A bit of stuff was already technically explored with
Neutronium by Extrementhusiast, who made an extended life rule with
Neutronium (however, it didn't occur naturally and wasn't given such a cool name. Check
http://code.google.com/p/ruletablerepos ... i/TheRules)
The table was
Code: Select all
@RULE extendedlife
@TABLE
n_states:7
neighborhood:Moore
symmetries:permute
# General Behavior:
#
# 0 is empty
# 1 is on
# 2 is birthforcer
# 3 is deathforcer
# 4 is birthforcer + deathforcer
# 5 is blocker
# 6 is reactor
#
# Specific Behavior
# 0 changes to 1 when (state1 neighbors + state6 neighbors) == 3
# 0 changes to 1 when (state2 neighbors + state4 neighbors) >= 1
# otherwise 0 stays 0
#
# 1 changes to 0 when (state1 neighbors + state6 neighbors) != 2, 3
# 1 changes to 0 when (state3 neighbors + state4 neighbors) >= 1
# otherwise 1 stays 1
#
# 2 always stays 2
#
# 3 always stays 3
#
# 4 always stays 4
#
# 5 always stays 5
#
# 6 always stays 6

A new eater given there was
Code: Select all
x = 66, y = 8, rule = extendedlife
56.A$54.A.A$55.2A$2.2A15.A$A4.A11.A3.A12.A2.A$6.A15.A15.A22.2A.F$A5.A
10.A4.A11.A3.A21.A2.2FE$.6A11.5A12.4A22.2A.F!
So, I made a stable form with
Neutronium:
Code: Select all
x = 52, y = 8, rule = Neutronium
39.A$37.A.A$38.2A$2.A$A3.A12.A2.A$5.A15.A22.2A.B.2B$A4.A11.A3.A21.A2.
2B.B.B$.5A12.4A22.2A.B.2B!
Last to note, the HWSS is now unstable because a cell of
Neutronium is created.
I wonder if there are any
Neutronium guns, like
Code: Select all
x = 3, y = 3, rule = extendedlife
B.B2$B.B!
from extendedlife.
---
P.S. stabilized the eater in a smaller form, at least for SSes:
Code: Select all
x = 24, y = 5, rule = Neutronium
A2.A19.B$4.A13.2A.B$A3.A12.A2.3B$.4A13.2A.B$23.B!
