B2ce3ai/S23

The other end of that block chain can be shifted outward as well, which might facilitate faster building:

Can the plumes be perturbed by catalysts north of the input lane to make an edge-reflector?

Can the plumes be perturbed by catalysts north of the input lane to make an edge-reflector?

Here's a 180 degree edge reflector based on that:

Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be possible to hook the output into another stable reflector other than itself. There's also not really a repeat time since the output lane overlaps the input lane.

In other news, I found a signal elbow which allows for closed signal loops! It's got a repeat time of 12. Here's a demonstration:

The first one may still be useful though, as its output is delayed by 6 gens relative to the simple elbow. The simple elbow when chained produces a signal of speed 3c/4, but that's not very efficient since transfer speeds asymptotically approaching c can be achieved.

Nice find. This rule really seems like Life on easy mode.

If you can split a signal and find a fast signal-to-glider conversion, you'd have true period glider guns at every period except a few in the first 20 or so. As far as I know, we have glider guns at 12, 26, 52, 60, 61 and 67 and above.

This rule seems to be begging for a history rule, but "B2ce3ai_S23_History" doesn't really sound good.

I've already made a rule for it, I just am wondering whether we should figure out a generic name for the rule or not, and if so, what. (I'm not suggesting to change the bare rule's ruletable name itself)

I recently made a script to generate arbitrary [R]History rules, where [R] is any (not necessarily isotropic) 2-state Moore-neighborhood rule, by dirtily modifying my own apgsearch v0.Ni code. I've been reluctant to post it, because the interface is bad, the code is not clearly commented, and it hasn't been tested enough; it also simplistically just capitalizes the first letter of the rulename and appends "History", so it misgenerates some existing [R]History names, like "TLifeHistory", for example. I will, however, post it soon if anyone wants to use it (probably with some added features such as custom rulenames).

Unfortunately, it's hard to build, has repeat time 53, and produces gliders of the same parity as the blockic reflector, which means it doesn't fix my salvo-builder.
However, it's a better inserter, especially for the "put a glider behind" case.

Right now the known conduits are a few glider reflectors/duplicators, converters between hives and gliders (both ways) and (treating hives as the equivalent of Herschels) the following conduits: F41 and T36 (T for turn, since the main object used is symmetric. I still use forward because generally the conduits cant take in an output from the 'wrong' side). F41 and T36 both have many forms due to needing something to suppress a side reaction at the entry (which can be accomplished many ways) but there's no general form that has asserted itself as the most convenient yet.
...I don't know if that information above need to be posted. The main point of this post is to show off some extra additions to the conduits list, starting with the giant F124:

There's also a splitter conduit (T123/T104). I've found only one conduit that can take the gen 104 output, and it has the unfortunate problem that I've only been able to connect it to another conduit (it's an F56, not sure what to count its inputs as though) which I've only been able to connect to itself. I attached those conduits as well as a T36 to the gen 123 output to demonstrate its splitting ability:

Note that I generally don't count hives as actually having become an output yet if they are going to interact with the already-existing catalysts in the next generation.

FINAL EDIT: I found a 90 degree edge reflector with repeat time of 50 ticks. It can also be upgraded to a duplicator, which increases repeat time to 76 ticks. Though it's not exactly a highway robber yet, it's much better than the previous 180 degree reflector:

Here's a F42, a related splitter F42/F42b, and T36 joined to that splitter:

2o$114bo6b2o$113bobo$113bobo$114bo5b2o$120b2o!

When joined to T36 (the only one I know that works together with it), the left side of the splitter can use any of T36, F41, F42, as long as the right side is F42b. It has a repeat time of 58. This enables true period glider guns for all periods 58 and above.

So true period guns are currently known for periods 12, 22, 26, 44, 52, and 58 and above (examples given for 58-61):

- Copy the first code block, paste it into a text editor and save as a new file "B2ce3ai_S23.rule" in the Rules folder for Golly.

- In Golly, Control -> Set Rule... , then type "B2ce3ai_S23" in the box labeled "Enter a new rule:". If you want, type "B2ce3ai_S23" in the second box and click "Add" so you never have to type "B2ce3ai_S23" again. Then click OK.

- Now you can load any pattern here in the same way as you would load any Life pattern.

All are derived from the p12 gun. p24 uses a p8 phoenix sparker to delete every second glider. p36 uses a couple instances of a p9 sparker that is a variant of a p18 on Catagolue, each of which delete every third glider. p48 is just p24 with the period doubler.

Are there any other ships aside from the glider and the tagalong on catagolue?
