B-fuse

By encasing a B heptomino into 3 blocks, I managed to make a B-fuse!
It is perfectly clean, exactly like the pi-fuse, it's model.

Code: Select all

#CXRLE Pos=95,-249
x = 13, y = 266, rule = B3/S23
2o$2o6$2o9b2o$2o9b2o8$2o$2o6$2o9b2o$2o9b2o8$2o$2o6$2o9b2o$2o9b2o8$2o$

2o8$2o$2o6$2o4bo4b2o$2o3b3o3b2o$5bob2o!
The B reappears every 35 generations, moved up 17 cells for a total of (17/35)c. It means that it is right under the (1/2)c speed of the XWSS-class ships, and therefore can have a wickstretcher.
Here's some WIP:

Code: Select all

#CXRLE Pos=-5,-42
x = 16, y = 48, rule = B3/S23
2o$2o6$2o9b2o$2o9b2o8$2o$2o6$2o9b2o$2o9b2o3$11b2o$11b2o4$2o9b2o$2o10bo
$12bob2o$11b2ob2o6$10b2o$10b2o3$6bo$2o3b3o2b2o$2o2b2obo2b2o!
It may not be new, but I can't find it anywhere.

I'll now try to make a B-fuse puffer, do you know any p37 rakes?

Last time I checked, 37 was prime, so a p37 rake would need a speed of kc/37, where k is between 1 and 18. Such long-period spaceships are outside the realms of searchability.

But only if you mean true p37, or?

To add to that, even if you've got spaceships, you'd still need to figure out how to combine said ships into a rake. Some ships may have no accessible sparks, and would thus be useless. I'm already singing ale-ola-ole to this idea - it just doesn't make the cut. Better to focus on the (13,1)c/31 spaceship construction plans.

After some thinking, I realized I don't need a p37 rake but a p 36 one. It may be easier to make.
However, I'll need both a rake and a backrake. I may also use a modified line puffer, like the pi-fuse puffer.
EDIT: after even more thinking, I realized I don't even need a backrake
Re-EDIT: But I would have been stuck on how to make a block by colliding a glider with a c/2 ship while returning the ship without this completely random discovery

Code: Select all

#CXRLE Pos=-11,-5
x = 18, y = 14, rule = B3/S23

The lightest reaction of that kind is

x = 5, y = 12, rule = B3/S23

Super nice.
I discovered that a p36 biblock-laying puffer would also do the trick, as it can be converted into a stream of gliders.
Or maybe a rake with filtered gliders...

Meh, I just discovered that I was wrong...
I need a p34 rake, not a P36.
Sorry :oops:
EDIT: According to game of life status, p34 does'nt exist, but p68 does. Then it's fine.
By the way, does anyone knw this rake?

the p68 rake is contained in Jason Summers c/2 rake collection

And where can I find the collection?

HURRAY!
I managed to find the jslife. Using the P68 rake, I built the entire puffer!

It may be very, very barely optimized, but here's the B-fuse puffer.
P.S. I love how the B is a bit slower than the puffer
Thanks for all!

EDIT: Is this pattern a "growing ship"?

EDIT: Is this pattern a "growing ship"?
Yes, exactly. Nice work! There are a lot of possible speeds for the back end of a growing B-fuse spaceship, but I think an asymmetric 16c/35 back end is new. Seems like B's are more often lined up in mirror-symmetric pairs to keep them traveling straight. Here are a couple of random samples by Stephen Silver, back in 2000:

The funny part may be that the reaction was found by entire luck...
The 2 first blocks were originally closer, but I made them farther... because of a misclick. Understanding this had potency I tried some ways to place a 3rd block, and suddenly...

This new B-fuse is glide symmetric. It is also faster than the V1, being c/2.
The "B-fuse extensible spaceship" is also way smaller than the previous.
by the way, here's a really, REALLLY dirty B-fuse.

As the escaping gliders show, this fuse is sightly under c/4.

Fact: This fuse is glide-symmetric, but the mess it creates isn't.

EDIT: Noticing the "B-fuseship" creates spark, I created a B-fuseship engine puffer

Code: Select all

x = 35, y = 60, rule = B3/S23
