Wildfire Simulation
-------------------
Currently the simulation has the following features:
- Trees drawn in single draw call with one VBO of gl triangles.
- Can vary how long trees burn, how likely nearby trees are to
catch fire, how many trees there are, how much height affects
fire movement.
- Trees start burning, burn from a low state up to a hot state,
then down unil they die out. Trees around have a higher
chance of catching on fire when the tree is burning hotter.
- Trees have a height between 0.0 and 1.0, fire has a higher
chance of moving uphill.
- I have several research papers I read on forest fire
simulations, but a lot of their equations were fairly abstract,
but I do plan to implement some of that information and get
more realistic fire.
What I plan to do:
- Add wind.
- Maybe add trees growing back and have a sort of life cycle sim.
- Maybe improve tree appearance.
