Seems to give the biggest spark. Think we can make a splitter with another xp37 added to it?

I saw that the p37 spark could turn the reaction into a T-oscillator, so I made a 180-degree reflector out of it. Because of the time it takes to make the T-oscillator, this reflector actually has double the repeat time, 74. Unfortunately, the offset isn't great enough for you to really use repeatedly.

#C [[ STOP 8 ]]

Also, since Hunter's p37 is becoming very useful for spaceship tech in this rule, should we give it a proper name? I've had this thought in the back of my mind, that if a very versatile high-period oscillator is found in the rule, and is good enough to actually give the rule some potential in technology, we could dub it "Savior". I feel this oscillator would be worthy of that name.

Speaking of which,

The rightmost one is probably the smallest in terms of bounding box (10), and tied smallest in terms of cell count (5).

If we are gonna call an oscillator savior then I rather wait to see if anyone is used for a gun (Most likely the p37 as of now).

If we are gonna call an oscillator savior then I rather wait to see if anyone is used for a gun (Most likely the p37 as of now).

Fair. Speaking of guns I just realized that a reaction where a, ahem, Skedaddler turns into two or more T-oscillators (or a collision between Skedaddlers that makes more T-oscillators) would probably be just as good as an over-unity reaction, since we can turn the T-oscillators into those pretty easily.

In the meantime, here's a... level-unity reaction? You could probably make an oscillator out of this.

Code: Select all

x = 21, y = 46, rule = B35/S126

2b4o$5bo4bo$5bo4bo$7b2o$7b2o$bo4bo2bo4bo$o5bo2bo5bo$7b2o4$5b2o2b2o!

I'm working on a Python script for Golly that would create random collisions between p37s and Skedaddlers to see what shows up. I'll also try to make it so that the script discards reactions that destroy the p37 or let the spaceship travel unaffected, so we don't get any bogus results.

I've also concluded that, in a 10-by-16 bounding box (with some small sections cut off), and with a duration no more than 14, Skedaddler-eating reactions involving still lifes do not exist. So chances are there is no still life Skedaddler eater, or if there is then it might have to be manually built.

To be fair, still lifes in this rule generally suck at catalysis, and unlike in Life, there isn't nearly as much motif diversity.

Call the thing on the second row a Hook. Also hows your python script going?

[TheWayOfTheCon]

Call the thing on the second row a Hook. Also hows your python script going?

1: Hook is an already-used term for a pattern in CGOL, and I'd prefer names that don't match ones for notable patterns (Hook is a grandparent of the Block, the most common object in CGOL).

2: The script is coming along nicely, I've just been going slow with developing it. What's left to add is detecting if the Skedaddler is unaffected by the p37, and putting the results into a text file so I can pipe it into Catagolue.

Fishing Hook or Paperclip then?

Sweet. Cant wait to see the results. Also will the script have two p37s at a time or just one?

[actinophrys]

Since you're inviting suggestions...the second p1 makes sense as a partial beehive, or a beefive if you want something short. Then second last you have a beehive split in two, specifically into bananas, so you could call it a banana split. (There is another 5-cell p1 in B3/S12 that is also a beehive missing one cell, but that one could also be called a narrow bucket instead. Paperclip and fishhook are already used.)

Also, does the little 6-cell p2 have any name? To me it looks like a long ship partly swamped by waves on each side, and in B3/S12 there is also a 5-cell p2 that is kind of the equivalent with just a ship. That suggests something along the lines of "long shipwreck" and "shipwreck" except those don't seem quite right for things that are never actually going to go down.

Why is the beefive listed as 7 lol its a still life

[TheWayOfTheCon]

Since you're inviting suggestions...the second p1 makes sense as a partial beehive, or a beefive if you want something short. Then second last you have a beehive split in two, specifically into bananas, so you could call it a banana split. (There is another 5-cell p1 in B3/S12 that is also a beehive missing one cell, but that one could also be called a narrow bucket instead. Paperclip and fishhook are already used.)

Also, does the little 6-cell p2 have any name?

That suggests something along the lines of "long shipwreck" and "shipwreck" except those don't seem quite right for things that are never actually going to go down.

I'm accepting beefive and banana split. As for the p2, there's no name for it currently, but I'm not fond of "shipwreck". I'm thinking that, if oscillation is analogous to light (going off of blinker and traffic light) we could call it "glowstick"?

Also a lot of still lifes in this rule seem to be shared with Flock, so maybe the thread for that has some common names for the still lifes in B35/S126.

Why is the beefive listed as 7 lol its a still life

It was identified as a (2,1)c/6 partial because there were no longer ones with the same seedcolumn. There would certainly be better partials if the width were increased.

[actinophrys]

Also a lot of still lifes in this rule seem to be shared with Flock, so maybe the thread for that has some common names for the still lifes in B35/S126.

For the record all the still lifes here will work in Flock. Any exception would have to have some cells with 6 neighbours. But assuming there are a finite and non-zero number of those, you can choose the first under some ordering of the grid – say the leftmost such cell in the top row where one exists. And then looking at the ways its neighbours could be arranged, there are no possibilities where some earlier cell does not have more than two. The Flock conversation wasn't so interested in names or p1s though.

I propose that this rule be named "Eppstein Flock", seeing as Life is to Eppstein as Flock is to this rule.

[Hunter]

I propose that this rule be named "Eppstein Flock", seeing as Life is to Eppstein as Flock is to this rule.

I feel like that is boring, Though I do like naming it after Eppstein and Flock seeing that B35s126 is like a perfect mix between them and will be listed in the middle of both of them. I think what would be better to combine those words so something like Flockstein.

Thoughts?

Yeah, I like "Flockstein". It might be too on the nose, but I would also suggest "Flockenstein", because the change is barely noticeable and references how the rulestring is a kind of Frankenstein between the two other rules.

If anyone wants to submit a spaceship I've missed, feel free to do so.

I am currently doing an LSSS search for (2,1)c/6 width-12 spaceships in this rule.

If anyone wants to submit a spaceship I've missed, feel free to do so.

Might want to add these two ships:

Skidaddler Sidecar:

Code: Select all

x = 6, y = 8, rule = B358/S126
4b2o$3b3o$3b2o$4b2o$bo$obo$obo$o!

and this xp3 using the sidecar:

Code: Select all

x = 9, y = 7, rule = B35/S126
3bobo$2bo4b2o$3bo2b2o$o4bo2bo$2bo$bobo$obo!

Dont know if I mentioned the sidecar tech from discord but basically sidecars can be combined together:

Code: Select all

x = 47, y = 100, rule = B358/S126
