tempest (0345/2/6)
Posted: September 11th, 2020, 8:13 pm
hi hi
so i decided to finally start searching for multi-state rules and i came across this simple rulestring, 0345/2/6
"wow that's cool"
- no one
i called it tempest because 1) the spaceships look like violent gusts of wind to my peanut-sized brain, and 2) tempest is an underrated word and is used not nearly as much as it should
play around in here
-------------------------------------------------------------
oscillators
the only interesting oscillator that comes to mind is this extendable p84 "lattice"
but there's also this incredibly common p12 oscillator (call it the waterwheel for convenience) that can also be extended into a signal transmitter
-------------------------------------------------------------
guns go pewpew
1. a p20 proton gun made from a sort of p20 that shoots two at a time
2. the "double" p20 proton gun
3. a double-barreled p12 that resembles a wave machine
4. proton guns that are p6, p12 and p19 respectively
5. a double-barreled p60 made from the aforementioned p12 guns
6. a double-barreled p57 made from the aforementioned p19 guns, that emits c/2 spaceships, which are substantially slow compared to all the other spaceships in this rule. might as well call it the "snail"
7. if we then combine two p57 snail guns (along with eaters on each side), we get this delightful p171 that emits 2c/3 "phoenix". the phoenix is a lot faster than the snail, yet far from reaching the proton's speed
ok that's enough

blinkerer and some rad spaceships
if any of you are hardcore veterans to the forums (i'm talking 2012 or earlier), or you're just someone who reads every single thread on this site for entertainment, you're likely to know who the user "blinkerer" was. his last post was on october of 2012, where he discovered some neat spaceships, along with some other patterns as well in the Transers II rule. but then i noticed that Transers II (along with Transers I and III) was incredibly similar to Tempest (0345/26/6 compared to 0345/2/6)
because of their similarities, a few of blinkerer's discoveries are actually compatiable here
here's a siderake and two other spaceships (i'll just call them the c/10 chicken and the c/36 tarantula)
an extender that can also become a spaceship
a quadruple barreled snail gun
and finally, a sawtooth for the rule
-------------------------------------------------------------
reflector and stuff to do
to finally end this stupidly long post, here's a simple 90 degree proton reflector, that can be reused, although it changes position
- find some more interesting oscillators
- perhaps a gun that combines p171 guns?
- make a spaceship out of the extender
- logic gates?
- take a nap
