Objective

The objective of this school project is to create a simulation environment that mimics the behavior and interactions of a small ecosystem of creatures. It aims to model realistic behaviors as observed in nature within a controlled virtual setting.

Contributing

This project is an educational endeavor, and contributions are restricted to participating students.

Environment Setup for macOS

Ensure your shell is zsh before proceeding. Run bash echo $SHELL in your terminal. If the output is /bin/zsh, you're using zsh.

Update zsh Configuration

Edit .zshrc: Open with open -a TextEdit ~/.zshrc.

Add Variables:

export CPATH=/opt/X11/include:$CPATH
export LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/X11/lib:$LIBRARY_PATH
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/X11/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH

Apply Changes:

Run source ~/.zshrc in your terminal.

This setup ensures the X11 headers and libraries are correctly recognized for development.
