Code Adventure: Boids

Start Time: Feb 28, 2021 Status: In Progress Type: Unity

Introduction

Instead of controlling the interactions of an entire flock, however, the Boids simulation only specifies the behavior of each individual bird. With only a few simple rules, the program manages to generate a result that is complex and realistic enough to be used as a framework for computer graphics applications such as computer generated behavioral animation in motion picture films.

Thee Boids Algorithm rules

• Separation

  Each bird attempts to maintain a reasonable amount of distance between itself and any nearby birds, to prevent overcrowding.

• Alignment

  Birds try to change their position so that it corresponds with the average alignment of other nearby birds.

• Cohesion

  Every bird attempts to move towards the average position of other nearby birds.

GamePlay

Although this is made by Unity is isn't really a game but an algorithm visualization. You can twist the weight of each rule apply to fish and the fish count.
