> There has been no true replicator found yet in Life as far as I know... Actually more than one true replicator has been constructed. The 0E0P metacell https://conwaylife.com/wiki/0E0P_metacell https://conwaylife.com/wiki/0E0P_metacell can be programmed to self-replicate in any number of ways, but it's so big that it's very hard to simulate it through a full cycle. By contrast, Pavel Grankovskiy's "DOGun SaGaQR" https://conwaylife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?&p=138191#p138191 https://conwaylife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?&p=138191#p13819... only has one pattern of replication, but it's much simpler than the 0E0P metacell and can easily be run through many cycles in Golly.
