Synthesising Oscillators

[Ian07]

Offhand I don't see why the transformation in question would have given Catagolue any trouble --

Code: Select all

x = 48, y = 64, rule = B3/S23

$39b3ob2obo$39b2o4bo$44bo$45b3o$47bo!

It's because the spacing between parts of the same synthesis step is too large (i.e. the gap between the bottom T-nose and everything else is too large). If I remember correctly, the maximum radius is 21 - otherwise, Catagolue will treat it as a separate step. Unfortunately, there's not always a way to fix this on your own, and there are actually quite a few more instances of this throughout this synthesis:

If I remember correctly, the maximum radius is 21

I thought (perhaps naively) that is was just separating off columns or rows of at least 20, but a radius check would be hard to work around for this one.

One possible solution could be to turn it into a continuous synthesis using a script, but I'm afraid I don't know where such a script is. If it doesn't exist, it would be worth it to write one, not just for this synthesis, but for other syntheses where the objects are so far away that they're beyond Shinjuku's recognition as a single apgcode.

Edit: Found it:
https://github.com/dvgrn/b3s23life/blob/main/synthesis-tools/incremental-to-continuous-synthesis.py.
Disappointingly, it doesn't work for me because of an error at line 166:

Code: Select all

'zip' object is not subscriptable

Can anyone fix those errors to make it compatible with Python 3? (it looks like a compatibility issue, according to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27431390/typeerror-zip-object-is-not-subscriptable)

Sorry, that repository is still a mess -- have to finish converting everything to Python3 and make the old Python2 scripts unavailable. You're looking for the Python3 version.

It's still a very temperamental and finicky script, so make sure that each stage is exactly the same offset as the last, by running the incremental synthesis, copying it, and XOR-pasting it over its T=0 self... just to make sure everything matches exactly.

Note that several individual syntheses are merged into the third step, because I am afraid dividing it into more stages will make the intermediate constellations rejected by catagolue. With the number of constructions containing wide gaps growing steadily, I feel it necessary to request as follows:

Is there a script that
1) checks whether a glider synthesis is valid (infinitely rewind-able), and
2) predicts how the pattern (possibly dilute, with large spaces) will be interpreted and divided to multiple syntheses?

Is it possible to make the hypothetical script lifelib-independent?

#1 is very easy to do in a lifelib-independent way. For any sane glider count -- i.e., for anything that isn't a construction of something like a self-constructing spaceship -- a simple Golly script can handle recognizing all the gliders, moving them backwards by a LONG_ENOUGH distance, running LONG_ENOUGH*4 ticks, and checking that the result is the same as the original pattern -- pretty close to instantly.

#2 is much harder, involving some very careful reverse-engineering of the synthesis processing that Catagolue is currently doing. It's not clear that it's worth writing such a script, since the current synthesis processing is unnecessarily adding useless syntheses to the database, whenever an attempt is made to submit a synthesis with too much empty space in it.

It might be worth improving that processing code, and then writing a predictor showing how syntheses will be parsed ... and then, preferably, adding that predictor to Catagolue so that people can somehow preview the submissions they're trying to make.

I actually don't think it's very difficult to do this. Catagolue is open-source, so you can just extract code from Catagolue and modify it based on what you need. I hacked together this script a while ago, which contains a function that returns a true/false value based on whether the synthesis is valid:

...Is it possible to make the hypothetical script lifelib-independent?

#2 is much harder, involving some very careful reverse-engineering of the synthesis processing that Catagolue is currently doing. It's not clear that it's worth writing such a script...

I actually don't think it's very difficult to do this. Catagolue is open-source, so you can just extract code from Catagolue and modify it based on what you need...

It seems straightforward as long as you don't want a Golly script with no lifelib dependency. But that seems to be part of the original question.

I'm somewhat sympathetic to this idea of lifelib independence, since I've now several times used up all my spare time trying to get something Shinjuku-related to execute properly on my Windows box... with the somewhat depressing result that when my time is all used up, my best attempt still fails with mysterious errors.

Other people's mileage may vary (especially if they're running on Linux boxes, as any sensible person should be doing.) And I do know what I probably messed up on my Windows machine, and therefore what to try next -- just haven't had the time or energy to dive down that rabbit hole again.

As the issue of synthesis partition mentioned above still exists, I have to make the second step that messy.

Slightly different synth for 92P23, also 44G. Mine made the eaters cheaper but didn't have the constellation of beehives and blocks in as few.

Very nice! ... Waitaminute, the construction starts out building four beehive-plus-block constellations with five gliders each? There are lots of octo3g search results that will work to place a beehivenblock group, and at least one works for all four groups simultaneously, saving eight gliders -- 36G total now:

There are also ways to build the initial skewed honeyfarm in two pairs of two beehives, but I think that would be only a four-glider savings, since the four blocks (or something equivalent) seem to be needed because the pre-honeyfarms can't quite be built directly once the eaters are there, and the eaters can't be built later without using more gliders.

Activation step has some opportunity for improvement if the last traffic light can be inserted faster.

115p106 improved by 2 gliders to 58G with better cleanup in the final step.
