Agree, more apgsearching (across all 16 symmetries) could yield an unexpected sparky oscillator that would lead to a gun. "Hacked gencols" would be another possibility if it exists (does it?) I used modified gencols to find a p98 glider reflector in B357/S238 ; the p98 oscillators there are not very...

Here is the 15c/56 fuse in a "moving frame of reference" . The cells are enlarged by a factor of 4, and the grid moves diagonally to the northwest so that the forward glider stays at the same place between kickbacks. After 56 ticks, the forward glider is moved forward by one "enlarged cell". #C This...

Blockic snake Blocken snake

I think most non-redirect pages with '^' in the title are moved now: Special:Log/move

Constructablility is vague, so how am I supposed to know which context? Anyway, as I said, constructablility is not integral to blockicness. Constructibility is directly relevant to Blockicness, though -- Blockic constellations appear in contexts where constructibility matters. The advantage of res...

Do you understand the difference between slow salvo construction and an arbitrary glider synthesis?

Anyways, you only need 2 gliders for a bi-block - same as a block.
