Looks like this never got to catagolue. Completed so that xs32_rb8b5ozw69961tic costs 43G, down from the current 75G. And should lower the cost of xp10_oo0u13z624b8l90cx8ozy11ad1dd11 from 146G to 114G.

xs21_0ggohf03123z346 down to 9G, from 10G:

Edit: For reference, the original synthesis makes a xs19_gw8u156zdd11, and then turns the block into a snake:

I found a bunch of syntheses using the two-glider traffic light and glider collision as a base.

Notice that each reaction is in a separate step. Staging syntheses like this has several benefits:

Invalidities caused by nonrewindable gliders are both rarer (because you don't have to worry about gliders from one step colliding with gliders from a different step) and easier to fix (because you don't have to worry about retimed gliders getting involved in another invalidity).
It is easier to see what is going on in each step and therefore easier to see potential improvements.
Submitting improvements is easier because you only have to submit the modified steps, not the entire new synthesis.
- In fact, if you make an initial constellation less cheaply than is possible (e.g., construct two nearby common still-lives with four gliders instead of three), and a synthesis previously submitted to Catagolue constructs it using a cheaper way, Catagolue will automatically correct it for you—but only if both syntheses are completely staged. (This might also apply to later steps, depending on the scope of transfer.py, but even if not, I have seen Catagolue do this at least twice.)
- Also, if the new, cheaper version of a particular step happens to be slower, you don't have to rewind all of the gliders afterwards and risk making a mistake.
Also, when replacing a step with a cheaper version, you don't have to struggle to figure out which gliders from the original synthesis you need to remove or struggle to align the new gliders.
For slow components, staging is how transfer.py is able to learn, and it gives transfer.py more opportunities to make improvements, such as if an extra object that your first instinct is to clean up before applying a converter could actually be used by a different version of that converter.
Staging syntheses makes them overall just less overwhelming to look at.
There is an automated program that can search for more efficient cleanups of constellations, but it only works when the cleanup is in a separate stage from the reaction that makes the final object, and it's more effective when the cleanup is staged as much as possible (without making it more expensive).

Staging syntheses makes applying fast components more convenient because the syntheses for the starting constellations do not need to be submitted again, such as in this example.

For these reasons (and possibly others that I am forgetting), it is encouraged to stage syntheses as much as possible without increasing total cost.

Mirrored tables by themselves only cost four gliders, so the first can be made cheaper by making them in the most efficient way. Likewise, an aligned cap and table only costs four gliders by itself, so the second can be likewise cheapened. If you had made (and cleaned up) the mirrored tables in an earlier stage before converting them, Catagolue would have found the first improvement by itself, and transfer.py would have found the second improvement by itself, so this is another demonstration that you should stage your syntheses.

also, on an unrelated note: i feel like there should be a "SL synthesis supply thread" that gives seeds for still lifes.

Here is a way to construct xs26_39egml9a4z0dbw1 incrementally from xs22_2lmge93z01wbd (which currently costs 18 gliders). The target 26-bitter appears in a variant of the recent p164 mod41 oscillator with minimum population of 333 alive cells.

how can i add more blinkers and blocks to make a clean seed that solely produces the still life?

The reason that that was a bad thing was because syntheses require over one glider per stage by definition (because the first stage requires at least two gliders), so syntheses with many stages must be expensive, not because syntheses with lots of stages are inherently bad. Overcompensation is not the appropriate response. In fact, staging syntheses is better when it does not increase the cost for reasons listed here.

I hope that I didn't come off too harsh. I don't think that I did, but I know that have a history of making social misjudgements. In case it helps, there are fast components that can either do the same thing as converters but more efficiently or make changes that we currently don't have converters for. These are worth looking for and submitting when they are cheaper then any alternative with more stages, and I encourage you to look for when they would decrease synthesis costs of related still-lives relative to using slow components. It's better for everyone who synthesizes still-lives to know about these because they come up often, looking for the most commonly applicable ones is easy and quick, and it is inefficient and impractical for one person to look through every synthesis submitted to Catagolue. (Please do not feel like I am trying to criticize you for not using fast components. I am aware that your lack of prior knowledge is perfectly reasonable and am not trying to criticize you. I am merely trying to open your eyes to opportunities where fast components can cheapen syntheses in the future.) I have also attached my repository of fast components.

Do you want to talk about problems?

Catagolue states that "Distinct components in the pattern must be separated by at least 20 blank columns or rows".
One of my first syntheses had more than 20 blank columns between gliders.
I tried to modify it to lower this count. Eventually I succeeded.
But then I noticed that other submitted syntheses have more than 20 blank columns of separation.
Next I submitted variant with larger spaces and it was accepted.

Combined with the fact, that Catagolue forces people to wait for 4 hours to see if their submission was correct, I decided that learning of how exactly multistage syntheses work was not worth the efforts.

However, even in imaginary case of user-friendly Catagolue, number of synthesis stages looks like matter of taste.
Some people like to see picture as a whole, some people like to focus on separate parts of the solution.
Same situation appears with programming:
Sometimes you see people make 3 functions with 3 lines of code in each, sometimes - 1 function with 9 lines of code.
Arguing which is better in lots of the cases will be just waste of time.

It was more than 4 hours before (IIRC it was 8 hours at some point, and possibly longer before that).

Separating stages in glider syntheses is objectively better from the viewpoint of maintaining a database of incremental syntheses. The same intermediate can appear in multiple different glider syntheses. Separating the synthesis into many stages reduces duplication. When a cheaper synthesis of an intermediate object is found, that can automatically reduce the glider cost of many other objects.

I don't understand the earlier "over one glider by stage" claim above, AFAIK single-glider stages (such as adding a boat-bit or a single-glider cleanup) are accepted too.

How often stages are reused?
I suspect that database may be filled with useless stages, which have no chance to appear somewhere else.

"We can solve any problem by introducing an extra level of indirection. Except for the problem of too many levels of indirection"

To motivate people to extract useful stages, Catagolue may show use counts for every stage used in particular synthesis.
But sadly there is almost no chance of it happening in foreseeable future.

No, it's not "an extra level of indirection", it is a necessity. It would be practically impossible to maintain a comparable database of syntheses if the incremental syntheses were not separated into stages.

For many more examples, I think it would be enough to look through recent logs from time to time.

Looks like I need to refine my question:
How many useless stages database contains compared to useful ones?

Now that might be more of a matter of taste, compared to the basic principle of separating sequential stages in an incremental synthesis.

For example, sometimes (during a multistage incremental synthesis of some costly target) there are two or more well-separated (as in a constellation) temporary objects that need to be constructed before a synthesis component can be applied to modify the "growing target". The order in which those temporary objects are constructed (to be consumed all at once) may be unimportant, if neither of them interferes with construction of another one. Then it might make sense to combine construction of all those temporary objects into a single stage. (Possibly also combine with the stage where those objects are consumed and the synthesis component is applied.)
