2. People Agents

This second step illustrates how to obtain a random point inside a geometry. We will also define some moving agent called people.

Formulation

• Define a new species of agents: the people agents. The people agents have a point for geometry and are represented by a yellow circle of radius 10m.
• At initialization, 100 people agents are created. Each people agent is placed inside a building of type 'Residential' (randomly selected).

Model Definition

species

We define a new species of agents: the people agents. In this model, these agents will not have a specific behavior yet. They will be just displayed. Thus, we just have to define an aspect for the agents. We want to represent the people agents by a yellow circle of radius 10m. We then use the circle operator to define the shape to draw in the draw command, with the expected inner color (facet color) and border color (facet border).
