It works on either side (but not both at once).

Yes, but the immediate reaction does not involve a bakery predecessor; the half-bakery is facing the wrong way for that.bubblegum wrote: December 17th, 2020, 8:00 pmThe core reaction here is a bakery sequence with a bit attached:

What was this for?
Kazyan mentioned a near-miss c/61 spaceship, and now they're trying to support it with slide guns on the discord. As a joke, I suggested using only MWSSes (since HWSSes are a lot harder to synthesize and Scorbie's profile picture is an LWSS)
HWSSes are what we need for the known slide-gun reaction. There's probably an MWSS/LWSS replacement for that reaction -- maybe even one that's a PUSH 2 instead of PUSH 4, so we'd need only half as many slide guns running at twice the speed.
I thought it was worth a try and ended up with a paperclip and a shillelagh with a different collision.However, having lucked out and found something that works already, I'm highly unmotivated to do any searching for new technology like that.
