This is a simulation contains rabbits and wolves in a natural environment.

This was created as a part of our Bachelor's thesis project. More information about this can be found in our report found here: CSE_Bachelor_s_Thesis.pdf

This readme covers the following sections:

• Dev Tools
  • Plot Data
    • Average Values
    • Amount of Animals
    • FPS
  • Render State Diagrams
• Simulation Details
  • Time relations
  • Wolves
  • Rabbits

Tools used for development and analysis.

Install python packages with pip install -r requirements.txt inside the Plotting folder. Run a script in Plotting, it searches recursively for the log files from the directory the script is being ran from.

Run average.py. opens an interactive graph. Searches for detailed.json.

Run n_animals.py. Searches for detailed.json.

Run avg_fps.py. plots fps. Searches for fps.csv, overview.csv, fps_baseline.csv (the baseline fps to compare to).

java -jar plantuml.jar states.txt in Meta/StateDiagrams

This section covers information about the simulation.

The time in the simulation is not a perfect model of reality. We do however want the relationships between the animals fertilties/pregnancy times to be correct. Therefore we have said that 12 hour in the game represents 1 month in real life. 1 day is therefore 2 months

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolf https://www.nationalgeographic.org/media/growing-up-wolf/ Pregnancy time wolf 62-75 days Offspring amount 5-6 Fertility time after 2 years Generally can have 1 litter per year. Live for 5-12 years

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabbit Pregnancy time rabbit 28-35 days Offspring average amount 5-6 but ranges from 2 to 10. Fertility time 5-8 months Can get pregnant the day after being pregnant...
