Edit 1: Just discovered a new breeder, here's its predecessor



This si empty.


Yeah, I discovered it but then lost it to time, i have no idea what it was anymore unfortunately. someone will find it someday

Edit: if you wanna look for it, it used wickerships (my discovery) adjacent to each ...

x = 23, y = 132, rule = B3678/S34678

It looks like the wick burns at 6c/8, which is faster than the fastest possible orthogonal spaceship speed in Day & Night.


yeah, it does :/

also does anybody have a wickstretcher for this?

Sorry, I included two copies of the one ship to make comparing the front and back ends easier.
Here's ...

This frontend is well known, and in fact the first known spaceship in D&N contains it:
x = 5, y = 8, rule = B3678/S34678

I'm talking about the Double Engine which a few ships I've found like the Wicker ship have

actually found that a few minutes before you posted this but did not say anything lol

I haven't seen this pattern at any previous point, I checked the catagolue and it wasn't there.

x = 15, y = 49, rule = B3678/S34678

Found this pattern and I'm not sure quite how to classify it. It's like a wickstretcher, except the wick is "noisy".

alr, i'm just kinda impatient :/ i'll avoid doing it from now on tho

How would I post it on here? I'm not too familiar with the forums or catalogue. should I make a new topic? or how would I?

I have a spaceship in b3678s34678 that I do not see in Catagolue, and want to directly submit it, but apgsearch seems to only submit anything it "discovers", and I want to submit a specific pattern. Also, what does a symmetry mean? (aka symmetry C1)
