Edit: Due to a bug this is not actually the longest partial, but I still believe the search is exhaustive.

The introductory post for Tables has been updated. The biggest change is that the oscillator, spaceship/puffer/rake, glider synthesis, and wick/agar collections have all been changed to B3/S23-q4iHistory to show new objects (in yellow) in each collection. The collections will be updated weekly, when applicable.

Other changes:

• A p21 that I had previously forgotten to add was added to the oscillator collection. Since it was already known, it is not in yellow.

• The p23 partial has been completed, and as such removed from the list of partials.

• One of the known p6s has been monomerized. Since the p6 was already known, it is not in yellow.

• The sample synthesis for the small c/2o has been changed from 6 gliders to 5 gliders, to reflect the new smallest synthesis for it.

• The combination of 3 crawlers releasing gliders has been added to the bottom of the original RLE of the crawler.

Credits:

• P1GG found the new p11, p20, p21, and p23, as well as the reduction for the p148.

• Pifricted found the 5g synthesis for the small c/2o.

• Splitterrules found the combination of 3 crawlers that cleanly releases gliders.

• LuveelVoom found the new c/5o, the new p5, one of the two new p3s, and two of the four new p6s.

• PK22 found one of the four new p6s.

• NNlk05 found the 3g LWSS synthesis.

• I found the other new p3, the new p4, and one of the four new p6s.

If you feel like there are any improvements needed for the introductory post, please leave a suggestion. If you feel that you or something you found has been unduly left out of the credits here, just let me know.

I've recently invented this terminology for determining how likely an object is to be involved in a transparent reaction. For each common (>10 mil C1 occurrences) object in Tables, here is the relative inverse opaqueness to the block. A value of X means that the object is X times less likely than the block to occur in a transparent reaction.

Code: Select all

Block - 1.0
Blinker - 2.0
Beehive - 8.2
Pond - 21.7
Boat - 37.5
Ship - 89.2
Loaf - 217.1

The 4-block and traffic light aren't included because Catagolue has no object grouping.

Note that some objects may have common transparency reactions and thus be more likely to actually occur in a conduit.

This was calculated by taking the # of occurrences divided by the number of symmetries (and periods for the blinker) and dividing 874 million (block occurences) by that number.

As it stands, there are phasing issues with the p24 reflectors. I've tested most configurations with it, but not all of them, and I haven't tried the p21 at all yet, so that's what I'll be doing next.

Additionally, here are three "synthesis partials," if you can call them that, using the wing, which I have been unable to complete due to the difficulty of working with the current wing synthesis.
