Script challenges

Post by Hdjensofjfnen » October 10th, 2019, 8:29 pm

A thread where you can challenge the processing power of your computer to synthesize constellations. Someone begins by posting a constellation that they know an n-glider recipe for, and having others figure out what the recipe is.

To start, you are looking for a five-glider synthesis (or fewer!) of the following:

Code: Select all

x = 4, y = 12, rule = B3/S23
2b2o$2b2o4$2bo$bobo$2bo3$2o$2o!

Code: Select all

x = 5, y = 9, rule = B3-jqr/S01c2-in3
3bo$4bo$o2bo$2o2$2o$o2bo$4bo$3bo!

Code: Select all

x = 7, y = 5, rule = B3/S2-i3-y4i
4b3o$6bo$o3b3o$2o$bo!

I’m not using a computer right now, so I’ll be waiting. Unless I can already post a puzzle, but there already is one, so I don’t think so.
