Why hasn't a glider exploded yet?

There had been an extensive pattern collection at this site http://mysite.verizon.net/live_free/ . Does anyone know if this was saved anywhere else?

The Internet Wayback Machine has a snapshot of this site from March 2008:

The images haven't been saved, but all of the links seem to work. The pattern files files are on ( and linked from) this page:

It probably would be if that was it's speed. It's more likely to be the first c/5 orthogonal spaceship!

Here is a c/4 diagonal spaceship:

Thanks for reminding me of the wayback machine. Hadn't thought of that.

The ship I posted is c/4 orthogonal. A few c/5 orthogonal have already been found, as well as a 2c/5.

Edit1:
Here's my "essential" pattern collection for this rule, minus what's already posted in this thread. P5, p6, p8 oscillators; 4c/8, c/5, 2c/5 orthogonal ships, and a c/5 rake.

Indeed! Many apologies. :oops: I confused your c/4 spaceship with a c/5 spaceship which I had (re)discovered earlier - the one that you subsequently posted in your "essential" collection. Senility is a terrible thing! :)
Has anyone ever found a c/3 spaceship in this rule? It is strange to be able to find p5 spaceships more easily than p2 or p3.
Here is a (probably useless) p10 c/5 spaceship:

As I recall, the site had been updated with more recent patterns since that date (such as Josh Ball's c/5 and 2c/5 spaceships). Does anyone have a collection that is more up-to-date?

@Paul
The p10 c/5 ship is new. Looks neat, though I can't think of a use for it.
As far as I know no one has found a c/3 ship.

@Sokwe
I can try to collect and organize the various patterns I have found in this rule, though my records are incomplete.
Congratulations on finding the first gun in this rule! I had done similar searches without any luck.

Edit:
Also, here are two growing spaceships:

Hi all,

I'm the creator of Live Free or Die Universe, all that info is now available at lfod.wikispaces.com, which I just built in the past week or two. I just came across this thread thanks to Andrew Trevorrow, very excited to see some of the patterns that have been discovered in the past few years - especially psyched to see that there's a gun. If anybody's interested in joining the wiki let me know.

- Luke

PS -

I haven't seen a c/3 spaceship.

If you're interested in engineered patterns in this rule, definitely check out the zipped collection on the wiki - it includes a couple of very large flotillas including a backward rake for the small p6 ship ("free ship") posted above and a puffer that leaves a very dense trail of overlapping and interacting p19 oscillators (the "monster").

@Josh, Paul, and Matthias - I'd love to post the patterns listed here that I didn't know about to the wiki (particularly the gun, the c/4 orthogonal spaceship, the growing spaceships, and the c/5 spaceship) - let me know if you want to name them.

- Luke

@Luke: Glad to see you've got a new site. I have no preference for names of any objects I've found. I hope some renewed interest in this rule will lead to new discoveries.

With reference to this observation:

here are two period 12 ships. The second one contains several period 252 oscillators.

@Josh - Thanks for the c/5 collection, very cool. By the way, my old records claim there are multiple variations of the p8 "black widow" oscillator but all I have in my pattern collection is the one - do you have any others?

@Paul and Josh - Speaking of c/5, from what I can see Paul's p10 c/5 ship above is the only known p10 object - do you guys have anything else at p10?

@Brian - Those are what I call "anchor track flotillas", and they're quite useful. For other examples see Josh's engineered rake above or some others in my collection. (Along with rakes you can also build various puffers with interesting outputs.) They're definitely worthy of inclusion in a collection of patterns. It also bears mentioning that the smallest known p6 puffer, the smallest known p12 spaceship and puffer, and all the spaceships and puffers of extensible period are all flotillas, sometimes with several component parts.

Matthias and Paul, I'm going to take silence as assent and add your patterns to the wiki - let me know if you want anything renamed or removed!

Yes, that's what I call a 3-2 dot puffer with a tippy trailer. (http://lfod.wikispaces.com/tippy+trailer)

@Josh - Nice one! Interesting to see that it deletes its trails of dots in the same way as the dust mite ship (the small p8 c/2 below that you discovered a while back.)

Code: Select all

x = 15, y = 12, rule = s0/b2

Hi all,

I've decided to offer cash prizes for certain discoveries in Live Free or Die. They are:

$25.00 for any spaceship of an undiscovered speed. Currently known speeds are c, c/2, 2c/5, c/4, and c/5 orthogonal, and c/4 diagonal.

$25.00 for any moon reflector, that is, a stable or oscillating pattern that reflects a moon without suffering damage.

$50.00 for any stable moon reflector.

Good luck!

These prizes and a general list of undiscovered objects are posted here: http://lfod.wikispaces.com/Challenges
