An actual bug in gfind?

Post by wwei47 » July 20th, 2024, 9:56 am

Look at the final rows of output before a spaceship is found.

Code: Select all

$ ./gfind.exe B36/S12/o5/n1/l125/q27

o!

Search complete.
The spaceship itself is an actual spaceship though:

Code: Select all

x = 12, y = 41, rule = B36/S12

2b2o6bo$2bo$2bo3bo$3bo3bo2$b3o3b3o$2obo3bob2o$o9bo$2b3ob3o$2bo5b
o!
If anyone cares, I've started work on another (34,7)c/156 spaceship using the same reaction.
