Simulating a simple two-species Ecosystem in UnityPucoski, Kristijan (Avtor) Lebar Bajec, Iztok (Mentor) simulationvisualisationecosystemnatural-selectionevolutionreal-timeUnityMany video games include virtual ecosystems populated by a variety of animals with realistic behaviour. This diploma thesis aims to use the Unity game engine to simulate various configurations of these ecosystems, enabling users to analyze outcomes both in real-time and through visualizations of compiled simulation data. The virtual animals in the simulation are based on genomes with genes that can mutate, influencing traits and behaviors like speed and vision. We examine how the quantity of resources and the traits of individuals influence the natural selection of prey and predators and implement the system in video games for more immersive experience.20262026-02-27 08:50:01Diplomsko delo/naloga179944VisID: 38162COBISS_ID: 270952707sl
