By carefully choosing a corner bun edge-shooter and applying it to known long^n snake syntheses, I am able to reduce xs15_69eg8oz321 , xs16_255m853zw32 and xs18_255m853zca1 ... and ... xs18_255m853zw346 synthesis. Replacing the bun with a century seems much harder to do in 3G, though. I generalized...

Is it possible to have phpBB supports for formatting LaTex? It would be nice to be able to write formulae and build tables in the posts.

Well done, but you forget my modification of the script that allows for seed saving and result classifying :( Sorry, I had just been looking at the ships to add and not really paying attention to too much else. I'll look it over and probably add it next update. Okay. Feel free to alert me if anythi...

components_v4.rle has a three-glider collision that works. Nice! that slipped my mind when looking for a completion. This leads to a bunch of constellation components. I am confident that we could contrive a convertion of the constellations by connecting components to complex strict still lives :) ...

Update is up on Github. Pulls from everything posted here, a few of my own local runs, and everything prior.

On a different topic, an older post used the term "fast component". I accidentally found a big (16 cells) still life-ish pattern from 3G collision: x = 12, y = 12, rule = B3/S23 9bo$10b2o$9b2o$2bo$obo$b2o4$7b3o$9bo$8bo! [[ ZOOM 16 STOP 27 ]] This leads to 8G fast component (add 20-cell length-3 indu...

From my perspective, a superconductor operating at room temperature and ambient pressure is as "too good to be true" as a natural elementary c/61 spaceship in Conway's Life.

A revolution in computer designing stimulated by superconductors would surely enhance soup-searching speed, though.

You missed that the bridge snake and bridge carrier slow components can be used as fast add siamsese snake and add siamese carrier components. And you missed that the slow components are slightly less expensive than before — if clearance permits, the bridge carrier costs 4G and the bridge snake cos...

To me it has been always interesting that a house-tie-boat induction coil can be made in only 3 gliders, even since my early days of practising synthesis . Inspired by soups, the key active region may be perturbed with one or two gliders to give a ship, fishhook or aircraft carrier for the tie. x =...

Good news: my post count of Other Cellular Automata (570) has just overtaken that of Sandbox (569)*, and my post count in Thread for basic questions (96) has just surpassed that in Random posts (95)**. *Before this post of course **The old thread has been locked since 2021 I keep trying to improve q...

This is my first post here. Thank you very much (to the moderators) for allowing me to join. My question: Is there a rule (can be outer-totalistic, isotropic, or LtL (Larger-than-Life)) that you have encountered with as many 4-cell stable objects (still-lifes or oscillators) as possible? Let's star...

For a variation of taste, let's look at synthesis components making small oscillators. We are familiar with the 3-glider century converting ship to quadpole reaction, but then allowing some more gliders gives an extra tie boat (totaling 6 gliders) or ship (totaling 7 gliders), shown below transformi...

A two-glider octomino has 41 matches in the 12x12-1G-octohash database, its child and grandchild having 125 and 148 respectively. The count of results keeps increasing, as expected when evolving the input pattern further, and for the 28-tick descendant it reaches 281. However, from generation 145 on...

No one pays attention to the p8 glider shifter above? --- This soup produces an all-natural 1-glider seed for a cis-mold [on/and] dock ( xp4_3lk453z34ats ): x = 16, y = 16, rule = B3/S23 b8obobo2bo$5o2b3o2b3o$o2b2o2b3ob4o$b4obobob4obo$b3ob4o3b3o$3o6bo4bo$2b ob5ob3ob2o$2b2obob3ob4o$2ob3obobob5o$o2b7o...

Two questions related to these dependent devices: 1) Is there a dependent xWSS-to-G (or better, xWSS-to-xWSS with or without hammer ) converter? 2) Can the spark from a glider Heisenburp below be perturbed to make dependent oscillators? #C Note the honey-farm-eliminating glider Heisenburp! x = 138, ...

One week later and still nobody responding to the challenge... Unlike the component above that creates tie block on table via direct addition, the following creates one by partial degradation: a 2-stage 5-glider synthesis component converting table on table to xs17_03jgf9z6221 (tie fishhook head) ba...

By-stander's view: When mentioning "signal" or "information", there are two concepts that may be involved: 1)microscopic ON/OFF state of one cell, or 2)mesoscopic presence/absence of an object. (Mesoscopic, not macroscopic, which is reserved for larger constructions. As I have stated in Tutorials/Ge...
