Oscillatorize (Game)

Post by BokaBB »

Oscillatorize is a new,super fun and challenging game by me.
There is a pattern, which in the case of the first game looks like this:

Code: Select all

x = 29, y = 27, rule = B3/S23
2$3bo7bo11bo$20bo$14bo2$27bo2$6bo15bo$14bo2$bo24bo2$4bo15bo2$28bo$12bo
$20bo$26bo$13bo$7bo3$17bo3$11bo5bo!
The players should turn it into an oscillator so that:
- All the cells of the starting pattern are a part of the stator
- The stator has the smallest possible number of cells
- The rotor has the highest possible number of cells and the highest possible period
- The overall oscillator has the highest possible period
- The oscillator is not a billiard table
- The bounding diamond of the oscillator is the smallest possible
I know that the second,third,fourth and fifth will be hard to compromise but we will see what happens.
After this one is solved, you can post your own puzzles.
Have a good day!

Partial solution:

Code: Select all

x = 28, y = 26, rule = B3/S23

Hmmm,you hit directly in the problem....
I think that only solutions that are connected should be valid (but they can be trivial).
Also,are all of them a part of the stator?
Have a good day!

Yes, every cell that I solved is a stator cell.
