Cool. Is there a tool where /B01?2?3?4?\/S0?1?2?3?V/ ruleSTRINGS can be converted to equivalent nontotalistic life-like two-state Moore-ruleSTRINGS?

Q.: Why? For *.* purpose?

A.: Yes, I would like to use existing glider searching tools for inspecting B0*V spaces

Now, I made my version, this is a CLI utility in order to use it with command line glider search programs that support BOTH B0 and nontotalistic Moore rulestrings.

# Neumann to Moore rulestring converter utility.
# Idea from _zM's golly script stub and recreated using this:
# http://golly.sourceforge.net/Help/Algorithms/QuickLife.html#nontotal
#
# NASZVADI, P. 2016.12.*, don't violate the law of the author
#
# Usage:
# run with the following parameters:
#
# APPLICATION [-d|-diag|--diag] <Neumann rulestring>
#
# It prints the equivalent 2D nontotalistic Moore rule
# Using the -d/-diag/--diag switch, only the same colours
# of used on the infinite checkerboard on the cellspace,
# so a diagonal rule is created, which is useful for
# glider searching programs that can perform hunting for
# orthogonal gliders.

import sys

myarglist = sys.argv[1:]
for oldrule in myarglist:
  if oldrule[0] != '-':
    break
newrule = ""

Banks-III rule - the referred pattern works between these rules:
B2ce3e4jr5cin6acik7c8/S012ei3aijr4acjqrt5aceijnqy67c8 - B2cein3ejk4ijkrwz5cinry6acikn78/S012eikn3aeijkqry4acjqrtwz5aceijnqy67c8

Simplified (same) rulestrings:
B2ce3e4jr5cin6-en7c8/S012ei3aijr4acjqrt5-kr67c8 - B2-ak3ejk4ijkrwz5cinry6-e78/S012-ac3-cn4-eikny5-kr67c8

Is there a spaceship in any of such rules?

Is there a spaceship in any of such rules?

A while back I tried using ntzfind on Banks. I didnt get any spaceships but I did get quite a few long and somewhat interesting partials.
Unfortunately I only posted 2 (on Discord) so here they are

Last night I wrote an article about Banks-I on LifeWiki: OCA:Banks-I
Now I'd like to ask, what's the black-white reversal of the rule B3e4ejr5cinqy6-ei78/S012-e3-ajk4-akqw5-ajk6-e78? I can only figure out the reversal of Hunting's diagonal equivalent above:

Said reversal must has some connection to these Margolus-emulating rules, as the signal in Banks-I is extensible in width and those square oscillators exist on a dense agar:

Code: Select all

Mmm... That is c̶o̶r̶r̶e̶c̶t̶ ̶i̶n̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶u̶s̶u̶a̶l̶ ̶s̶e̶n̶s̶e̶ ̶b̶u̶t̶ ̶n̶o̶t̶ ̶w̶o̶r̶k̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶f̶o̶r̶ ̶m̶y̶ ̶p̶u̶r̶p̶o̶s̶e̶. (EDIT: wrong, as the survival condition should be subtracted from 8.) The negation should actually be taken on the von Neumann neighbourhood instead of the Moore neighbourhood. (EDIT: nope, after correction the Moore reversal is fine)

Anyway, given an INT rule on the von Neumann neighbourhood, it is easy to write the diagonal equivalent INT Moore rule by appending c's to the 1,3 and 4's, putting 2c if two neighbours are near/cis or 2n if two neighbours are opposite/trans, and deleting the V. Then the orthogonal equivalent INT Moore rule follows from the dictionary adapted from _zM:

Code: Select all

dict = {
	"0":"01c2cn3c4c",
	"1c":"1e2ak3inqy4ny5e",
	"2c":"2e3ajk4akqw5ajk6e",
	"2n":"2i3r4itz5r6i",
	"3c":"7e6ak5inqy4jr3e",
	"4c":"87c6cn5c4e",
	"B":"B",
	"S":"S",
	"/":"/"

These two steps will map Banks-I to B3c4c/S01c2n3c4c and then B3e4ejr5cinqy6-ei78/S012-e3-ajk4-akqw5-ajk6-e78, verifying PHPBB12345's result. Meanwhile, the anti-Banks-I, the black-white reversal on the von Neumann neighbourhood, maps to B2c/S2cn3c4c and then B2e3ajk4akqw5ajk6e/S2ei3aejkr4-cny5-e678, as you can see:

Code: Select all

x = 154, y = 110, rule = B2e3ajk4akqw5ajk6e/S2ei3aejkr4-cny5-e678
