An end piece for a replicator-based spaceship in B368/S12578.
Code: Select all
x = 114, y = 10, rule = B368/S12578

This fits one end of Hickerson's p104 gun (see
Eppstein's page on this rule). I want to assemble a repship in which c/8d crawlers are generated by this center, moving forward to a frontend and backward to a rear end.
Code: Select all
x = 57, y = 12, rule = B368/S12578

Sketch of what a c/13o ship (=1/4 the speed of the replicator) might look like with this design:

EDIT: The gun has the wrong orientation for this setup, but it might still be possible to combine with Hickerson's 12-unit pull reaction to make a c/26o with period 1248. Or maybe there is something to be done with this procedure to remove one track of replicators from the other side:
Code: Select all
x = 31, y = 17, rule = B368/S12578
