Crowd Dynamics: Netlogo

This program reads in an external image, identifies areas that are walkable and then starts a simulation. The simulation involves an important character , a crowd, instigators and police. The instigators hide in the crowd and eventually reveal. At this point, the police are called and will eventually arrive on the scene. Until that point, the crowd is in chaos, fleeing the instigators. When the police arrive on the scene, they will apprehend the instigators. When all the instigators have been taken care of, the simulation will end and display a time showing how long it took police from call to capture as a way to judge the efficiency of the run.

Currently, instigators and police are not functional. The instigator exists but does not act differently than the crowd. This project has been passed on with my work as a basis.
