boids
addon for Godot that adds 2D / 3D boids (flocking).
it can handle about 2000 boids in a single flock at 11ms physics process tick on my PC (Ryzen 5600). (keep in mind this is without any partitioning of sorts, so it's bound to get better)
usage
download it from the asset library.
or clone the repository, and run just build-all to build the libraries (in release mode) for all supported targets.
(requires cross, just and nushell)
development
it's just a standard rust project under rust, so make sure you have rustup installed (or the toolchain specified under rust-toolchain.toml.)
also don't forget to have godot installed and available in your PATH (the extension currently targets 4.3).
- cargo features
- enable
statsfeature to let the extension log into godot console timings for how long its processing the boids.
- enable
todo
- memoize calculated distances
- implement avoidance (point avoidance, edge avoidance)
- implement nodes for these (for 2d, point and a rect node and 3d point and a cube node, circle / sphere too)
- implement partitioning (quadtree/octree)
- do we just use
spatialtreecrate?
- do we just use
- write better usage documentation
