# Atlas

* The world is composed of a grid of cells.

* Each cell has food and water.

* Each cell has an elevation.

A organism prefers to live in a biome based on their genes. Occupying cells within a organism's preferred biome consumes the least amount of energy.

For example, a desert dweller prefers not to exist within a forest biome.

## How the game works

### Spawning

A player can join a game at any time. When a player connects a number of

organisms are randomly spawned into the world for them.

### Movement

A organism can move from their current cell to a neighbouring cell. Movement consumes food and water.

It costs a organism more health to move to a cell of higher elevation. For example: (toElevation / fromElevation) + 1.

### Food & Water

Each organism must consume food & water in order to survive. As time passes in the

world a organism becomes hungry and/or thirsty and must seek out food & water. The

rate at which a organism must eat or drink is dependent on a organism's genes.

### Attacking

### Genes

* PreferredTemperature: the preferred temperature for a organism.

* PreferredMoisture: the preferred moisure for a organism.

* PreferredElevation: the preferred elevation for a organism.

* EatFrequency: how often a organism needs to eat.

* DrinkFrequency: how often a organism needs to drink.

* ReproduceFrequency: how often a organism can reproduce.

## Client

# Messages

* When the client connects a number of organisms are spawned.

* The client requests the world view.

* The server responds to the client with a world view.

* The server processes the intention.
