Herschel of Ostropol

A pattern with a forward-moving mechanism which completes 1.00 or more cycles but is then overtaken by its ash. The forward moving mechanism subsequently emerges from the ash and the process repeats. Could such an object exist?

Here's a rule called Construction. A random pattern is generated for the construction workers. The workers will form walls on the outside but faster construction inside sometimes knock the walls down. Once they get the entire outer wall built, it's there to stay. They nest more and more walls until ...

How do I run rules on a x by 1 grid in lifeviewer?

Add ":Px,1" immediately after the rule name

Is there a shuttle (or other oscillator) that does the following?: The oscillator places an object that stabilizes within oscillator's period, which does not disrupt the oscillator's sequence. But, the object does not destroy, or get destroyed by, the oscillator in any of the next cycles. or Is ther...

The remaining ash fits in a 112 x 89 bounding box. It emits four herschels. And yet I have never seen of this reaction before. Is th...

Is a 10 x 10 solid square of cells glider constructible? And if not is there a Garden of Eden predecessor? What, garden of edens aren’t meant to have predecessors. A pattern with predecessors doesn’t mean it must have glider synthesis, although I believe a 10x10 is not hard. What I meant was a pred...

And how do you do huge text?

Herschel of Ostropol

As a block is one of the phases the pattern can be moved forward by one cell in any orthogonal direction. So this could theoretically be a tagalong, a conduit, or an oscillator. Well, I’ll have to say such a simple reaction is pretty much well known. I’m not really good at remembering CGOL patterns...
