breath_mirror · x · 2026-08-13
A developer is building an interesting ant ecosystem simulation system and sharing continuous progress. The simulator currently features several complex ecological and behavioral mechanics:
- Support for large colonies of up to 10,000 ants
- A seasonal system where ant behavior changes (e.g., food cannot be dropped in winter)
- Addition of a random food dropper and predators like spiders
- A "Queen's decree" mechanic to control ant decision-making
- Detailed colony journals and customizable worker type percentages
