread number.

it can remove a block:

it's pretty sparky so it may be useful

p5 pi-heptomino to U-turner

Code: Select all

x = 23, y = 13, rule = B3/S23

the way it outputs the U keeps it from connecting to a solid chunk of known U-turner accepting conduits, so it's usefulness at the moment is meh at best, although a conduit with catalysts only "above" the U would connect so that might be worth exploring.

My post in keeping track of dirty conduits:

Dirty H-to-2G:

Code: Select all

x = 28, y = 31, rule = LifeHistory

This is actually 3H-to-2G.

It delivers a natural B which evolves in H.

I already found some useful patterns (also some useless ) as you can see here :

viewtopic.php?f=2&t=4994&p=175800#p175800 (dirties H-to-G)

I really think this reaction deserves more research than mine.

Edit:
Better visualization and get the exact envelope of the bringing reaction.

Looks like there's also enough clearance that this could be done with a glider to block, keeping the minimal repeat time (as long as you don't mind prepending some bulky stuff to pre-deliver a glider to the glider-to-block at the right time.)

Without the Jubjub reflector, the first natural glider of the output Herschel goes on a lane exactly between two other gliders in the same direction, and all three gliders have to be somehow eaten, to avoid damaging the contraption.
Before that, I tried several more compact possibilities, but the glider going to the G-to-block arrived either too soon or too late. Most likely there is something along these lines that is both reasonably compact and working, though.

FYI the B-heptimo doesn't work because the block is too far away
...

I've made an engineering cleanup but it is too slow.
I also notice that the Loaf+Block constellation is an OTT(+block) and it works with the FNG directly 180° reflected 0hd.
The shifted glider can delete the top blinker if is in right timing (Jubjub reflector doesn't work sadly, need a CP_180°_0hd).

I also notice that the Loaf+Block constellation is an OTT(+block) and it works with the FNG directly 180° reflected 0hd.
The shifted glider can delete the top blinker if is in right timing (Jubjub reflector doesn't work sadly, need a CP_180°_0hd).

Note that "CP" and "CC" refer to colour-preserving and colour-changing respectively (positioning of glider lanes, rather than timing). In particular, all "same lane" 180-degree reflectors are necessarily colour-changing (CC).

I believe deletion of that blinker could be done with a same-lane 180-degree reflector with a different parity (glider delayed or advanced by an odd number of ticks).
Unfortunately, all same-lane stable 180-degree reflectors I know about have the exact same timing (which matches the timing of the longboat used as a one-time 0hd 180-degree reflector):
