This is a great question!

EDIT: How about this?

Code: Select all

x = 2, y = 3, rule = B2ce3aekqy4-acjt5-nqry6-e7e8/S012aei3-akny4cejkrwy5ekqy6ikn7c8

Yeah, something like that but maybe with a slightly larger separation.

Yeah, that. I suggest calling these SMOTs. (Spaceships Made of Themselves)

Or, depending on how you classify it, a very strange failedrep.

Here's another attempt, in this one the ships can actually arrive in their correct position from infinity.

Code: Select all

x = 4, y = 23, rule = B2cei3aejy4ijk5cijnq6ci7/S12an3i4iknyz5cj6a

Impressive! How did you find that and what do you recommend I do to find one?

Can anyone find a SMOI that travels obliquely or diagonally?

Also cross posting this from the SSSSS thread because it's an absolutely insane SMOI (Spaceship Made of Itself, see proof below).

Reasons why it's insane:
-It's p8912
-It's a SMOI
-It uses 6 copies of itself at one point
-It makes p158 osc and then destroys it

It travels backwards at c/44 diagonal. The rule also has a 5c/34d.

A rather borderline case, where the spaceships collide 2 generations after the spark disappears:

Code: Select all

x = 6, y = 6, rule = B2in3-cn4cqrwyz5cqry6ci7c8/S2ace3-cqr4-aktz5ar6ai7
3b3o$4bo2$o$2o$o!
It travels at 3c/669d.

EDIT: Why did this get overlooked?

Code: Select all

x = 3, y = 9, rule = B2ce3y4ez/S12ae3aiq4ejt5ar6n7e
2bo$obo6$obo$2bo!
EDIT2: There's even a SMOSMOS, c/151d:

Code: Select all

x = 14, y = 14, rule = B2cek3q4ey5a6k7c/S12ae3a4acnqtz5aeqy6cei7e8
6bo5bo2$5b2o5b2o3$2bo$obo6$obo$2bo!
EDIT3: The above rule also has an OMOSMOS, which is period 162:

Code: Select all

x = 17, y = 9, rule = B2cek3q4ey5a6k7c/S12ae3a4acnqtz5aeqy6cei7e8

Arguably the first knightship SMOI ever found, by Saka in November 2017:

Cross-posting my 2c/318d:

Code: Select all

x = 7, y = 7, rule = B2kn3-nq6i/S23-aeny4iknqtz
obo$3o3$5b2o$5bo$5b2o!
Adding S6ae makes it a rake:

Code: Select all

x = 7, y = 7, rule = B2kn3-nq6i/S23-aeny4iknqtz6ae
obo$3o3$5b2o$5bo$5b2o!
While adding S5n6ac gives another rake:

Code: Select all

x = 7, y = 7, rule = B2kn3-nq6i/S23-aeny4iknqtz5n6ac
obo$3o3$5b2o$5bo$5b2o!
Yet another rake:

Code: Select all

x = 7, y = 7, rule = B2kn3-nq6i/S23-aeny4iknqtz5in6-ik
obo$3o3$5b2o$5bo$5b2o!
Compare with this:

I'm not even quite sure how to describe the behaviour of the ship. It's kind of like a failed replicator. It's essentially a forward c/2 ship puffer, but because the engine is also c/2 it interferes with itself - and it does so in a quite complicated way which ultimately results in all the puffer output being cleaned up.
This is great. Here's a RMOS for it:

Code: Select all

x = 23, y = 23, rule = B3-cnqy4ej6c7c/S2-i3-aky4-ajkqw5cj6aci7c8
20b3o$20b3o$21bo18$2o$3o$2o!
Note that it's a rake made of spaceships in one phase, and then in a later phase it's also made of a different kind of spaceship.
EDIT: In the second rule above there's a reflectorless rotating gun:

Code: Select all

x = 137, y = 114, rule = B2kn3-nq6i/S23-aeny4iknqtz6ae

I'm running two searches simultaneously.
This 2c/2100d works by shooting three 4c/76o and colliding them:

Code: Select all

x = 6, y = 14, rule = B2i3-ek4-aitwz5k6n8/S23-a4ity5e6n
3b3o10$b2o$ob2o$o2bo$3bo!
This 7²c/7³d shoots three pairs of c/2 but two just get too close:

Code: Select all

x = 5, y = 5, rule = B2kn3-n4cet5jr6e/S2-c3-aekn4einq5cnr6-kn

Is there a SMOSMOSMOS?

IIRC, we came close but no one actually managed to find/create one (on this forum)


@GUYTU6J: Both those SMoSs are fascinating. Good luck with the searches.
