Well, the snake is used as rock. Block is separated from others, but I think that it's the part of the entire thing because it's part of eater 5.

OK, you have free the LWSS :)
But now you need to reconstruct 2 blocks for a repeatability.
The matter is to reconstruct/keep the lower missing Fx119's block, I think ...

Edit:
3 blocks to reconstruct :

Code: Select all

x = 44, y = 37, rule = B3/S23

Maybe, or maybe not. There is not much space around the loaf. At least the loaf+block version (xs11_w69a4z33) is compatible with the three-glider synthesis displayed on Catagolue, and only one of four gliders doing the recovery work needs to cross the input/output lanes:

Here is a variant that might be easier to work with, as it only requires 3 gliders. Although it does not produce any active regions, it produces two gliders, and a third one can be extracted by removing the rightmost block at the expense of leaving behind an extra block:

Code: Select all

Did you just happen to use my D-to-beehive or is it just a coincidence?

Ah well, I saw your post and decided to do something with that active region so that there are more than 3 conduits with a dove input (and all of them output a glider). Actually, I was wondering why there is a symbol for a dove in conduits when it seems almost useless as an input. More work should be put on this active region.
