ColorfulGalaxy found a new way to extend Life. The universe is divided into regions that run different rules. Technically this would be considered a hybrid rule.

Code: Select all

#BEGIN
x = 25, y = 12, rule = HybridRegionLifeReflector

Is there a script? if not, I want to make one. I like making scripts to use weird rulespaces :D

Give me a suggestion of something interesting to draw here!

Somehow I found a G to T based on that, but the T goes the other way now:

Code: Select all

x = 14, y = 16, rule = B3/S23-a5Investigator

EDIT: Crossposting from Discord, this is a "quasi p13 glider gun" — it consists of a p13 oscillator connected to a RT 14 spark-to-glider, and it attempts to shoot out a glider every 13 generations, however because gliders this close interact with each other, the result ends up being a p39 oscillator:

x = 37, y = 10, rule = StateInvestigator

Here’s my new extended life rule, SLGExtended. It’s an extension of Disaster16439’s rule StaticLifeGrey, and has three new states. 5, which is identical to SI state 17, 6, which is identical to SI state 18, and 7, which has no SI equivalent, but is identical to state 2 from jayden678910’s rule “some”. Here is the ruletable:

Are any 2 cell G to Hs known?
3 cell glider reflector that is a failed highway robber:

Interestingly, it kills the input glider in almost every other lane except for one which reflects the glider, one which produces a beehive and 2 that produce a blinker:

To continue, another 3 cell G to H with a much better G-H angle:

Code: Select all

x = 12, y = 12, rule = LifeInvestigator
8.A$9.A$7.3A4$B3$11.O2$11.B!
A modification of the highway robbing glider duplicator to produce a true 3 cell highway robber:

Code: Select all

x = 14, y = 12, rule = LifeInvestigator
10.A$11.A$9.3A4$B3$13.O2$13.B!
I think that is all of the interesting results from a highway robbing set of a catalyst-killer on cell and another killer on cell on the side 'off the highway'.

It is worth noting that the state 15 cell can be replaced with (the more common) state 4 cell, as the only time state 15 differs is when using state 4 would otherwise cause a birth to 3 on neighbors:
