Synthesising Oscillators

[iNoMed]

Moving away from period-3 oscillators for a moment, here's a final step for a small period-13 billiard table oscillator:

Code: Select all

x = 29, y = 28, rule = B3/S23
15bo$14bo$14b3o2$21bo$19b2o$20b2o3$4bo7b2o10bo$5b2o4bobo8b2o$4b2o6bo
10b2o3$14bo$13bobo$13bobo$14bo3$11b2o3b2o$b2o8bobobobo8b2o$obo5b2obobo
bobob2o5bobo$2bo5bobo2bobob2obo5bo$11b2obobo$12bobobo$11bo2b2o$11b2o!

Building the base still-life won't exactly be very easy though...

Edit: A tiny bit cheaper:

Code: Select all

x = 33, y = 33, rule = B3/S23
10bo$11bo$9b3o9$13b3o$3bobo9bo11bobo$4b2o8bo12b2o$4bo16bo6bo$20b2o$20b

If you're gonna do it, do it right:

Does anyone know how to make this transformation?

If so, we can reuse Kazyan's method from the star-based MW volcano synthesis.

It would need a version of the siamese-snake that isn't ripped from the overpriced MW volcano synth though to work

44 by kicking back the wasted glider from the first stage such that it is used in a later stage. (I've always wanted to do that in a synthesis!) ...

Nice! I've seen this trick used several times to create cleanup gliders, but I can't say that I've ever seen it used with gliders that were material parts of a synthesis.

[MathAndCode]

There are probably more opportunities like that one, and if Catagolue adds a feature to show which other objects a given object is used as an intermediate in synthesizing, finding those opportunities would be easier.

Please remember to give attribution for these — this step was jointly made by me, wwei, and BlinkerSpawn on Discord. BlinkerSpawn also gave this 10G synthesis for the base still life based on a predecessor I identified (making the oscillator 15G):

These are all on the "my discoveries" page (except the p128; I typically wait about a day before putting them on the page in case they get improved), skipping the ones with unwieldy sparkers and those that have already been synthesized. Do any of these look easily synthesizable? ...

The ones involving still-lifes/caterers/pentadecathlons/fumaroles/figure-8s surrounding traffic lights/honeyfarms/Pis should probably be fairly easy. Ones involving multiple exotic oscillators would probably be trickier.

This could usually be done much more cheaply via the 4-glider add-waffle component plus a component to add a tail to the waffle (probably 4-6 gliders).
