KnightlyLife

[Yoel]

UPDATE:

The thread was originally dedicated to B34t/S23-a4i and related rules supporting the same natural knightship. At some point I had named the original rule RidireLife ("ridire" means a knight in Irish Gaelic).

Recently I've been researching another rule in this rulespace, B34jqtz5e/S23-a4eity, notable for many guns and constructions (see posts below) that seem to imply Turing-completeness. Unless I find some really remarkable rule in this rulespace, I'm not going to spawn separate threads for all of them. For the time being, KnightlyLife is my temporary name for this entire rulespace. If I fix my attention on some specific rule within it, KnightlyLife will be its name.

The rule (B34t/S23-a4i) (RidireLife) is notable for common 2,1c/12 knightships and tadpole-like 10c/20. Most commons natural ships:

Varieties include b3-ekry4ts2-c3-acky4i (the minimal transition combination necessary for the knightship) and B34t/S23-a4i (tadpoles with large tails). The tadpoles can be easily turned into puffers, rakes and breeders, which can be, in turn, corderized in various ways. Such constructions often appear naturally.

I submitted objects from Conway's Life that work in this CA identically: census/b34ts23-a4i/ror_stdin_test
In particular, the highest period with a known oscillator from CGoL is 16. The lowest period without a known oscillator from CGoL is 9. The only known shared spaceship is the glider.

Someone else submitted two hauls in September 2018 and one haul in May 2023.

There is another unrelated CA that was meant to be named 'KnightLife', but got named 'KightLife' due to a typo: viewtopic.php?f=11&t=6236

Maybe this should be merged into Thread For Your Unrecognised CA. (Many posts are made in an existing thread (TFYUCA, MDiOCA), instead of making a separate thread that's not likely to get many replies.)

I've just renamed it RidireLife ("ridire" is the knight, meaning the chess piece, in Irish Gaelic). As the other thread's title is misspelled, I did not know that this name has been already taken.

I study hundreds of rules and only open separate threads for very few, if they seem interesting enough to be discussed separately. You can see that I've been agpsearching it for several months. This rule is notable for its unusual, easy corderizable spaceships. Closely related rules supporting the same knightship should be discussed here.

[Yoel]

Renamed this rule as KnightlyLife, because RidireLife sounded too obscure for most people.

[confocaloid]

It looks like there are no known sparkers or catalysts yet, to make a gun? I looked through Catagolue censuses, and tried some collisions between common objects, without finding anything promising.
One of "relatively interesting" collisions was a blinker-shooting reaction:

Code: Select all

x = 14, y = 11, rule = B34t/S23-a4i
bo$2bo$3o6$12b2o$11bobo$12bo!

There is also an one-glider seed for the p20 orthogonal c/2 spaceship:

Code: Select all

x = 5, y = 11, rule = B34t/S23-a4i
bo$2bo$3o6$3b2o$2bobo$3bo!

Renamed this rule as KnightlyLife, because RidireLife sounded too obscure for most people.

Naming choices like this don't really need a separate bump post. The person who originally investigated a ruleset gets to choose a name (same way how the person who discovered a new pattern or reaction get to choose a name for it), within reason as long as the name is not somehow inappropriate in some obvious way.

FWIW, "obscure-looking" names are much less of a problem (and might even be a good thing sometimes), compared to obscure/unintuitive terminology (which is a real problem).
Someone else might unknowingly choose the same name "KnightlyLife" for something unrelated, but it is unlikely that anyone else will unknowingly, accidentally name an unrelated rule set "RidireLife".

[Yoel]

A variety of this rule, B34jqtz5e/S23-a4eity, has been named "KnightlyLife" internally on my computer for several months. It has a plenty of guns:

Code: Select all

x = 1464, y = 492, rule = B34jqtz5e/S23-a4eity

Some other varieties were already mentioned in the original post, which I am going to update in order to reactivate this thread.

The original B34t/S23-a4i will be still called RidireLife, while this gun-rich variety, while the entire rulespace supporting this knightship will be temporarily called KnightlyLife. If I find some really remarkably rule in this rulespace and fix my attention on it, KnightlyLife will be its name. I'm not going to spawn separate threads for each rule in this rulespace. Varieties are to be discussed here.

Sorry for the bump post. It was meant to be a pretext for updating the original post.

It looks like there are no known sparkers or catalysts yet, to make a gun? I looked through Catagolue censuses, and tried some collisions between common objects, without finding anything promising.
One of "relatively interesting" collisions was a blinker-shooting reaction:

Code: Select all

x = 14, y = 11, rule = B34t/S23-a4i
bo$2bo$3o6$12b2o$11bobo$12bo!

There is also an one-glider seed for the p20 orthogonal c/2 spaceship:

Code: Select all

x = 5, y = 11, rule = B34t/S23-a4i
bo$2bo$3o6$3b2o$2bobo$3bo!

Renamed this rule as KnightlyLife, because RidireLife sounded too obscure for most people.

Naming choices like this don't really need a separate bump post. The person who originally investigated a ruleset gets to choose a name (same way how the person who discovered a new pattern or reaction get to choose a name for it), within reason as long as the name is not somehow inappropriate in some obvious way.

FWIW, "obscure-looking" names are much less of a problem (and might even be a good thing sometimes), compared to obscure/unintuitive terminology (which is a real problem).
Someone else might unknowingly choose the same name "KnightlyLife" for something unrelated, but it is unlikely that anyone else will unknowingly, accidentally name an unrelated rule set "RidireLife".
