Nice -- another good use for simeks' same-lane 180-degree reflector.

This triggered a very old memory -- a three-digit post number memory -- because a ship is one of the possible targets for two gliders, to build an LWSS (or MWSS, if you delay the lower glider by one tick (on the right side of that old pre-syringe pre-Snark template pattern).

Nowadays we could just bounce two gliders into position with Snarks, and maybe a Bandersnatch or two -- should be a reasonably small piece of circuitry, because the ship creation doesn't have to be synchronized precisely with the gliders.

By the way, the same-lane reflector can also slightly speed up this H-to-LWSS, though it doesn't exactly solve the clearance problem.

I can't figure out how to extract a signal, but there's a variety of glider-activated factories that can come of variants on this:

Code: Select all

x = 27, y = 37, rule = B3/S23

This is one of few situations where the catalyst on the left cannot be replaced with a pair of fishhook eaters.

Kazyan did not manage to get a signal out, but it does not mean there is no factory from this:

the block has a 1 pixel that is both edgy and only on once the still life is in place, so that any asynchroneous interaction is predicable:

The only feature here is that if the marked block is missing, a glider is emitted instead, which could have marginal uses as that glider from an edge shooter.

Nice! The known beehive stopper is 25x16, so this new one at only 13x20 might come in quite handy for cases where circuitry doesn't have to be constructible -- e.g., a more compact HashLife-friendly metacell.

It's basically a derivative of the H-to-B on the right: just eat the pi instead of turning it into a B.
Edit: huh here the block switches places:

Here’s a much better stator for that catalyst:

No-clearance block factory whose block can be tested on two different lanes and is cool to watch
