Could you apgsearch B3-q4w5a7e/S2-k34a5a? Any symmetry works. I put this in the thread for apgsearch requests about a week ago and got nothing. Thank you!

This catalyst is incredibly powerful. It can eat the glider, T, (4,2)c/31, Climbing C (with some assistance), and turn the (4,2)c/15 into an attached induction coil. x = 66, y = 29, rule = B3-qr4k5cek6c/S23-a4er56aek

Crosspost from Rules near Travelling T's

Here's one 4 transitions off with a natural (2,1)c/10. I also found an alien P3 and P4, maybe the P3 could be a weak sparker?

Got rid of B4j for a very sparky P46 and an ENDEMIC 26c/70 that's surprisingly common. Sadly, the rule is explosive due to a common replicator

Doesn't seem to have much sparking capability though, neat to see a high-period natural osc.

This rule is a WIP, I have not discovered much at all in this rule.
B3-q4w5a7e/S2-k34a5a
All I know in this rule is that there are four extremely common ships. A c/8, a completely asymmetrical 2c/7, the glider, and a 3c/9d.

Could someone do more searches in B3-q5y/S234q5e (Haylife) in different symmetries? Preferably fourfold symmetries like C4 4 or D8 4 would be highly appreciated. Thank you :mrgreen:

Any takers?
Sorry if I go off as impatient, but I don't have apgsearch for myself nor other software to make ...
