OCA:HighLife/List of common spaceships

This is a list of the most common spaceships in HighLife, specifically Catagolue's B36/S23/C1 census. The approximate relative frequency column gives an estimate of the proportion of all randomly-occurring spaceships that will be of the given type.

Rank	Pattern	Period	Heat	Speed	Minimum # of cells	Approximate relative frequency (out of 1.00)	% Difference in frequency from Life
1	Glider	4	4	c/4 diagonal	5	0.9963	-1.80%
2	Lightweight spaceship	4	11	2c/4 orthogonal	9	0.002442	+63.78%
3	Bomber	48	38.4	8c/48 diagonal	19	0.0005962	-
4	Middleweight spaceship	4	15	2c/4 orthogonal	11	0.0005886	+53.20%
5	Heavyweight spaceship	4	19	2c/4 orthogonal	13	0.00006536	-2.10%
6	[1]	192	138.5	32c/192 diagonal	54	2.047×10-9	-
	[2]	384	150.8	64c/384 diagonal	53	2.047×10-9	-
