Are there guns for any of the bigger ships that do not involve syntheses using the three basic photons?

None known yet, although it seems like one might be possible, although hard to explicitly construct, for the 2c/6.

What I think is the longest-lived pattern in a 4x4 box (574 gens, I think there are other predecessors to the same gen 1, but I'm not sure):

Managed to finally synthesize the weird 23-bitter from 13G:

Code: Select all

x = 21, y = 17, rule = tlife

I totally forgot about that, sorry. The predecessor in the soup seems like it could possibly reduce that synthesis, though.

And it indeed does, after looking in M. I. Wright's backwards-G-plus-T collision table:

Code: Select all

x = 34, y = 36, rule = B3/S2-i34q

On an unrelated note, is there any way to assemble this loop predecessor?

Code: Select all

Just so you know, I sorted those a while back, in case that's at all useful.
