Thank you! That's exactly what I needed.

Basically the title. How was golly-ticker.rle engineered? More generally, how does https://github.com/potsbo/any-ticker function?

I know that for most patterns (all patterns except for so-called “Gardens of Eden”), there is some pattern which will evolve into it on the next generation. Is there any easy way to try to find such a pattern or do you have to do a brute-force search until you either come up something that evolves ...

Thanks!

The lowest-period LWSS gun I can make is period 30, using Gosper Glider Guns. Is there a smaller-period one? I know period 14 would be the lowest possible...
