This is a rule with 5 elementary diagonal spaceships:

Code: Select all

x = 24, y = 11, rule = B2k3aijn4ak5y6k/S2ae3ajnr4aiw
23bo$bo5bo6b2o5bo$o5bo2bo3bo2bo3bo$3o3b3o4b3o4b3o4$bo$obo$o2bo$3o!
This functions as both an eater and rock:

Code: Select all

x = 12, y = 12, rule = B2k3aijn4ak5y6k/S2ae3ajnr4aiw

Suggested names: Left-to-right: Glider (As in GoL), glider with short tail, fat glider, glider with tail, and on the bottom: Fast glider or loaf glider.

EDIT: Loaf glider looks like a jellyfish in Golly, so you can also call it that.

Weird useless reaction:

Code: Select all

x = 11, y = 7, rule = B2k3aijn4ak5y6k/S2ae3ajnr4aiw

of flowers, to jump universes to one of springtime in
a land of former winter, where no invisible walls stood,
or could stand for more than a few hours at most...

My naming scheme is glider, glider+, bun, glider++, and W.
The only particularly interesting 2-glider collisions are ones that produce Ws:

Code: Select all

x = 87, y = 7, rule = B2k3aijn4ak5y6k/S2ae3ajnr4aiw
24bo$5bo17bo$4bo18b3o$o3b3o13bo19bo19bo4bo14bo$b2o18b2o18b2o18b2ob2o
15b2ob2o$2o18b2o18b2o2b3o13b2o2bobo13b2o2bobo$46bo37bo!
Glider and W create glider+:

Code: Select all

x = 4, y = 9, rule = B2k3aijn4ak5y6k/S2ae3ajnr4aiw
bo$obo$o2bo$3o3$o$b2o$2o!
Makes half of A for Awesome's reaction, but it's not combinable:

Code: Select all

x = 7, y = 5, rule = B2k3aijn4ak5y6k/S2ae3ajnr4aiw
2bo$obo$b2ob2o$5b2o$6bo!
LifeWiki: Like Wikipedia but with more spaceships. [citation needed]

The "W" (c/3 diagonal) can be combined and extended to form infinitely different 2c/6 diagonal ships:

Code: Select all

x = 85, y = 45, rule = B2k3aijn4ak5y6k/S2ae3ajnr4aiw

Your post is a necropost, and so is mine.
I want to revive this thread.
You have no specific reason to necropost.
