The front part ended up being more difficult than I anticipated. I eventually worked it out after trying HWSSs at the front instead of LWSSs, which results in a nice symmetry with the back corners of the greyship.
I wonder how feasible converting the HWSSes at the front to LWSSes after the spaceship has been activated would be. A HWSS can be converted to a MWSS with a douplet spark at the front, but unfortunately, this method does not work for converting a MWSS to a LWSS.
I am tentatively considering myself back.

How about these converters?

No, the XWSS needs to be modified at the front, like the following.

A HWSS can be converted to a MWSS with a douplet spark at the front, but unfortunately, this method does not work for converting a MWSS to a LWSS.
However, it does work for converting the MWSS-like greyship front end to the LWSS-like front end.

Code: Select all

x = 41, y = 31, rule = B3/S23

Thank you for pointing that out; I had missed that.
I have submitted conversions for making the MWSS and LWSS versions to Catagolue. The obvious next step is a mixed HWSS-LWSS version. Does anyone have any leads on that?

Here are two unorthodox paceships, one greyship and one wickstretcher/eater combination. They seem like they would be fairly easy to synthesize, as they both use extensible parts, which means it just the repetition of one construction

"Fairly easy" is only true if it's possible to re-use an extensible recipe, fast enough that the whole thing doesn't collapse before you finish building it.

It's possible that this may turn out to be true for one of these spaceships, but it sure doesn't look likely! Just the top half of the front of the top spaceship is about as difficult a problem as anyone has ever been able to find a recipe for, and that's without synchronizing two half-recipes (which means you have fewer incoming signal directions to work with).

Then building the "tail" is even more difficult, because it collapses so quickly if it isn't supported from the front. The two halves of the front work just fine as a spaceship without the tail, but it's extra extra hard to add the tail on after the front is already flying, because the whole thing travels at c/2. The only way to catch up with a receding c/2 structure is to build lightspeed wavefronts to chase it; if you fire gliders or even *WSSes as part of a recipe, they'll never catch up. But lightspeed wavefronts are, to put it mildly, a very blunt instrument to try to use for complex constructions like this.

The lower spaceship looks maybe a few billion times more difficult than the upper one, but I'm not an expert on this stuff -- maybe there's some stable configuration that can be magically collapsed to form one or the other of these objects.

While i definetly agree the bottom one is going to be much harder to synthesize, The top one has a few "properties" that may make it easier than expected.

1: the fuse at the end burns cleanly, which makes it less necessary to construct all at once.
2: the front part is stable on it's own, even if the fuse burns up.
3: the backend also doesn't create debris, it just sparks away

Heh, well, I don't want to dash all of your hope, because of course there is a little bit of hope for a solution. But I did address most of those points in my previous message.

If you try to come up with a specific plan for how to construct that top spaceship incrementally, you run into the rather difficult problem that you can't build the trailing wick fast enough. It doesn't burn catastrophically, but it does burn at 4c/5, so the potential construction site moves considerably faster than it is possible to catch up to it with colliding gliders or even *WSSes.

Long story short, an "all at once" solution involving the sudden collapse of an extensible constellation might be a more realistic option. Waving hands vaguely and hoping that it will somehow be solvable seems to work, but only until you try to put together an actual synthesis.

The NE is unnecessarily seed-like, but stealing from the Speed Demonoid seed was the first thing I was able to get to work. It might be able to be replaced with the 3G glider+block synthesis (the one that can be seen in the SW) if the SE section section is modified to be less obtrusive.

I can try to help with that. What OS, what version of Golly, and what version of Python are you running? Put answers in this Bugs & Errors thread so we don't clutter up Small Spaceship Syntheses.

Very nice! Completed synthesis in 58 gliders, based on the xs18 from 12, and a trick I developed a while back for adding nearby tubs in constructing troublesome quasi-still-lifes:

Great, that means we have syntheses for all of the 6 smallest c/4 diagonal spaceships!:

Anyway, I was able to reduce the cost down to 48 gliders after I found a method of making the spark in the SE which fit with the 3G synthesis of the glider+block:

Unfortunately, the base constellation looks quite challenging to synthesise. In particular, the upper part contains some troublesome motifs which I don't think there is much prior art for because they only turn up in still-lifes with high bit counts.

Edit: Some progress:

Re: Small Spaceship Syntheses

Post by muzik » February 8th, 2022, 9:27 am

Is there anywhere I can find a list of syntheses for three-standard-spaceship flotillae, including the overweight kind? Mark's site (https://conwaylife.com/ref/mniemiec/flotilla.htm) states that all of the three-spaceship flotillae with no overweight spaceships as well as a considerable portion of those with overweight spaceships can be synthesized, but Catagolue only has a small portion of these, and is missing a huge fraction of them, such as the following two LWSS-on-7WSS-on-LWSS configurations:

Code: Select all

x = 47, y = 9, rule = B3/S23

All of the 3-ship flotillae of the standard ships can be synthesized by decomposing them into the two associated 2-ship flotillae, and either starting with the left+middle ships and adding the right ship using the "add from the right side" synthesis recipe, or starting with the right+middle ships, and adding the left ship using the "add from the left side" recipe. All of the 2-ship flotillae include recipes for 1) cheapest cost in gliders, 2) add from the right, and 3) add from the left (although often 2 or 3 of these are the same). Unfortunately, there are several hundred combinations of these, and I didn't feel that it would be productive to manually instantiate all of them.

I worked out many of the smaller 3-ship OWSS syntheses back in the 1990s. Since the left and right sides are usually independent of each other, it was easier to just templates for each possible escort arrangement on both the left and right sides, combined with the associated engine synthesis. Most of the syntheses can be created by just cutting and pasting two halves together, although some of them involve some adjustments, because some escort arrangements impact creation of the rear of the engine; also most of the arrangements require additional setup steps to place one or two seed still-lifes, which makes blind copy+pasting difficult.

With how the rest of my site is set up (with full finished syntheses provided), I would have had to instantiate all possible escort combinations, which would have been quite a lot of work; there are 232 of them with just 7WSS escorted by LWSS, MWSS, HWSS, and or Coe ship alone!

Using the standard escorts, all 7WSS, all 8WSS, and most 9WSS have known syntheses. About 1/3 of the 10WSS, 3/4 of 11WSS, 3/4 of 12WSS, all 13WSS, and the one 14WSS.

There are thre basic engine mechanisms that are used in most of these. The first is a variant of the 2-gliders-into-boat MWSS synthesis. The second involves a 3-glider spark into a long ship, that turns it into a double-headed spaceship, which grows in both directions until 2 gliders snip the tail off at the desired length. The third creates arbitrarily long OWSS by creating a series of block-on-table as the spine, which is then released at the same time the head is created from above (I'm not sure who first found this method; I just saw it used in several syntheses on catagolue, and extrapolated it to several other sizes that weren't synthesized).

Of the two examples you listed, one has what I call LWSS escort #3 on both sides, while the other has #2 on one side, and #3 on the other side. The boat method can add #2 on either side, and #3 on the right, but not on the left, so LWSS3 on 7WSS on LWSS3 must be done using the more expensive long ship method, while LWSS2 on 7WSS on LWSS3 can be done using the boat method:

Is there a synthesis for the new spaceship that is 35P12H6V0-with-pufferfish-companion? Can it be extended?

Seems like it should be fairly straightforward to build some length of that spaceship, in either chirality:

The tricky part will be to come up with a method that works for any length down to the minimum length.

While we're at it, might any recently invented synthesis techniques allow for any synthesis down to a minimum-length pufferfish spaceship?

Frustratingly, this method allows construction of all 35P12H6V0-with-pufferfish-tagalong ships except the minimal-length one:

It's possible that there's a better 2-glider cleanup which could further contract the pufferfish.
