Boids is a simple simulation project dedicated to showcasing the flocking algorithm (known as Boids) in a fun and accessible format, complete with sliders, buttons and dropdowns to allow maximum customization.
- Customizable simulation weights
- Handles up to 750 boids simultaneously on modern systems!
- Smoothly animated and simple customization menu
- Clean and informative about menu
- Boid tracking with field of view visuals (Space)
- Performance statistics (CTRL+H, CTRL+G)
Boids attempt to cohesively move together by each individually doing the same thing: move towards the center of the flock, align to the average heading of the flock, and keep a certain distance from eachother.
To download a release, check the Releases section and download the appropriate build. Boids is built on the Unity Engine, and thus should be fully compatible across Windows, Mac & Linux without trouble.
Note: Boids is extremely early in it's development and only has a fraction of the features I want it to have. Current releases are most definitely not even close to what I want Boids to look like. Additionally, I'm very inexperienced with Unity, and even worse with providing Builds to users. If a Build doesn't function, you'll have better luck loading the project and building yourself, likely.
