Movostill 3 (B2e3aceij5-ijr/S23-a4)

[83bismuth38]

interesting fuse that emits 3c/6s:

Code: Select all

x = 58, y = 5, rule = B2e3aceij5-ijr/S23-a4

@83bismuth38 already found, as a part of my growing rake.

...Well this is a breakthrough EDIT: this reflector gives a different colour than the other reflectors.:

Code: Select all

x = 10, y = 5, rule = B2e3aceij5-ijr/S23-a4
7b2o$8bo$2o3b2ob2o$bo4bobo$2o3b2ob2o!

That drastically reduces the reflector and shifter. As for the duplicator, I haven't found anything like this.

Also. what about naming it a portmanteau of pi and Z? Because in the phase shown above it looks like a Z with a pi fused to it. Piz? Pyzee? Zeepee?

[BlinkerSpawn]

Adding a Z drops the repeat time three ticks to 30, the minimum for this particular reaction:

Code: Select all

x = 33, y = 24, rule = B2e3aceij5-ijr/S23-a4
3b3o$o4bo$6o$2bo6$12b3o$9bo4bo$9b6o8b2o$11bo12bo$23b2ob2o$24bobo$23b2o
b2o$26bo$25b2o4b2o$31bo$30b2o2$18b2o$16bo2bo$16b2o!

Or we can raise the repeat time back to the original 33 and get another signal out of it in the process:

Code: Select all

x = 42, y = 34, rule = B2e3aceij5-ijr/S23-a4

Also. what about naming [the 3c/10d] a portmanteau of pi and Z? Because in the phase shown above it looks like a Z with a pi fused to it. Piz? Pyzee? Zeepee?

I think I like "pyzee" best. It's catchy.

[Majestas32]

The 3c/10d will be best named Moose since it looks like moving moose antlers in lifeviewer

[dani]

The 3c/10d will be best named Moose since it looks like moving moose antlers in lifeviewer

There's already a still life called Moose antlers, so that would be a bit confusing.

I do not know what to call the 3c/10 diagonal, the best name I could think of that incorporates the Pi/Z angle would be to call it the zipper, and it does kind of, well, 'zip' across the board at a very fast speed (being halfway between c/4 and c/3).

Code: Select all

rle

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong in those measurements.

For starters, there are 15 ships listed in your rle, but the first 7 are a flip of the last 7, so there are only 8 2-B ships.
Moreover, there are 16 ways for a B to connect to the outside of a B, in a continuous range between these two offsets:

Code: Select all

x = 17, y = 14, rule = B2e3aceij5-ijr/S23-a4
2b2o9b2o$3bo10bo$4bo10bo$2b2o9b2o2$2b2o9b2o$4bo10bo$3bo10bo$2b2o9b2o2$
2o13b2o$b2o13bo$bo12b3o$2o12b2o!

And calculating the number of ships with N B's can proceed as follows:
There are N-1 ways to divide N-2 external B's between the two sides: {N-2,0}, {N-3,1}, ..., {0,N-2}
Multiply this by 16^(N-2) sets of offsets between B's and 8 different 2-B centers to get ((N-1)*16^N)/32 ships with N B's.
A table for N from 2 to 9:

There are actually a few more ways to create c/4 ships once N ≥ 3 by putting a ship on the inside, so annoying corrections have to be introduced. (1+ extra ship when N = 3, 40+ ships for N = 4)

Code: Select all

EDIT: p26 gun based on danny's new p13 and BlinkerSpawn's B/C-G:

Code: Select all

x = 20, y = 24, rule = B2e3aceij5-ijr/S23-a4

Can this catalyst be advanced further into something useful (aside from an ANDNOT gate)?

Code: Select all

x = 10, y = 6, rule = B2e3aceij5-ijr/S23-a4

The phase 2 mod 4 combination might be useful:

Code: Select all

x = 15, y = 14, rule = B2e3aceij5-ijr/S23-a4
