Excellent discovery! My ikpx2 search finally (after 3 months running on 16 threads or so) found a completion, which means that we have an extensible knightship with a powerful spark at the front:

Do you plan to continue the search?

Does that count as a new Knightwave then?

Sure -- a ridiculously complex knightwave compared to the other one, but I guess it's still a knightwave.

It can be thought of as traveling obliquely at (2,1)c/6, orthogonally at 44c/357, diagonally at 88c/807, or lots of other weird oblique velocities.

Wow!
That means we have two elementary knightships now, and one extensible one. Great job calcyman!
