Unfortunately, I couldn't get it to work with Speed Tunnel, since one of the gliders emitted hits the beehive push catalyst. ...
How about adding a Fx77 like this?

Here's a 31x40 QBless p30 gun via R pentomino hassler, using the trusty periodic R-to-G conversion of RF29P:

I was thinking, why not make a true p14 glider gun from two copies of the p14 hassler found by mvr?

Code: Select all

x = 32, y = 8, rule = B3/S23

Unfortunately, I didn't find any useful reaction apart from a pi factory by applying a domino spark

Code: Select all

I used the following gencols inputs in Command Prompt:

Second one searched spaceship-emitting reactions over the course of a few days. None of the results work, but a TL + spark → LWSS reaction was noted (which is actually known). Last two commands found combinations that give a p2 object/constellation, of which four results have appropriate clearance for the traffic light reaction.
The next day, in an attempt to repeat the procedure with other orientations, I had

Code: Select all

D:\gencols-pt-002> gencols.exe -rule B3/S23 -pat left.life up.life -nph 45 -tc 2 46 -gen 46 -nosynch -del1 -del2 -filt s | makematrix.exe -space 64 > guns.txt
which unexpectedly yields a single result of the HWSS gun.
Limitation
I know that Ivan Fomichev posted an improved version on his github, but my gencols is Paul Tooke's version compiled some time before due to its isotropic non-totalistic compatibility. No combination of both is apparently available, nor is there an active maintainer taking over the gencols code.
The -nph input parameter is for phase differences between pattern 2 and pattern 1. For periodic patterns it can be simply set as period, but here one of patterns is the list of interactions between two p45 pi-heptomino hasslers, which is not periodic. -nph should be set a bit higher like 60, but then the search may consume a large amount of memory.
...
Using a hammer reaction, a p45 gliderless MWSS gun can be made. No 2- or 3-engine p45 gliderless MWSS gun has been discovered, unfortunately.
No experiment between two p45 and a pentadecathlon has been done.

Where do you see 42 cells? The minimum population seems to be 44, not 42.

"420" is the number of cells in a 20x21 bounding box, and bounding box is the metric by which we measure record-breaking glider guns. This one has now been reduced to 400 cells, 20x20 (second to last entry).

Why are glider guns in B3/S23 ranked with bounding box?
I have discovered SKOP for 115, 188, 492 and gun_ and guntrue_ for 200, 226, 339, 752, 1944, 6624.
