Is there any rule which corder engine is a spaceship?
The corder engine doesn't need to travels at 8c/96. It can travel at other speeds and direction as well.

This may not answer the question, but since you did not restrict the rulespace, here is a range-2 isotropic rule where the switch engine evolves to a single-engine diagonal 8c/96 spaceship plus stationary junk:

Code: Select all

x = 6, y = 4, rule = R2,C0,S18-24,26-35,60,B27-35,NW00010001000109090901000900090001090909010001000100

The spaceship:

Code: Select all

x = 30, y = 28, rule = R2,C0,S18-24,26-35,60,B27-35,NW00010001000109090901000900090001090909010001000100

7bo$28bo!
#C [[ THEME MCell ZOOM 8 TRACKLOOP 96 8/96 8/96 ]]
The rule uses a weighted neighbourhood, where the eight inner cells have weights 9 and the eight outer cells have weights 1:

Code: Select all

x = 5, y = 5, rule = B3/S23
bobo$5o$bobo$5o$bobo!
Two conditions (S25 and S60) are toggled away from Life, which has the following rulestring using the same weighted neighbourhood:

Code: Select all

x = 6, y = 4, rule = R2,C0,S18-35,B27-35,NW00010001000109090901000900090001090909010001000100

Requesting a rule like Life, but if an alive cell has a number of alive (I suggest 8 first) neighbours, then it freezes for 1 tick (treated as off) and then returns to the "alive" state.

The corder engine doesn't need to travels at 8c/96. It can travel at other speeds and direction as well.
confocaloid provided a nice example answering this question in the affirmative, but I thought a response restricted to the 2-state INT rules on range-1 Moore neighborhood might be nice to add here. [Note: I don't know if there's an agreed upon name for this rulespace so I'm going to refer to it as INT in this post]

The answer for the INT rulespace partly depends on what you mean by corder engine. The LifeWiki entry for corder (switch) engine shows this pattern:

Code: Select all

x = 6, y = 4, rule = B3/S23
bobo$o$bo2bo$3b3o!
and mentions that after 48 generations the pattern reappears along with some "active junk"
Obviously you don't mean that the pattern behaves exactly the same as it does in Life, because then it wouldn't be a spaceship. However if you want similar behaviour (such that the behaviour matches for say 24 cells, then there is no pattern with that configuration of cells which is a spaceship in the INT rulespace. However, if you're looking for something like a one engine cordership (which might [?] even exist in Life) where the spaceship consists of this pattern plus some active junk then my answer is Maybe.

If you're only interested in a spaceship with this configuration of cells in one phase, then the answer is Yes. Here's an example which matches the behaviour in Life for 12 generations:

14c/124 orthogonal spaceship:

Code: Select all

x = 6, y = 4, rule = B34ce5c6an7e/S23-y4k6ai7e
bobo$o$bo2bo$3b3o!
In general the answer to this type of question (Is there any rule in which this pattern [Insert small pattern with some interesting behaviour] is a [spaceship/oscillator/replicator]) is pretty much always yes. Sometimes the answer is trivially boring (e.g. rule where every pattern is a p1 photon) If you restrict the allowed rulespace and the pattern has sufficient asymmetry then the answer is still nearly always yes, though it won't necessarily be possible to find an example. This is particularly true of the INT rulespace.

One final thought: The INT rulespace is big. Really big. 2^102 big - 2^101 even if you exclude B0. And even when you strike out the large swathes of the rulespace where spaceships can't exist it's still stupendously big [Sorry, I don't have an approximate number for this case but I guarantee that it's bigger than 10^18] We have absolutely no hope of being able to answer most of these type of questions in the affirmative or negative - but sometimes I like to try :)

These posts were just linked from Beehive. However, they are not even close to being a self-contained explanation suitable for LifeWiki readers.

One specific question is: why it is "about 32%", as opposed to "at most 32%"? As I understand it, beehives coloured in the same way could form in other unrelated ways, increasing the observed percentage but not the number of actual honeyfarm sequences.

Another question: are incompletely formed honey farms taken into account (when there are less than four beehives in the final pattern)?

Am I missing some earlier relevant discussion? Is there a more detailed description of the methods somewhere that could be linked instead of this conversation, to explain to readers what is going on?

Beehives that form from honey farms that get perturbed on the opposite side but don't affect all of it still count, as do honey farms where one or more beehives get destroyed after formation. These count as being formed by honey farms.

I have never seen bobo$obobo! form in any other way in the 3 1/2 years I've been here.

Well, then this might be news:

Code: Select all

x = 11, y = 11, rule = B3/S23
b2o$o2bo$o2bo$b2o4b2o$6bo2bo$6bobo$7bo2$8b2o$8bobo$8bo!
If I understand correctly, any occurrence of this would be a false positive. These cases may not be common enough to make a significant difference, though.
My main question is whether there is a more detailed description of the methods somewhere, that could be linked from LifeWiki instead of this conversation.

The 3-state rule is simple: any cell born via B3e is in a "marked" state that doesn't affect evolution. I divided the beehives with the "marked" cells corresponding to a honey farm by the total number of beehives (well, the first few — the object count drops off quickly).

Well, then this might be news:

If I understand correctly, any occurrence of this would be a false positive. These cases may not be common enough to make a significant difference, though.
My main question is whether there is a more detailed description of the methods somewhere, that could be linked from LifeWiki instead of this conversation.
However, this does not affect LifeWithoutHF3:

Code: Select all

I just got this cool new idea to kinda simulate planets and stuff (of course, this rule is like critters, population conserving)
  • 1. Random soups will merge into a ball like object.
  • 2. large objects of pop. 4 or more will have their own gravitational pull.
  • 3. gravitational pull is calculated by:
    • 3a. The cells next to the ballish circle will have the gravitational pull of the amount of cells * 2 in a NC, R8.
    • 3b. The cells that are surrounding gravitated cells will have a gravitational pull of amount of cells * 2 + amount of gravity cells.
    • 3c. All gravity cells will only be counted in calculation if they are closer to the ball of cells.
I actually don't really think this rule is possible
Edit:
Colors are:
Background: 255, 255, 255 (#FFFFFF)
Gravity: 0, (strength of gravity), 0 (#00(strength of gravity in hexadecimal)00)
Cells: 0, 0, 0 (#000000)

Request: Life, but if a cell has no neighbours at all, it freezes (treated as off). If a frozen cell gets surrounded by 8 cells, though, it becomes "alive" again.
