Create Scatters

Create one or more agents at random positions within the bounds

To use this behaviour, specify one or more "scatter_templates" in init.json. The field "template_name" specifies the name of a specific scatter template, and "template_count" specifies the number of agents to create in the scatter. The fields and behaviors of the created agents may be set in the template. For example:

[{
  "behaviors": [
    "@hash/create-scatters/create_scatters.js",
    "@hash/create-agents/create_agents.js",
    "@hash/remove-self/remove_self.js"
  ],
  "scatter_templates": [{
    "template_name": "people",
    "template_count": 20,
    "coins": 1000,
    "color": "red",
    "behaviors": [
      "make_bet.js",
      "@hash/random-movement/random_movement.rs"
    ]
  }]
}]

This behavior also requires the bounds of the topology to be set in globals.json. For example:

{
  "topology": {
    "x_bounds": [0, 10],
    "y_bounds": [0, 10]
  }
}
