9 cell p-5 (possibly a higher period rule can be crafted around the same configuration) I'm trying to fill out the remaining gaps with my rulemaker

The gun is a true gun as opposed to pseudo gun, which has a period that is a multiple of the period of the output spaceship stream, like this one. However, this gun does not have a population of one as a dot is just a predecessor of the 5 cell p13 gun. Oh yes, that's true. Playing around a bit more...

welcome! here is a p10 gun for you x = 1, y = 1, rule = B1e4acew5ek/S01e2ik3iy4act5a6c o! Wow, great example! Let's see how far can we get! :D I don't know if this can be considered a "true" glider gun, because it seems kind of "dirty". The very first glider it emits does not exactly look like the ...

New highest-period 1-cell gun, p8:

Code: Select all

x = 1, y = 1, rule = B1e3e4aew5k8/S01e2n3iy4at5a6c
o!

I found an even larger period single cell gun than the one quoted above (p9):

No, the smallest known spaceship gun in terms of population has only 1 cell Woah, thanks for the heads up! The one I can find via google is a 4 cell gun in Sayab rule, but it was from a 2017 paper. EDIT: So as I understand, the challenge here now is to find a highest period 1 pixel gun, right? :D E...

Hello, this is my first post here, so altrough I read trough the guildelines and a few other posts, please be kind and point me in the right direction if I ask a silly question. I'm interested in generative art, and more generally in the field of fractals since my late childhood, but only recently I...
