(a Distributed Behavioral Model simulation)

-------------------------------------------

(https://raw.githubusercontent.com/exigow/flocking-boids/master/screenshots/preview-on-white-background.png)

An implementation of Craig Reynold's Boids program ([papers] (http://www.red3d.com/cwr/boids/)) to simulate the flocking 

behavior of birds in two dimensional space. Each boid steers itself based on rules of __avoidance__, __alignment__, and 

__coherence__.

Fully written in **Scala** language.

Rendered with libGDX

------------

This library was used to show window and render simulation. This can be easily replaced with some other framework.

Optimization

------------

The neighbors detection and vector calculations are build on top of **2d grid spatial partitioning** algorithm. 

Everything works very **fast**.
