Welcome to the Pandemicrs project! This interactive simulation visualizes the spread of an infectious disease among a simulated population within a graphical environment, crafted using Rust and Raylib.
- Real-time Simulation: Watch as a virtual population interacts and experiences the spread of an infection in real-time.
- Infection Dynamics: Visualize how proximity and time influence the spread of the disease among individuals.
- Customizable Settings: Adjust parameters such as population size and infection radius to see how they impact the dynamics of the infection.
- Graphical Representation: Each individual is represented as a pixel on the screen that changes color based on their infection status.
- Performance Metrics: Real-time display of frames per second (FPS) and a count of healthy vs. infected individuals.
- Ensure you have Rust installed on your system.
- Run
cargo add raylib
-
Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/yourgithub/pandemic-simulation.git cd pandemic-simulation -
Compile and run the program:
cargo run
You can modify the following constants in the code to tweak the simulation settings:
WINDOW_DIMENSIONS: Set the dimensions of the window where the simulation runs.POPULATION_SIZE: Define the number of individuals in the simulation.INFECTION_RADIUS: Adjust the radius within which the infection can spread.INFECTION_DURATION: Set the duration an individual remains infectious.
- White Pixel: Represents a healthy individual.
- Red Pixel: Represents an infected individual.
- FPS Display: Shows how many frames per second the simulation is running.
- Infection Counters: Displays the current number of infected and healthy individuals.
Feel free to explore and modify the behavior of the simulation to understand more about the spread of infectious diseases!
