Im looking to get started in the art of flocking. So far, all Ive found out is that each agent adhere to the following three rules: * Steer towards flocks average position * Steer towards flocks average heading * Steer away from closest agent if its to close. So now I got three angles the agent wants to aim towards. Do I just get the average angle of those three? Like: Angle=(a1+a2+a3)/3 Am I completely of track here? I got another question straight away. I think Im going to make each agent one pixel, therefor it has only 8 directions it can travel in, all the neighbour pixels. Is this to little? Also, if anyone got any great articles on the subject, I would like to see them! :)

Just in case you haven't read the original Craig Reynolds paper, you can find it at:

A library which implements that functionality (and lots more), plus has some really nice demos, check out Craig Reynold's codebase

Thanks a bunch! Ill read them right away. :)
