User:Pzq Alex/Rules 1 transition from Life
| This article is a stub. You can help LifeWiki by expanding it. |
This page documents isotropic non-totalistic rules that are only one transition from Life.
Note: Here we do not consider B0.
Birth transitions
B1
B1c3/S23
An explosive rule characterized by the exploding dot replicator.
B1e3/S23
Also explosive, but fills a growing diamond-shaped region with density of about 50%.
B2
B2c3/S23
Random soups expand and create some temporary stable objects.
B2e3/S23
Random soups expand and emit some small five-bit spaceships.

B2k3/S23
Similar to 3-4 Life, soups create expanding chaotic blobs, shooting gliders outwards.
B2a3/S23
Explosive, as with Seeds.
B2i3/S23
Similar to DryLife, soups create expanding clouds of chaos, shooting gliders outwards.
| Common P20 in B2i3/S23. (click above to open LifeViewer) |
B2n3/S23
Similar to DryLife, soups create expanding clouds of chaos, shooting gliders and occasionally xWSSes outwards.
B3
B3-c/S23
Similar to Life, but honey farms do not form naturally.
B3-e/S23
Similar to Life. There is a natural P46 (not the twin bees shuttle!), a 2c/11 diagonal, and a c/14 diagonal. There is also a (58, 18)c/295 oblique puffer evolving from an R+block collision, a 15c/59 orthogonal puffer evolving from a pi+two tubs collision. .

| natural 15c/59o puffer starting from a pi+two tubs collision. (click above to open LifeViewer) |
B3-k/S23
Similar to Life, but with some special oscillators and a natural 5c/16o.
| Left to right: P2, P4, P4, 5c/16o. (click above to open LifeViewer) |
B3-a/S23
Patterns never escape their bounding diamonds.
B3-i/S23
Patterns never escape their bounding boxes.
B3-n/S23
Similar to Life, with a P5, a P6, and a 27c/118 diagonal puffer.
| A P5 and a P6. (click above to open LifeViewer) |

B3-r/S23
Fishhooks are more common.
| Left: a predecessor of a semi-common 22-cell still life. Right: the worker bee works without external support. (click above to open LifeViewer) |
B4
B34e/S23
Fleets are instead a pair of eleveners. Other than that and the lack of working honey farms, not much difference from Life.
B34w/S23
Features a quadratic replicator from the traffic light sequence, making it extremely common.
| c/2o, period 6 (click above to open LifeViewer) |
B6
B36n/S23
The HighLife replicator works, but closer to Life in other respects.
B37e/S23
Settles down similar to Life, but with a common infinite growth pattern arising from the I-heptomino.
| I-heptomino becomes (11,11)c/52 puffer (click above to open LifeViewer) |
B8
B38/S23
Has an article: Pedestrian Life.
Survival transitions
S0
B3/S023
Has an article: DotLife.
S1
B3/S1c23
Very explosive.
B3/S1e23
Very explosive.
S2
B3/S2-i3
Has both the glider and the c/5o T-ship from tlife. Honeycombs form from phi sparks. The cap is a period-4 oscillator.
S4
B3/S234z
Lasts longer and expands more than Life, but still not explosive. The pi heptomino becomes a dead spark coil and a beehive. Hats are also more common.
S8
B3/S238
Has an article: EightLife.
