A Simulation
A simulation, in filu, is the running kernel that is simulating a world. It is the go routine that is receiving ticks from the clock, taking input from the actors and applying it to the simulated world, then calculating the world state of the next frame and sending it back out to the actors. It is the game loop.
A simulation has a life cycle. It begins as an UnstartedSimulation. An unstarted simulation has only one behavior, it can Begin.
Once the simulation has begun, it is a RunningSimulation. A running simulation can connect and remove actors. It can also halt which stops the simulation.
A HaltedSimulation has no defined behavior yet. But it could perhaps contain stats and analytics. Maybe all the Actors that remained connected through the Halt.
rpg2d is an implementation of the Simulation interface and life cycle.

type Actor ¶
type Actor struct {
// The Name of the User that owns the Actor.
Username string
// The Name used to represent an Actor in a world.
Name string
}
An Actor is the ID of a unique entity in a world. The uniqueness of a Username+ActorName combination allows an Actor to be the key in a key/value database containing game specific statistics and values associated with a specific Actor.
