It is derived from a h-to-g, where there is an extra still-life stabilize the spark and emits a glider; instead, one can use a block bait in a similar location to stabilize the spark, and get that same glider back (works with that Xor-block factory):

Might as well put the banana spark to beehive here, although the beehive is not technically a signal, along with the corollary beehive spin found by ElijahKen (equivalent to the loaf spin in Baker's dozen but with better clearance), which can convert another spark into a glider:

Code: Select all

x = 32, y = 8, rule = B3/S23
7bo17bo$7bo4b2o10bo5b2o$6bo5b2o10bo5b2o2$2b2o3b2o11b2o3b2o$bobo3b2o10b

b2o$3bobo$3bobo$4bo!

Interesting banana spark to beehive (The banana spark can be supplied in two directions):
...

If you replace the eater1 with an eater2 and add a block, you almost get a p21 oscillator:

Code: Select all

x = 17, y = 12, rule = B3/S23
4b2o2b2o$4b2obo2bo$8b2o5b2o$15b2o2$3bob2o3b2o$b3ob2o3b2o$o$b3ob2o$3bo
bo$3bobo$4bo!
[[ STOP 18 ]]

That implies that the combination of the beehive, two blocks and eater 2 has some niche uses as a catalyst, as a 'beehive spin', if you will:

Code: Select all

x = 17, y = 15, rule = B3/S23

$b3ob2o$3bobo$3bobo$4bo!

...
As a matter of fact, this catalyst is equivalent to the loaf spin reaction in Baker's dozen, but is much cheaper and has higher clearance, at the cost of a higher recovery time:

Code: Select all

x = 40, y = 21, rule = B3/S23

EDIT: The banana spark to beehive is apparently a rediscovery:

Broadly-applicable transparent block thing. Spark to beehive.

i suggest that people search for transparent reactions which receive the "massively edgy spark", which can be formed like this, among many other ways

edit: i also suggest finding transparent reactions with this spark-this isn't its most common predecessor, i just too the smallest predecessor i could find. it definitely is common tho

Code: Select all

there's a stable catalyst which works here but i can't find it Since my barrister isn't set up yet

It is completely useless since if you try to connect it to anything, the hook with tail interacts too early.

i'll look for more boat starts and other still lives (i've already checked block to no avail; going to check all the Eonian still lifes later. that's everything more common than the fishhook, which is: beehive, loaf, ship, tub, pond, long boat, ship-tie, barge, half-bakery, mango. god i wish i had gencols)
edit:
i got bored of the boat so i moved to the cooler tub
moves the block by 1 cell and makes a temporary boat with tail (i forgot which orientation it was named) as well as a lom, lol if the block was transparent this would sure be one heck of a lucky reaction

ElijahKen probably means that the bottom one allows the honey farm to be perturbed by other catalysts to potentially make something useful. For example, here is a banana spark to pond I just found by perturbing the honey farm with known catalysts:

Unfortunately this particular pond factory has extremely low clearance, and so may only be used to peturb or stop gliders like the beehive stopper in some way. However, it does show the potential of this honey farm explosion to create more useful objects like a glider or Herschel.
