Well now we have an S-to-A and S-to-T, which means that all we really need is an X-to-S.
That being said, I'm not sure if any of the applicable scripts are applicable to rules other than Life...

Well, it's not really a conduit though since the block doesn't recover...

Neat. I can confirm no ships found at that width with modified gfind either. I presume that's a result from modified zfind and that you are running the width 12 search now? I estimate it would take about a day to run the corresponding search in modified gfind which is presumably a lot longer than modified zfind.

Here are a few c/7 partials I found long ago but didn't get around to posting:

The gutter symmetry partial is actually from a width 17 search, and I suspect width 19 is promising. Should be well within reach of modified zfind.

I actually found a c/8 partial that did the same thing, but I lost it.

No ships at w6 (width 12) either. I don't plan on running w7 just yet because it would take an egregiously long time. I'm currently running p8 k1 w8 v; I didn't run the w7 equivalent, so I don't know about that. I believe I have ruled out all w6 ships in all settings with a period of 10 or less except 2c/10 (All of my searches there just turned up T's), in addition to p11 k5 and p11 k4. I think it's actually reasonably likely that an odd-symmetric 5c/11 ship exists, just probably at w11 or 12 or so. I started a p11 k5 w9 u search a bit ago, but it tried to crash my computer so I stopped it.

By the way, sorry about the inverted dimensions on the RLE. I don't have access to Golly, so I'm using a python script with a CA simulator I wrote myself to generate the RLE and there are a few bugs.

I just finished p8 k1 w8 v; no ships. The longest partial was this one:

The known T-making reactions fail almost immediately, and the glider-making reactions 1/5th of the way through a cycle.
The explanation for the 1/5th is left as an exercise for the reader.

@Hdjensofjfnen, pretty much everything you have just posted is either known or doesn't actually work. Please check the rest of this topic before posting anything else here, and make sure your gliders can come from infinity before posting syntheses.
