Nice. They even get rid of the first natural glider. I checked the conduit list and saw that there weren't any conduits that converted a dove into something besides a glider (which is why I was looking for such conduits), but I just remembered that it only lists stable conduits, so what we found may not be new. I'm sorry if I turn out to have wasted your time.Extrementhusiast wrote: ↑November 4th, 2020, 6:27 pmAlthough they use a different spark, P4 and P6 oscillators that suffice are in jslife:
P5 didn't have any working examples, so I found something myself:
By the way, do I have a particular knack for finding Herschel sequences that did not come from B sequences twenty generations earlier, or are there other conduits like this that were already known? The page dependent conduit says that Fx158 is the only conduit that doesn't make the Herschel from its standard great-grandparent, but it could be inaccurate or outdated.

Another edit: I somehow made a Herschel going in the opposite direction (although it's definitely useless unless, at the very least, someone finds a more compact V-sparker).Code: Select all

Edit: I just realized that it's not just some random collision of a glider with a boat and block but rather a wing plus block reaction, so it doesn't seem so useless now.
