Gluons (more elegant variety of Gluonic)

After experimenting with various multistate cyclical rules (see my
post about the rule I call Gluonic), I started to think that one rule of the Gluonic, according to which a cell of a certain color is born, when surrounded by one cell of the previous color in the cycle and two cells of the next color, is somewhat convoluted and pretty much redundant. So I started building a new repository of the more simple rule called Gluons. The reason behind both names is because unlike Seeds' photons, basically the same ships in my rule have 3 different color phases.
The rules are straightforward:
1. A cell is born only if surrounded by 2 cells of the same color. The newborn cell takes the next color in the cycle (i.e. two red cells give birth to a green cell, green to blue, blue to red).
2. A cell survives, if it stands alone, surrounded by 2 cell of 2 different colors or by 3 cells of any color.
Importantly, unlike Gluonic (it does has guns, but I was unable to build one with the period less than 17), Gluons has P6, P8, P16 and possible other guns. It seems also suitable for signal circuitry. I've built a binary counter that allows to multiply gun periods to any power of 2.
Here is my little repository for this rule:
https://github.com/yoelmatveyev/Firewor ... rns/Gluons
Here is the binary counter:
Code: Select all
x = 178, y = 51, rule = Gluons
10$13.B$31.A11.A11.A11.A11.A11.A11.A11.A11.A11.A$9.C21.BC10.BC10.BC

BA$12.A2.A7$12.A2.A!
Gluonic is also worth exploring, but this more simple rule has pretty much the same stuff and possibly more.

Since the loop's period can be extended by any multiple of 12, it is possible to reach a multiple of any natural number and construct a corresponding gun. This reflector only works for periods >=17 though.

A modification of this rule, which I call Gluons34 (
T2b-0a011a3n34a in my notation) augments Gluons with a reaction that turns a block into a semi-natural p7 gun by adding
34a, meaning that a cell survives, if surrounded by 3 cells of one color and 4 cells of the next color (3 red + 4 green, 3 green + 4 blue, or 3 blue + 4 red). Almost all Gluons patterns work in this rule, accept one of Layz Boi's p8 oscillators (the second one still works).
Code: Select all
x = 13, y = 11, rule = Gluons34
3$5.2A$5.2A!
When the natural eaters (dots) are removed, this p7 oscillator becomes a gun:
Code: Select all
x = 22, y = 20, rule = Gluons34
