This programmable gun uses a signal loop (more compact than a glider loop):
Code: Select all
x = 28, y = 11, rule = 345/2/4
14.A$13.3A6.A$14.A6.3A$22.A$26.A$25.3A$26.A$3.CBA9.CBA$.A2.A2.A2.A2.A
2.A2.A2.A$24A$.A2.A2.A2.A2.A2.A2.A2.A!
The memory loop is undisturbed as gliders are created from the signals as they pass by.
Minimum spacing for the signals is p12 as shown.
A slight variant produces two gliders at a time:
Code: Select all
x = 28, y = 11, rule = 345/2/4
15.A$14.3A5.A$15.A5.3A$22.A$26.A$25.3A$26.A$3.CBA9.CBA$.A2.A2.A2.A2.A
2.A2.A2.A$24A$.A2.A2.A2.A2.A2.A2.A2.A!
Here signals are extracted instead of gliders, making a true signal splitter:
Code: Select all
x = 34, y = 17, rule = 345/2/4
15.A$14.3A15.A$15.A15.3A$15.A16.A$14.2A16.A$15.A16.2A$15.A16.A$14.3A

2.A2.A2.A2.A2.A2.A$24A$.A2.A2.A2.A2.A2.A2.A2.A!
Without the loop, convert a signal to/from a glider with more variants:
Code: Select all
x = 62, y = 16, rule = 345/2/4
56.A$55.3A$48.A7.A$47.3A6.A$15.A32.A6.3A$14.3A39.A$15.A6.A37.A$15.A5.

Found by accident, there is probably a better way, better than 12 gliders.
The four-glider synthesis does not require a "tight salvo" like the three-glider synthesis does.

A backrake is created and destroyed, but luckily the original pattern is restored, for repeated use.
A stream of three gliders is launched on the same track as the single glider input in this case. To increase the number of gliders by n, move the southernmost plus further south by 12n cells. Ghosted pluses show positions for a salvo of two or four, but any finite number of gliders is possible. Even the positions for zero and one will work, though zero is just an eater and one is a simple delay. The 90 degree reflector here is one of my favorite Star Wars 90 degree stable reflectors (and new to this forum, I think) although recovery time is slow. Of course, the three reflectors are not really necessary, unless you want the output on the same track as the input.

Chaining it more than once changes its period to 20.

It's relatively compact and is capable of emerging from soup. I found it without the bottom rake that deletes some stray spaceships, but that is also known to arise naturally.
Also, I noticed that if you take a random pattern and run it for a while, there are a lot of breeders that just show up, so if I'm not the only one who cares, we can expect an inundation of similar patterns.
EDIT #1:
Here's another one that given infinite time will fill 1/2 of the space (the previous one fills 1/4 of the space) at a lower density:

For some breeders it is simpler to calculate the filled area than others; in particular, isosceles, right, and equilateral triangles are easy, but scalene triangles are hard, and other polygons are much harder. [/color]

Both your density calculations are incorrect. The first breeder fills half the plane (everything above the center line) with a density of 3/16. The second fills the entire plane, with density 1/32.
For some breeders it is simpler to calculate the filled area than others; in particular, isosceles, right, and equilateral triangles are easy, but scalene triangles are hard, and other polygons are much harder.
The portion of the plane filled is any area that will eventually be encompassed. For most breeders, this is everything beyond a certain line (which is ALWAYS half the plane). If there are more than two boundary lines, the filled area will be reduced accordingly.
For triangles with two boundary lines, the filled portion of the plane is the angle between them/(2 Pi).

OK, thanks. I guess I wasn't thinking when I made those calculations, and thanks for correcting them.

For a polygon with vertices {(x1,y1),(x2,y2), ... ,(xn,yn)}, you can use this formula:
Area = ((x1y2 - x2y1) + (x2y3 - x3y2) + ... + (xny1 - x1yn))/2.
Keen observers will notice that for n = 3, this reduces to the determinant formula for calculating the area of a triangle.

The backrake makes use of a moving wall.
The moving wall is great for cleanup tasks when making large spaceships or rakes.
The following rake uses a moving wall that manages to repair itself:
