Block fuse: Difference between revisions
Leaving the ambox up while the discussion period is open, per confocaloid's suggestion; the 14 days for "pond fuse" deletion still has a while to run yet, for example. Just the edit short summary "admin's orders" doesn't explain the removal; maybe it referred to https://conwaylife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=172907#p172907 ... but there's nothing there that's labeled as an executive decision (and no edit war yet that would warrant one). |

A block fuse is any fuse that burns through a Blockic constellation.
This list does not include trivial fuses where a spaceship deletes or modifies stationary objects, or engineered fuses consisting of parts that can be trivially rearranged to get different speeds. Spaceship-based fuses are known for c/2 orthogonal, c/3 orthogonal, c/6 orthogonal, and c/7 diagonal.
Known block fuses
Orthogonal
2c/3 bi-block fuse
- Main article: bi-block fuse
This 2c/3 bi-block fuse is a clean fuse which consists of a single pre-beehive used to ignite one row of bi-blocks separated by 2-cell gaps.

4c/7 block fuse
This 4c/7 block fuse is a clean fuse which consists of a single pre-beehive used to ignite two rows of blocks separated by 3-cell gaps, similarly to the 2c/3 bi-block fuse.[1]

p36 c/2 block fuse
This fuse can ignite two rows of blocks spaced 3 cells apart, as in a pufferfish. Despite its common speed, it has an extremely high period. It is used in pufferfish spaceship.[2]

Before that, Ivan Fomichev found a dirtier p36 c/2 fuse.[2]

December 29th, 2014, Nico Brown found additional pufferfish spaceship variants and p36 c/2 block fuse variants.[3]

3c/10 block fuse
This 3c/10 orthogonal block fuse consists of a single pi-heptomino used to ignite two rows of blocks separated by 7-cell gaps. It is used in Pi ship 1.

Diagonal
Reburnable
(34,7)c/156 block fuse
- Main article: (34,7)c/156_Herschel_climber
| It consists of a Herschel crawling though blocks. An Unnamed (34,7)c/156 spaceship has been built using this fuse, and reactions[which?] that delete the beehives along with the excess blocks are known[citation needed] (click above to open LifeViewer) RLE: here Plaintext: here |
31c/240 block fuse
- Main article: 31c/240 Herschel-pair climber
It consists of a Herschel crawling though blocks. Three 31c/240 spaceships are known which use this fuse; shield bug, centipede, and silverfish.
