- Not to be confused with Rx202.
Rx262 is a composite conduit discovered by Martin Grant in April 2015.[1] It is composed of two elementary conduits, HR203B followed by BFx59H. After 262 ticks, it produces an inverted Herschel turned 90 degrees clockwise at (24, 53) relative to the input. Its recovery time is 145 ticks.
Like F166 and Lx200, Rx262 is a dependent conduit that can be made Spartan by replacing the snake with an eater 1 in one of two orientations.
The pattern as shown in the infobox has a ghost Herschel marking the output location. It also starts with a three-tick predecessor of a Herschel, because the initial transparent catalyst block in this or any dependent conduit prevents the actual Herschel stage from forming. A second copy of the conduit is included in the pattern, to the right the working copy, to show the correct input Herschel location. Use this second copy as a guide for appending an Rx262 conduit to a previous Herschel conduit, but be sure to remove the Herschel after the two conduits are aligned correctly.
