I think the glider must do not touch the bounding diamond.

Close but no cigar.
A glider would be considered “escaped” If it were outside the bounding diamond, facing in such a way that it were moving away from the bounding diamond both vertically and horizontally, and had sufficient ...

Re: Strict definitions

Here is a suggestion. It is probably clunky and can be improved:
Each period of the oscillator is composed of various polyplets. If, at any point in the evolution of the oscillator, any individual polyplet or group of polyplets can be removed from the oscillator and the tampered-with pattern evolves ...

Re: Strict definitions



You can use Catagolue's object page to find if two patterns are interacting or not. If they are interacting, then its one object.


Catagolue is not fool-proof. Go to say D2_+2 and xp15. There’ll be a lot of bi-pentadecathons, but a lot of them simply don’t interact, however their envelopes do ...

Re: Langton's Ant Society

In the previous discussion of oscillators, a notion happened upon me: in many oscillators, if you track a specific ant’s movement in some oscillators, it will not return to its original cell in its original orientation after a period has elapsed. Instead, It will have taken another ant’s place, and ...

I am mostly sure about this discovery, but I am a little unsure due to how simple and astonishing it is. I have done a few forums searches to verify that this is original.

Re: LifeWiki Trusted Account Request Thread - Post requests here

I would like a trusted flag.

Re: Langton's Ant Society


In Langston's ants oscillators with large periods are easier to find than small periods.
What is the lowest period possible?
The lowest I have found is a p16.

x = 4, y = 3, rule = Langtons-Ant
2.BF!

On an unrelated note here is catalysis where the spirals shape is changed
x = 26, y ...

Re: Catagolue Discussion Thread



Why does the number of rules in the Catagolue INT rule table occasionally decrease? A few weeks ago, there were exactly 14,000 apgsearched INT rules, but today, there are only 13,836.

I don’t know, but you could probably sift through or query the rules that are present on the June 27th, 2026 ...

Re: Langton's Ant Society

I created a version of Langton’s Ant where ants cannot destroy each other by occupying the same cell. I did this because in the version of Langton’s Ant that is currently used, there are only 9 states, which can only deal with 1 ant being on each cell. This results in ants that are moving onto the ...
