flocker is flocking simulation application using p5.js. The birds shown are Swallows.

For this demo, the variables are set to the following values:

• maxWrapAroundWidth = 816
• maxWrapAroundHeight = 480
• maxVelocity = 2.0
• maxAcceleration = 0.03
• desiredSeparation = 50.0
• desiredAlignment = 50.0
• desiredCohesion = 50.0
• separationWeight = 3.0
• alignmentWeight = 2.0
• cohesionWeight = 2.0
