apgsearch - haul requests

[Bullet51]

That's not a valid rule, at least according to Golly (or any syntax I've seen)

...then how have people managed to search it and get objects to show up?

Just search B3/S1-ce.
Example soup:

Code: Select all

x = 31, y = 31, rule = B3/S1-ce

How many objects can you get to show up at all in b3s/C1?

That's not a valid rule, at least according to Golly (or any syntax I've seen)

...then how have people managed to search it and get objects to show up?

Well, maybe I'm doing something wrong. Golly can't run that rule in any algorithm.

EDIT:

Just search B3/S1-ce.

Oh, OK.

[muzik]

Even then, both golly and apgmera work perfectly:

Code: Select all

x = 8, y = 8, rule = B3/S
3bo$3bobo$bo$6b2o$2o$6bo$2bobo$4bo!

[drc]

I think Ethan is trying to enter b3s/C1 instead of B3/S

[Ethanagor]

Yea, I also tried B3/SC1 but that didn't work. I'm a noob...

[Apple Bottom]

That's not a valid rule, at least according to Golly (or any syntax I've seen)

It's a rule/symmetry combination: rule B3/S, with C1-symmetrical (i.e. a priori asymmetrical) soups.

EDIT: sorry. I already tried downloading apgsearch but couldn't find the right version to match with golly. I also have no idea what ntzfind is. where do i download it?

For apgsearch, you probably want Aidan's apgsearch-2016-1-21-v0.54+0.21i.py. You'll also need wildmyron's isotropic-rule.py, which generates the necessary rule files -- this was necessary because past Golly didn't natively support non-totalistic rules, and today it's still necessary because apgsearch hasn't been adapted yet to use Golly's native support instead of custom rules.

For more, see the wiki.

it didn't work.
edit: also, this seems unnecessarily more complicated than one of you just searching the rule.

[drc]

That kind of came off as rude, and I frankly, along with most of the Life community (can't speak for them though), just don't find that rule that interesting.

In order to get any traction, you must demonstrate common intricacies.

[Apple Bottom]

What exactly didn't work? Where are you getting stuck?

What's the slowest ship we can get to show up in B2c3ae4ai56c/S2-kn3-enq4?

[Saka]

b2-akn3ai/s23-a4i please
Has a 8,6c/24 knightship, a p20, and other stuff. Only 1 odd period oscillator has showed up so that's something.

I have free cpu cycles to give up, and I really want a rule to search.

tlife, please. My computer can't handle it anymore.

Regular Life, since that tends to be the only one people are really interested in in the end

B3/S23 seems to me to be overrated. I would recommend something more like B34e5y7e/S23, B2i3-ck/S02-i3-ck or B3/S237e.

Code: Select all

x = 5, y = 5, rule = B34e5y7e/S23

Code: Select all

x = 7, y = 10, rule = B2i3-ck/S02-i3-ck
3bo$2bobo$bo3bo2$bobobo$2o3b2o3$b2o$b2o!

Code: Select all

x = 3, y = 4, rule = B3/S237e

B37/S2-i34qy is a good choice too as it almost certainly will have the fame of the first non-totalistic rule with a caterpillar spaceship.

[muzik]

But who doesn't want sexy, shiny badges? You can only get most badges from Life.


Although, the idea (if highly unlikely) of a caterpillar in another rule (which, based on the simplicity of the reaction, may have a chance of occurring naturally, although possibly as a puffer) is intriguing...

[drc]

Actually, the reason I only uploaded two hauls of B37/S2-i34qy, is because some soups are actually explosive, but barely. It's rare, though, and caught me by surprise. I can still try to upload some more hauls, I'll just have to monitor them.

[drc]

Okay I have a really interesting rule, B3-r/S2-ckn3-cknqy4-acknqwy5-ejkq6c7-c, but I'm half afraid it'll blow up my PC.

[Saka]

B2e3ai4r5i7e/S23-a4artz is nice. See Soup Search Results in Other CA (SSROCA)
Has various smoky xq16s, tablepulling xq8s, oscs, and smoky yls.

Nice. And much faster to search than B3-r/S2-ckn3-cknqy4-acknqwy5-ejkq6c7-c and (especially) B34e5y7e/S23. I'll let it run for a while.

B3-n4-an/S2-i34-at

I'm not convinced that one isn't explosive. (The others are fine so far, just extremely slow and memory-hungry.)
