Here's another one that grows, but along the edge... it soon makes another one of those very annoying things you can't get rid of, but this one actually forms naturally and debris doesn't stop it either....

oh, I think we have different opinions, I personally like chaos coming to a stop and a lot more 'study-able' and analyse-able' being created, that's probably why I like 35678/24/5, but I guess both could be studied and related to each other anyway, so yeah...

Oh, and yes, I have come across those 2 block walls before, and they haven't joined up in my case either, but I think its to do with the design of the 2 leads on both sides. But once they are in place, there indestructible and can get quite annoying, also, there's this really annoying thing that I c...

It teleports this to the other side of the box like a cross-surface The thing it fires out of the teleportation reflects, eventually, you get 2 of those travelling with exact rotational symmetry.

Well, there are already corderships and geminoids

yeah, well, I meant one that only moves in a straight line, and you get what I mean.....

Alright, the name for this rule is temporarily 'glide life', if you have any suggestions, please tell me and I will consider them. Thanks!

EDIT: By the way, why is the head of the fuse p12, while the finished product is p24? [/code] it they don't really have much to do with each other, but the finished product is usually a multiple of the fuse, except in extremely rare cases. Usually when this happens, it is because the result of the ...

I'm surprised nobody's found a spaceship by putting something behind the tub yet, but I think it's possible

This rule is interesting especially because of its ALMOST exploding tubs, and whenever a pattern is about to die out, a tub usually appears and explodes outwards until its debris destroys it, for example, this 8 cell pattern lasts for 8400+ gens. x = 9, y = 3, rule = 238/346/3 .A5.A$A.A3.A.A$.A5.A! ...
