A proper collection of H-to-Gn glider-pair makers would come in handy now and again. By the time I found a good H-to-G10 that I'd been looking for for years, I couldn't remember what I needed it for...!

Given that this post from 5 months ago is the only hit for a forum search of "G10", I'll ask - do you still have said H-to-G10? (A potential use would be a 3fd block pull)

I'll second the sentiment as well - I think it would be a great job for someone with free time (more than any of us will admit to having) to compile an H-to-2G stamp collection outside of the realm of just transmitters. I know I have seen many scattered throughout the forums that didn't appear in any stamp collection posting.

Hmm. That was only five months ago? I already don't remember where I ran across that detail, and the time when I wanted a G10 was way back around 2002-2003. There doesn't seem to be an elementary G10 in my pattern files. By "good H-to-G10", I'm pretty sure I meant something slow and composite like this:

The 3fd block pull is probably a big part of why 10hd universal constructors seem to be so much more efficient than 9fd U.C.s. Is there something else a 3fd block pull would be good for?

[biggiemac]

The only reason I looked for it is because I'm trying to apply new technology to the Traffic Jam Extruder and see how quick and compact I can make it. The main difference between Jason Summers' version and mine is that in mine a majority of the components are blind to the changes that make the jam appear in the right place - most information is stored in the parity of semi-snarks rather than fed back every iteration.

I have an outline but none of the nitty-gritty has been worked out in detail. The repeat time would be improved were some things to exist, including a reasonable G->G10 to pull a target block by 3fd (unfortunately, due to timing constraints the composite you've posted would require a lot of finagling to get to work; otherwise it would likely be the limiting factor).

This pursuit was also the reason I had the color-varying salvo+target question in the other thread, although I've found a much better way to achieve the same goal in this case with semi-snarks (make both colors, which one survives depends on the semi-snark parity).

I'm impressed it squeezes through like that. And it cleans up both blocks with the FNG, how cute! That top area is active for a while after the reaction moves downward, perhaps a fancy catalyst could replace the block?

Darts can trigger the "pushing" reaction of a beehive. It is slow-salvo friendly, as every reactions seen are short and don't collide the next. Unfortunately, the long cycle ends up producing half-TLS (but far from the main reaction. The next cycle's TLs collide them, as it is a very slow impush: it's a 5-step cycle in which the beehive moves 2 cells forward, in comparison to the "standard" impush. That's rather sad. If one could destroy those blinkers in any way...

Eng… is that somewhat useless or is this pertaining to the quadratic-growth Geminoid challenge?

[dvgrn]

Eng… is that somewhat useless or is this pertaining to the quadratic-growth Geminoid challenge?

Nothing to do with quadratic-growth Geminoids, for sure -- if we were crazy, we might build one dart per cycle, then hit it from behind with an LWSS... but definitely not lots of darts to push a beehive, even if it could be made to work.

This seems like a perfectly fine "unsure" discovery to me, though. Yes, this one almost certainly is ultimately useless, but it's can be hard to tell sometimes (at least until you have a lot of experience) whether somebody on the forums might be able to supply a neat trick to work around an annoying little problem, like the far-to-the-side extra blinkers here.

[towerator]

The result is not that bad: 2 LWSSs can create a glider and a MWSS can destroy them. Also, there is a helpful reaction in which a LWSS can "push forward" the blinkers, allowing some degrees of freedom.

x = 72, y = 70, rule = B3/S23

I therefore made a flottilla made of 2 LWSS and 1 MWSS to destroy the blinkers and create a glider. I have problems on synchronization, however...

Two copies of a simple growing spaceship interact to make a 20c/54 rake emulator. Perhaps this has been made before but I don't know of prior record of anything more than the fuse, which I found in jslife.
