Approxiflock

This is a 2D boid simulator that uses approximation to allow real time rendering of fairly large flocks. 🕊

cargo run --release -- -c example-config.toml

Aims:

• Fast, CPU based simulation.
• Support as many boids as possible.
• Render at 60fps.

This is achieved by using:

• Approximate "neighbour grid" data structure.
• Lookup table based FOV culling
• Direct use of OpenGL for rendering.

Configuring

The simulation parameters can be set via a toml configuration file.

See example-config.toml for an explination of the different parameters.
