Maybe some fun, maybe not
« on: April 12, 2021, 06:59:11 am »
I was inspired today to write this silly simulation when I watched Fellippe's pandemic simulation video. It is not about the pandemic. It is about something different. It is not really a true simulation. It is a silly simulation. And hopefully it may also be fun. Some silly fun!

Sixty frames = one simulated year.

Changed the mechanics a bit. Added more color information.
Green - too young
Grey - too old
Pink - female
Blue - male
Solid Pink - take a guess

Things that affect the outcome.
Population density - the larger the starting population the more likely the simulation will sustain
Size of the circles - the larger they are the more plentiful will be the collisions
CONST min - The lower the more fruitful the society will be
CONST maxm - The higher "
CONST maxf - The higher "

The goal is to achieve simulation sustainability without too explosive growth and with not too many failures.

DISCLAIMER ABOUT THE CURRENT SETTINGS
It is just a numbers game. The settings are restricted to what is commonly possible. They are not 100% realistic. It is not meant to be politically correct. So just consider these settings being for a primitive society without written laws or moral standards.

The morally correct may want to increase the circle size and increase the minimum age! Etc.

That's an interesting take on population growth and decline.

Maybe the solid pink circle should change to solid pink filled ellipses for a short time then be accompanied by smaller green circles. Then like all the others turn gray.
