Hello,

i´m quite new at processing and trying to make boids,
to play around with swarms. (to get out video, pictures,
connect to soundscapes ...)

(like Craig W. Reynolds on http://www.red3d.com/cwr/boids/)

I am yet working on a class "boid", which is using
the 3 step-reynolds-algorithm. (i made one working
program but not yet OOP)


if you know links, or code
or if you are also interested in boids and swarms,
i would be happy about contact.

This is the next AI Library that I want to work on (I know the world needs a Neural Net library, but what for).

You may want to look at Carsten Kolve's thesis:

Post back if you find more resources. (Proof of concept sketches online also help.)

I've got this boids-like thing from a long time ago.

The source is... somewhere.... @_@ I'll post it when I find it.

hi i'm working with steering behaviours based on d. shiffman's 'nature of code'. i need to make some agents seek a linear target. but i can't workout how to direct the vector (from the vector 3d library) towards a line instead of point.  thanks.

A while back I was playing around with flocking stuff - http://www.gamefight.org/boids is, I believe, where I left off.  It doesn't use pure flocking, and it's got a lot of hacks in it (I was playing around with chasing and shooting behavior).  The code may suck, and I haven't touched it in a long time, but if it helps you out, by all means take a look.  Also, it runs too slow in Firefox and too fast in Opera, which is probably a frameRate issue or something, but I don't have time right now to pin it down.  Mouse motion changes the view.
