b34in/s235kn has some pretty interesting behaviours, just by scribbling in Golly.

Hi and welcome to the forums! By the way, these things should go into the Sandbox, that is, everything that is unrelated to general cellular automata, but that you still want to talk about. That is where the Sandbox comes in. Anyway, I thought of investigating the rule, but the rule is quite explosive. Even this small pattern explodes, and there isn't much to gain from it apart from ordinary life objects:
Code: Select all
x = 3, y = 10, rule = B34in/S235kn
b2o$2o$b2o$2bo3$2bo$b2o$2o$b2o!
My advice is to make non-explosive but interesting rules. For example, you could remove S2e and get this rule which is not explosive but still produces some interesting oscillators like these:
Code: Select all
x = 10, y = 4, rule = B34in/S2-e35kn
2o5b2o$o5bo2bo$6bobo$7b2o!
My new p2p:
Code: Select all
x = 20, y = 13, rule = B3/S23
4bo5b2obo$2b3o5bob2o$bo14b2o$bo2b3o4b3o2bobo$2obo3bo2bo3bobobo$3bo3b4o
3bobob2o$3bo3bo2bo3bobobo$4b3o4b3o2bobo$16b2o$4b3o4b3o$4bo2bo3bo2bo$6b
obo4bobo$7bo6bo!

I've moved both of these posts to the Sandbox, because they both got reported:
Report reason: Other
Reported June 8th, 2023, 2:35 pm
One of two threads (along with viewtopic.php?p=162483#p162483 ) created by the same member mentioning the same rule (B34in/S235kn).
Posts are chat-like (
forum rule 4: This is an academic forum, not a chat or microblogging platform)
The basic ideas here are
1) Welcome to the forums! and
2) we'd rather not end up with piles of separate threads with single-line messages in them. It's better to find an existing Sandbox thread and add this kind of message there.

dvgrn moved two single-line posts to Intrepid Life, rather than normally non-existent thread (in the Sandbox) named 'SuperLife'.
