Modifying Eater Heads

Recently, I've been interested in modifying eater heads with gliders to something else, say, a boat. I also like changing them back. It's much easier to change them back than to get them in the first place. Things I need help with:

(head refers to eater head)

Head->Tub
Head->Beehive
Down Loaf->Head
Head->Up Barge
Head->Down Barge

and more.

Now that I'm moved and the DSL is working and the DNS changes have propagated, you should find what you want at:

http://pentadecathlon.com/constructions ... onent=hook

Go up one level for the full catalog:

http://pentadecathlon.com/constructions ... onents.php

It's a few years old, and someday I'll try to update it all, as I've probably got over a hundred more of these reactions to add. If you have problems, let me know as I could have broken something in the move...

OK, that is a MOUTHFUL! It's as if it I didn't have very many syntheses, and all of a sudden, I'm buried alive in them! Still helps though, but the links to the pattern files apparently do not work.

Curious. If you click on the image, your browser should download an RLE file.
For example, this page:

http://pentadecathlon.com/constructions ... nent&ID=21

should get you the RLE code used to generate the image:

Code: Select all

#C Component #21
#C Increase hook length by 1
#C 4 gliders
#C 6.1 to 7.1
x=9, y=17
7b2o$2obo2b2o$ob2o4bo4$3b2o$4b2o$3bo3b2o$6b2o$8bo4$5b3o$7bo$6bo!

2o$obobo$3b2o!
x=8, y=18, h=2, v=-2, color=(128,128,128)
3b3o$2b4o$3b2o$2b2o2bo$3bobo2$2bo$b4o$o2b3o$2o2b3o$ob3o$b3o2bo$b5o$4bo$4b

CB 4,4,4,4
GP F NE x=-7, y=17, len=11, color=(0,0,255)
GP F NE x=-5, y=25, len=11, color=(0,0,255)
GP F NW x=17, y=11, len=11, color=(0,0,255)
GP F NW x=17, y=19, len=11, color=(0,0,255)
There are three layers of RLE-- the initial configuration, the final configuration, and the "history" (cells active at some point). Then there's formatting info used to pad out the image and to draw the glider paths.

I just tried this and it works for me. The file is sent with a MIME type of text/rle, which can cause a properly configured browser to automatically launch your Life application and give it the file for display. That might be the problem. What broswer are you trying to use?

I use Firefox, but not sure which version.

EDIT: Looks like I found something not on the site!

Code: Select all

x = 19, y = 38, rule = B3/S23

The two components are closely related to each other.

Here are a few nice modification collisions. The tub-head => loaf-head conversion requires only one glider:

But how would you build the initial object?

First, ignore the 4 bit tail section. Tails are easy to tack on to any 2-bit flat end. What's happening is just converting an 11 bit object [11.28] into a Boat [5.1]. Which can be done with just one Glider:

Code: Select all

x=9, y=7

Turns out that that 11 bit object is pretty expensive to make:

Code: Select all

x=74, y=28

There's a couple of more ways to make it at http://pentadecathlon.com/objects/objec ... bjid=11.28.

The same reactiion can be moved up a notch (12 bit object) to make a barge instead of a boat:

Code: Select all

x = 10, y = 7, rule = B3/S23
