Subject: RE : Passives Objects ?

Hello

Passive objects are like social agents. They have less primitives as they
cannot move but rather beMoved. They can be localized in a cell, the same
way thn the agents. A Good model to see the use of passiveObjects is
RobotsFourrageurs which I attach.

If you have the information on ascii file it will be loaded as an attribute
of the cell. Then what you should do, in the initialization program is to
loop on the cells and if the attribute of the cell indicates a borehole,
instanciate a new Borehole object.

Now for the communication: if your idea is that the borehole communicates
the nformation to the agents, then your borehole should have an
acquaintances attribute to communicate with selected agents.
The other possibility is that agents are connected to some borholes and look
at them before deciding

Hope it helps
