Oh wait, we are still rivals. I will also do a c/3 spaceship gun, other than dart, but this time the credits will be mine. And moreover, if it is to be a dart, my gun will be smaller and run at lower period! Unfortunately that means p30 with Gosper glider guns, but will hold a record!

When we get famous and scoreboards show 'Rehermann vs. Simkin' I will never admit it, but ONLY now I used your gun to make a p360 oscillator:

What is intrigating about it is it does mere nothing, which might be a general disappointment in the vision of a important secret project member.

The greyship hits each layer and is progressively more perturbed, until it is completely decomposed into still lives. The agar trailing behind the greyship begins to consume itself.

dvgrn wrote: The switch that turns on the extra A...F printer characters hasn't gotten much independent review, though. The only documentation for the hexadecimal option is some text in the pattern itself, a little left of center. Looking at it again, it's a very small patch compared to the full pattern, so maybe it has been too hard for anyone to find.

Kazyan wrote:Hmm. It's a longshot, but I wonder if--via circulating G2/G5/G6/etc pairs instead of just gliders, or periodic circuitry, or some other farfetched way of aggressively cutting down the repeat time of a circuit--only a single copy of Tile A would suffice on each end. If it could emit gliders quickly enough, it could perform 0hd recipes without a partner.

The working of the 0hd trick relies on Tile A happening to terminate with an edge-shooter that can insert a glider very very close behind another glider on the same lane. When the lead glider in a 0hd pair hits something, another glider has to be there almost immediately to modify the reaction. Check out the first glider pairs in Paul Chapman's 0hd universal set...
{blah, blah, blah...}
Anyway, a single-emitter design would probably have to have a repeat time below 20 ticks, before that idea would really work -- certainly below 43, since even a honeyfarm explosion will settle in that amount of time. If you can't hit the lead glider's explosion while it's active, the search space basically shrinks down to nothing.

Haha, that's so hilariously true. This might actually be my favourite remark ever made on these forums.
