My discoveries and things list.

Post by HerscheltheHerschel » September 5th, 2023, 5:16 am

I like creating and discovering patterns and/or reaction, but I don't wanna spam this entire forum.
So I will put my discoveries (and also engineered things) here.

Yep, the pi-heptomino (great-grandparent of the house) is an almost-spaceship. It moves at 9c/30 but the junk it leaves behind moves faster, and catches up to it. There are several known ways to delete/hassle the junk so it doesn't catch up with the replicated pi and kill it. The simplest is the 3c/10 pi wave.

@ HerscheltheHerschel :

Greetings !

And Welcome to our Community !

Someone who specializes in the Herschel

( which I call "That Accursed J" )

is bound to come in handy around here -

I see you already have quite a bit

of collaboration going on !

Perhaps I could plead for HELP

with my pet project,

The King Bee

As a side note, we deliberately try to keep the Forums less active than they might otherwise be

because it takes time for the entire Community to get caught up with all the great new ideas ! ! !

( I think maybe the Discord is a more active channel, and also more social. )

I am not anti-social.

I am just non-social.

Appreciate your Understanding...

Cheers !
