I know there are already some mechanisms that will do that, but it's possible that this might fill a niche somewhere.
Ordinarily, that would be useful, but it's outclassed by the fumarole because the fumarole fits in a slightly smaller bounding box and is not destroyed if the traffic light does not form with perfect timing.

That's a nice R→R+H conduit, (The R→R version is known, but I don't think that any version was previously known that also allowed extracting the Herschel.) although there's not much room to add the initial R except by hitting a still life with a glider. I know that a loaf can serve as a one-glider seed for an R-pentomino, but deleting one loaf cleanly without affecting the other one looks challenging. I suppose that someone will eventually find a version that works, though.
MathAndCode wrote: October 17th, 2020, 9:31 pmHas anyone looked for a syringe replacement that takes advantage of the fact that a beehive can serve as a one-glider seed for an R-pentomino? I think that this might be worthwhile for three main reasons:
- An R-pentomino can be converted to a B-heptomino or Herschel relatively quickly and easily compared to a ∏-heptomino because it spawns them naturally.
- Beehives are common, so transparent beehive reactions are feasible, such as in the boojum, the rectifier, and the original century eater in the bistable switch.
- An R-pentomino naturally splits into two active regions early on that don't interact with each other until about 80 generations later, so it should be easy to use one to export a signal and use the other to restore the beehive.

I've seen it at least a couple of times, so it might be worth looking for conduits for.

That is the latest that I have even seen something enter the Herschel sequence. This could be great if we figured out a way to clean it up: We wouldn't need to worry about that pesky block in conduits like Bx222 and Bx125. Unfortunately, this is the best that I've found.

Here's another way to get a Herschel sequence from something besides a B-sequence.
Code: Select all
x = 4, y = 5, rule = B3/S23
bo$2o$o2bo$b3o$2bo!

A slight modification results in a century sequence.
Code: Select all

bo$2o$o2bo$b3o$2bo!
[[ PASTET 25 PASTE o! -2 8 ]]
This makes lumps of muck.
Code: Select all
x = 7, y = 11, rule = B3/S23
6bo$4b3o$3bo$3b2o3$bo$2o$o2bo$b3o$2bo!

Further conduits accepting or forming this region should likely go
here.
Edit: The object actually enters the Herschel sequence earlier, but its first block is suppressed.

I can only speak for my own experience, which might be a fluke, but I have seen an object that forms three boats in that way several times while searching for conduits.

Also unfortunately, the blocks are necessary because a permanent fishhook would interfere with a future iteration of the conduit. This region does seem worth investigating more, though. If you see any way to make it from an active region already used in conduits, please post it
here. I've seen it at least twice in the past, but I wasn't keeping track of it then.
