I guess synthesizing a p2 space ship is still way out of scope. But is it possible to generate at least a chain of the smallest parts?

x = 81, y = 4, rule = B3/S23

I don't know...

In view of the recent progress in glider synthesis of spaceships it might be time to revive this thread!


Is it doable now with the technology and experinece you experts have gained since?
