Forest Simulation is a sample application that tries to demonstrate how a 3D application can be built using Eclipse RCP + EMF + JMonkey.
It has been used as a support for EclipseCon 2020 for the talk Lifting 15 tons blocks with Eclipse.
The application aims to create simulations of how a forest grow by modeling tree interactions.
The types of tree are (at the moment) hard coded.
Then the simulation relies on several properties editable in the application:
-
Maximum number of trees
-
Matching year period (speed of the emulation)
-
Several probabilities:
-
Child tree
-
Pioneer tree creation
-
Health/Sick probability
-
-
And many others
Build and test mvn clean verify in folder fr.obeo.forestsimulation.parent
In order to make the project compile in Eclipse you need to compile the project at least once with Maven to download the required dependencies.
