Revision as of 18:56, 15 December 2023 by Dvgrn(talk | contribs)(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.
This 4c/7 block fuse is a cleanfuse 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]
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]

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.
It consists of a Herschel crawling though blocks. An unnamed (34,7)c/156 caterpillar 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:herePlaintext:here
