# Cellular Automaton Physics Project

# DISLAIMER: I'M CURRENTLY REWRITING THIS PROJECT IN RUST, THE C++ VERSION WON'T GET ANY MORE SUPPORT. YOU CAN CHECK OUT THE RUST DEVELOPMENT BRANCH OVER [HERE](https://github.com/Blayung/ca-physics/tree/rust-dev).

## Features

* Simple 2d physics

    * Gases physics

    * Liquid physics

    * Powders physics

* Particles: stone, wood, water, oil, sand, gunpowder, fire, lava, steam, smoke, flammable gas

* Time control, custom grid and particle sizes.

## Controls

**Scroll ->** Choose a particle  

**LMB ->** Place a particle  

**RMB ->** Remove a particle  

**R ->** Reset the grid  

**Q/Escape ->** Quit  

**Left/Right arrow ->** Change speed  

## Compiling (assuming you're on linux)

Clone the repo:  

`git clone https://github.com/Blayung/ca-physics.git`  

`cd ca-physics`  

Install sdl2 and sdl2 ttf (I use pacman for example):  

`sudo pacman -S sdl2`  

`sudo pacman -S sdl2_ttf`  

Compile the program:  

`g++ main.cpp -lSDL2 -lSDL2_ttf`  

Run it:  

`./a.out`
