SporeView v1.0 by Stefan Jeworowski & Stefan Preuss To install this BackSpace-Module copy the SporView.BackModule file to /LocalLibrary/BackSpaceViews or ~/Library/BackSpaceViews This is a simulation of three types of spores. Each Spore has the following life cyclus: - birth - eating - reproduction - death For reproduction the Spores need energy. To get energy the Spores eat each other. There are two different simulation modes: - each Spore kind can eat the other Spore kinds ( r<->g<->b<->r ) - each Spore kind can eat only one other kind of Spores ( r->g->b->r ) If a Spore has enough energy it reproduces itself as often as possible. For the reproduction the Spores consume energy. If a Spore gets out of energy it will die. The simulation looks best on a color display. The intensity of the Spores represents the energy of it. On the bottom of the screen you see a population statistic. You can modify some simulation parameter: - start Population: range from 3 to 200 - max. Population: range from 200 to 50000 - start spread: range from 5 to100 - start cloud: range 5 to 100 The source may look a little bit confusing because the simulation-code is ported from the ATARI TC-Compiler. Feel free to send me suggestions/comments. Have fun, Stefan -- stefan@flens.formel.com ( Stefan Preuss )
