A possible solution might be to use p24 glider guns to create the spark; I tried that but it didn't work. The spark can also be applied at period 12; maybe a sufficiently high-clearance p12 middleweight sparker would work, if any exist.

the "p24 lightweight sparker" comes close, but a toad is too close to one of the eater 1s

The killer toads still don't work; they're too close to the unix (and, in fact, to the engine itself). A period-4 or period-12 sparker might work in its place. (Replacing the figure 8 with the eater and clock reduces the bounding box.)

It might be possible to reduce it a bit further, but I'm not going to try.

A p16 filter can be added without increasing the bounding box, giving a p48 gun:

Well that certainly beats the p24/p48 lwss gun (with gliders) that I constructed last year and posted on my thread.

Several different still lives can work with the catalysis reaction in Carson Cheng's p24 gun:

Code: Select all

If a sufficiently thin catalyst can be found, it could reduce gun_24, as was stated earlier.

EDIT: Further reduction of gun_72, to 870 cells:

Code: Select all

x = 29, y = 30, rule = B3/S23

EDIT2: I'm dumb. A reduction to 777 cells was already posted.
It's OK to abbreviate my username to "P1GG," but never, never, call me "pig."

Code: Select all

x = 36, y = 9, rule = B3/S23

The only way to "eat" the output was to "shoot" it;

so I suppose what I really have is an oscillator here...

The only way to "eat" the output was to "shoot" it;

so I suppose what I really have is an oscillator here...

You can actually use two welded-together eaters:

Has anyone sorted out all of the H-to-Gs that work at period 61? I just had a quick look at the current true p61 gun, wondering whether the new bi-block shifter might happen to connect a shorter loop in the northwest.

So far I'm not seeing any lucky connections. The original gun is shown on the left for comparison:

I'm not good at oscilators and guns in CGol, and can't find a solution. i found a p180 gun partial. Only blinker missed.

Pi + blinker collision = two gliders, and blinkery survives, but pulled orthogonal a little. Mayby useful for guns with pi factories.

I found a true p14 gun partial, that might be easier than the other one above. (also similar to the one above) (p7 or p14 needed)

Code: Select all

x = 80, y = 21, rule = LifeHistory
