Quelea - agent-based design for Grasshopper

Agent-Based Design for Grasshopper
+ A new paradigm for 3D modeling utilizing agents.
+ Assign forces and behaviors to systems of agents to create interactions.
+ Utilize any data to drive the system.
+ Easily debug your system by displaying individual force vectors.
+ High performance, parallel algorithms, spatial data-structures.
+ Write your own custom forces, no coding required.
+ Open source framework for others to build custom behaviors.
+ Boid forces: Cohese, Separate, Align, & View.
+ Contain Agents within Brep, Box, Surface, and Polysurface environments.
+ Forces: Path Follow, Attract, Contain, Surface Flow, Seek, Arrive, Avoid Obstacle, Avoid Unaligned Collision, Sense Image, Sense Point, & more to come.
+ Behaviors: Bounce Contain, Kill Contain, Initial Velocity, Eat, Set Velocity, & more to come.

Future work:

+ Behaviors to drive simulations of people and vehicles.

+ Temporal inputs can change the actions of the system over time.

If you find any bugs or have any feature requests please post them on the GitHub Issue Tracker which will allow everyone to see which bugs are open or closed and allows me to update you when it is fixed.

This is an open source project so if you need custom defined forces or behaviors for your project reach out to me about becoming a committer.

To get started check out this video tutorial on how to set up a basic particle scene. Follow along with this example script.

Learn how to set up a flocking simulation with agents in this video tutorial and example file.

To learn more about the polymorphic type system in the latest release of Quelea see this video explanation.

    Hi I'am architecture student of KMITL form Thailand.I wanna to write script about phototaxis of algae to their food ex. I have start point(Emiter) and agent will move to Food point and division itself.How to write the script? Thank you

    Can anyone please help me solve why the flow on surface definition that I followed according to the tutorial doesn't seem to be doing the water simulations correctly on my hypar model? 

    Will be gratefully appreciated!

    Hi Alex, I downloaded some examples on Github, but I think these examples were only for Agent not the most updated Quelea version (beta 0.2).  I tried to download some examples on the following   

    http://quelea.alexjfischer.com/example-scripts/

    But I was report fatal error.  Are there any examples for most updated Quelea version (beta 0.2)?
