    • Method Detail

      • generate

        T generate​(S mas,
           SimulationParameters params)
        Generates a new agent for the given multi-agent system.
        Parameters:
        mas - some multi-agent system.
        params - this object can be used for sharing parameters across the generating components of a simulation.
        Returns:
        an agent for type T

      • setSeed

        void setSeed​(long seed)
        Set the seed for the generation. Every two runs of generations with the same seed are ensured to be identical.
        Parameters:
        seed - some seed.
