If your question is can you construct them with a glider collision, then I think the argument you're getting at is: no, because the oscillator has a finite number of states, and when you run it in reverse it cannot "remember" when then collision occurred to construct it. This is true, so you cannot...

Quick question, is it possible to have a constructor in a reversible rule such as Margolus Critters? Oscillators seem theoretically impossible to create, as it would require at least two different states that lead to the same state. Those being; one of the oscillator's repeating states, and any stat...

Isn't there already like 1-3 Margolus Critters threads?

This one seems like a MC general thread:? viewtopic.php?f=11&t=3918

Extendable without altering initial pop, just move the single cells further away from the block.
You guys can figure the numbers I guess.

Layz Boi

Why is this the case? I'm no quantum rocket surgeon, but I want to guess that it's because they have a partial of ship/breeder/stretcher/moving-object that easily occurs in a particular symmetry. This theoretical partial also should have the same symmetry as the patterns' symmetry along the edge of...

Just in case someone hadn't noticed yet; this rule supports Walled Cities-esque oscillators. Here are some, periods 2-22, all found by starting with a 16x16 hollow diamond shape, drawing inside the diamond and waiting until the chaos stabilizes then removing unwanted oscillating areas as needed. x =...
