Script challenges

Post by Hdjensofjfnen »

A thread where you can challenge the processing power of your computer to synthesize constellations. Someone begins by posting a constellation that they know an n-glider recipe for, and having others figure out what the recipe is.

To start, you are looking for a five-glider synthesis (or fewer!) of the following:

Code: Select all

x = 4, y = 12, rule = B3/S23

I’m not using a computer right now, so I’ll be waiting. Unless I can already post a puzzle, but there already is one, so I don’t think so.
