## HexaBugs

By Sean Luke

HexaBugs is HeatBugs on a hexagonal grid. Hexagonal HeatBugs is an idea originally developed on the RePast toolkit. The environment is a toroidal 100x100 grid of hexagonal "heat" squares, populated with 100 "bugs" with built-in heaters. The bugs prefer it to be not too warm and not too cold (the range differs from bug to bug), and will follow the gradient towards regions more to their liking. The heat diffuses and evaporates at the provided rate.
