Fx119 is an elementary conduit, one of the original sixteen Herschel conduits, discovered by Dave Buckingham on September 15, 1996.[1] After 119 ticks, it produces an inverted Herschel at (20, 14) relative to the input. Its recovery time is 231 ticks; this can be reduced somewhat by suppressing the output Herschel's glider, or by adding extra catalysts to make the reaction settle more quickly, as shown below. Appending a dependent conduit to a standard Fx119 can reduce the repeat time to 160 ticks.
The standard Fx119 conduit produces 3 gliders: the FNG going southwest, the "second natural glider" going northwest, and then another southwest-traveling glider.
In the pattern shown in the infobox, a ghost Herschel marks the output location.
Fast version of Fx119. Repeat time is only 60 ticks, but this variant of the conduit must be followed by a dependent conduit or some other glider-suppressing mechanism.
Standard "Fx119G" suppressed variant, with a repeat time of 196 ticks. No following dependent conduit is needed here. Instead, an extra block is created that absorbs the following Herschel's first natural glider.
