B3/S23-q

[confocaloid]

A weird cross between a pre-pulsar and a Schick engine, most likely found by FWKnightship in B3/S23-q:

Code: Select all

x = 9, y = 15, rule = B3/S23-q

EDIT 6: A problem I ran into is that the 180-degree reflected glider unfortunately collides with the incoming glider from the next reaction. While this does leave no visible residue, it does limit the effectiveness of the fuse.

[...] Clean glider-producing oblique fuse achieved!

Code: Select all

x = 491, y = 388, rule = B3/S23-q

Now how to tease some more gliders out of this...could really use an over-unity. [...]

I'm not sure whether this approach will lead to an overunity reaction. It looks like the cost of building the seed will exceed the number of emitted gliders.

One way to engineer an overunity would be to construct some glider rake (by colliding finitely many gliders), then let the rake emit as many gliders as desired, and then delete the rake. That could lead to a bootstrapping gun. There may be a reasonably "cheap" rake that moves orthogonally at c/5, based on the p30 spaceship.

There may be a reasonably "cheap" rake that moves orthogonally at c/5, based on the p30 spaceship.

the reactions I have would probably work best with a diagonal puffer instead of an orthogonal one, since the oblique reaction can then be chained into a diagonal. Additionally, the blinker turner leaves a block, so the best I think could be hoped for would be a block puffer based on the perfect blinker puffer

I'm not sure whether this approach will lead to an overunity reaction. It looks like the cost of building the seed will exceed the number of emitted gliders.

I am not saying this approach will lead to an over-unity. What I am saying is that an over-unity would be useful in potential construction of the fuse, though it probably isn't terribly feasible.

A p4 orthogonal c/4 spaceship (78P4H1V0), found with qfind v2.4b:

Neither of four phases queries the S3q condition (therefore it doesn't matter whether the rules prescribe death or survival in this case).
In other words, neither of four phases of the spaceship contains any of the following 3-by-3 configurations:

Code: Select all

o o -   - o o   - - o   o - -   o - -   - - o   - - o   o - -
- o -   - o -   - o -   - o -   o o -   o o -   - o o   - o o
- - o   o - -   o o -   - o o   - - o   o - -   o - -   - - o

o alive cell
- dead cell

The four standard spaceships also have this property.
Are there any spaceships with the same property and with period other than 4?
