I have the feeling I'm probably forgetting some obvious additional class of seed patterns, but at the moment I can't seem to think of anything else to add to the list.

Latest revision as of 01:14, 21 August 2020
As of August 12, 2020, I think this is still the full list of all of the objects for which 1G seeds have ever been constructed:
- star, eater2 variant, and almost p256 oscillator from Golly's Patterns/Life/Syntheses/blockic-and-blockish-seeds.rle, from way back
- LWSS, MWSS, and HWSS (knightlife and others)
- Mitchell Riley's Cordership breeder pattern, Golly's Patterns/Life/Breeders/switch-engine-breeder-MR.rle
- loafer
- 3-engine Cordership
- 2-engine Cordership
- Gosper glider gun
- 58P5H1V1
- space rake
- space backrake
- crab
- crab-based wickstretcher
- double wickstretcher
This excludes various seed constellations that produce gliders or glider salvos -- otherwise unlistably many one-time turners would technically count. An example would be the seed constellation in the original adjustable volatility-1 oscillator from November 2018. There might also be a random "meteor shower" seed somewhere or other, maybe for cleaning up a Silver reflector. (?)
