Counterfeit Gliders

Post by Saka » January 16th, 2017, 5:54 am

A small thread I would like to start to post regular life spaceships but different. Like these

Code: Select all

x = 3, y = 3, rule = B3-nqr4acew5y6/S1e2-a34wz
3o$o$bo!

Code: Select all

x = 3, y = 3, rule = B2e3/S23ir
b2o$obo$2bo!

Code: Select all

x = 3, y = 3, rule = B2c3/S1e23-j
2o$b2o$o!

Code: Select all

x = 3, y = 3, rule = B3-j/S1c234nt
obo$b2o$bo!
They are all gliders but different...

Does this count? I find this one quite funny:

Code: Select all

x = 3, y = 3, rule = B3/S1e2-e3
2o$b2o$o!
It's pretty much the Life version of rickrolling.

This one's almost trivial:

Code: Select all

x = 3, y = 3, rule = B2a3a4r/S3j

Here's one in a B0 rule:

Surprised the "spinning glider" from Move/Morley hasn't been posted yet:

The third rule also contains the last glider from the OP, as well as a new c/7 diagonal:

drc searched a rule with a few close WSS variants a while ago, not sure if these count as counterfeits but whatever.

Sorry, but we're focusing on spaceships

Those tripped me up once. So, out of curiosity, I put two gliders one cell apart, and they start spinning. I think, "Hey, I've discovered a new oscillator!" And then I look at the top of the window and instead of [Life] it says [Morley].
There is life on Mars. We put it there with not-completely-sterilized rovers.
And, for that matter, the Moon, Jupiter, Titan, and 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko.

Something I found on the forums:

Code: Select all

x = 29, y = 29, rule = B2ei3eikqry4ceijkr5aciknq6aein7c8_S1c2cen3-iqr4aqwz5-inr6cikn78
o$bo$2o
Doesn't match a glider in one of its phases, though it is a glider minus one cell in its first phase. Also, same velocity.

A counterfeit LWSS which looks like one in both phases:

Code: Select all

x = 22, y = 5, rule = B3/S23-ijn4a

Any sufficiently advanced software is indistinguishable from malice.

++WOW

Someone now really can play with alternating rules ( life in odd, B3/S23-ijn4a in even generations) Incredibly many oblique spaceships could be generated with this method!
