Grasshopper Boid

The BOID library operates exclusively with Agent locations (Grasshopper points) and Agent motion vectors (Grasshopper vectors). Each component calculates specific motion vector based on certain Agent behavior. The vectors need to be aggregated into a compound vector and iteratively applied insode an Anemone loop.

Boid Plugin

The second, completely reworked release of a swarm behaviour library for Grasshopper.

The BOID library operates exclusively with Agent locations (Grasshopper points) and Agent motion vectors (Grasshopper vectors). Each component calculates specific motion vector based on certain Agent behavior. The vectors need to be aggregated into a compound vector and iteratively applied insode an Anemone loop.

The library relies vastly on the Anemone plugin which provides loopback of the boid current locations and motion vectors.

For a usage example please refer to the tutorial definition.

Any comments will be appreciated.
