i think i'll start searching for honeybomb hassler partials now
edit: actually here's a smaller version of the p24 TL-phi hassler partial
Code: Select all
x = 8, y = 10, rule = B2i3/S23-c
2o$2o3$4bo2bo$3b3obo3$2o$2o!
world's most plausible p35 partial
(you have to remove the top traffic light sequence of the line of six spark before it interacts)
Code: Select all
x = 7, y = 5, rule = B2i3/S23-c
o2bo2bo$o2bo2bo$2bobo$3bo$3bo!
HF sequence to block; can catalyze at three different points; may or may not be fruitful

edit 2: the normal pentadecathlon doesn't work, but if you remove its V-sparks in time using, e.g., this period doubling catalyst, you can make a p30:
Code: Select all
x = 11, y = 32, rule = B2i3/S23-c

partial p30 pentadecathlon shuttle, can't find a good approach:
Code: Select all
x = 3, y = 12, rule = B2i3/S23-c
obo2$3o3$3o2$obo$bo2$bo$bo!
the pentadecathlon can also of course be used as a motif to complete (albeit dimerize) some p15 partials.
p30 agar:
