Wickstretcher And The Parasites (B01356/S012345)

[Drelectron8]

Wickstretcher And The Parasites
Hey guys, I found another rule (randomly!) that I also find interesting. I call it Wickstretcher And The Parasites. It is an explosive rule that has, obviously, Wickstrechers of different sorts. As usual, if you find something interesting in this rule, please note it down in this topic and post it. Thank you for understanding!

This rule is also self-complementary and can sustain anti-patterns in full blocks.

Wickstretchers
The most common Wickstretcher is this:

Code: Select all

x = 3, y = 4, rule = B01356/S012345
obo$obo$3o$3o!

The second most common Wickstrecher:

Code: Select all

x = 5, y = 6, rule = B01356/S012345
obo$obo$ob3o$2b3o$2b3o$2b3o!

And lastly, the third most common Wickstrecher.

Code: Select all

x = 5, y = 7, rule = B01356/S012345
bobo$bobo$b3o$b4o$5o$2o2bo$5o!

Also another one.

Code: Select all

x = 11, y = 27, rule = B01356/S012345
4bobo$4bobo$4bobo$2b7o$b3o3b3o$11o$2ob5ob2o$ob7obo$11o$11o$11o$11o$11o
$11o$11o$11o$11o$11o$11o$11o$11o$11o$11o$11o$11o$11o$11o!

Another one, again.

Code: Select all

x = 7, y = 12, rule = B01356/S012345
2bobo$2bobo$3obobo$5obo$ob5o$5obo$7o$7o$7o$7o$7o$7o!

And another.

Code: Select all

x = 6, y = 8, rule = B01356/S012345
2bobo$2bobo$3obo$5o$ob4o$6o$6o$6o!

Another big Wickstretcher.

Code: Select all

x = 11, y = 13, rule = B01356/S012345
2bobobobo$2bobobobo$3obobob3o$5ob5o$ob7obo$5ob5o$11o$11o$11o$11o$11o$
11o$11o!

Spaceships
There are a few spaceships that I found naturally. These include:
A c/2 spaceship

Code: Select all

x = 5, y = 3, rule = B01356/S012345
obobo$obobo$o3bo!

This adjustable spaceship (c3/6)

Code: Select all

x = 20, y = 28, rule = B01356/S012345
17b3o$5b6o$4b5ob10o$3b15o$4b4ob9o$5b5o6$17b3o$4b6o$3b5ob11o$2b16o$3b4o
b10o$4b5o6$17b3o$2b7o$b6ob12o$18o$b5ob11o$2b6o!

Whoops! Looks like I found another one. (c4/8)

Code: Select all

x = 40, y = 14, rule = B01356/S012345
obo14bobo13bobo$obo14bobo13bobo$ob3o12bob3o11bob3o$2b3o14b3o13b3o$2b3o

Another one that I found randomly!

Code: Select all

x = 9, y = 7, rule = B01356/S012345
3bobo$3bobo$b3ob3o$b2o3b2o$bobobobo$bobobobo$3bobo!

And another adjustable spaceship:

Code: Select all

x = 25, y = 11, rule = B01356/S012345
21bobo$11bobo7bobo$bobo7bobo7b3o$bobo7b3o7b3o$b3o7b3o7b3o$2ob2o5b2ob2o
5b2ob2o$obobo5bobobo5bobobo$5o5b5o5b5o$5o5b5o5b5o$obobo5bobobo5bobobo
$o3bo5bo3bo5bo3bo!

These are some of the ones that I found. There are also parasites which "latch" on to the Wickstretchers. I will not list them down, but like the spaceship above, you can use them as advantages to create spaceships.
Edit:Okay you know what nevermind, I am just going to give you examples.
Parasites
This is the most common parasite which is latching on the third most common Wickstretchter.

Code: Select all

x = 6, y = 39, rule = B01356/S012345
bobo$bobo$b3o$b4o$5o$2o2bo$5o$5o$5o$5o$5o$5o$5o$5o$5o$5o$5o$5o$5o$5o$
5o$5o$5o$5o$3ob2o$6o$6o$6o$6o$6o$6o$6o$6o$6o$6o$6o$6o$6o$6o!

This is another one where if it goes close enough, it becomes the third most common Wickstretchter. Note that this is the same parasite that makes the adjustable ship well, adjustable.

Code: Select all

x = 5, y = 47, rule = B01356/S012345

Note: Is it me, or is this rule getting weirder? When I load in a pattern that I notice from this rule, it tends to be different. Am I the only person experiencing this?

It's p14, or p7 if corresponds to R2 non-strobing INT rule.

UPDATE: I have found another variant of signal (I think p4?) and another oscillator.

Parasites that add another cell are just parasites.

Parasites that remove another cell are anti-parasites.

Similar signals of parasites will cancel each other out.

However, when opposite parasites meet, there are only two possibilities of them either becoming an anti-parasite or a parasite.

Note: I can't make it so that a single signal will get eaten, so can anyone find something like that to stop the signal?

ANOTHER EDIT: Signals can theoretically climb walls; however, its counterpart will take over. Below is an example of this reaction. The anti-parasite when climbed up a wall, will become a positive one.

I also found a remarkably close signal eater. Only if it could stay still...
