Just noticed there are symmetric diehards in the 16h messless bin now. It doesn't look like anything above 14h has gotten mentioned anywhere (?), so here's a celebratory LifeViewer with a fairly pointless 28G synthesis of one of them ( messless hashsoup/C4_1/l_UgAakbjWsQC41075418 ):

It doesn't look like anything above 14h has gotten mentioned anywhere (?)

They have, actually. The die hard wiki page has shown for a while a 1638-tick diehard found by carybe on 2019-03-29.

Ah, thanks for the pointer.

-- Bother, the original form of the glider-constructible C4_1 lasts only 1629 ticks, and the C4_4 one dies off at 1615. Guess we're stuck with the record-breaking one with an accidental annoyingly swastikish shape in the middle, maybe until a 17h soup comes along.

Interesting. And it's less complex than I thought it would be too.

Interesting. And it's less complex than I thought it would be too.

Not only that, but it's an actual component, not just a synthesis. The last eight gliders can add that ridiculous decoration to just about anything that looks like a tub at one corner. There's a huge amount of clearance:

yl6912 classified as zz_LINEAR from G1...

Here are links to the zz_LINEAR page and the G1 soup. (I went and looked because the soup seemed to be the wrong one at first, but that appears to have been fixed now.)

6912 is an impressively high period for a switch-engine pair from random soup. The initial interaction between the switch engines is a more normal p1152, but interactions farther back multiply that by six.

For 14-bit, just octapole and xp2_4l1148kgzx302. For 15-bit, I don't know about oscillators but there are at most 24 15-bit still lifes missing.
