Requirements




Start/Stop/Pause/Restart the entire visualization (all agents).
Start/Stop/Pause a chosen agent.
Turn on/off tracing agent movements.
The user must have access to the information about the
objects throughout the simulation: {name, size, position,
color}.
 Up to you how to provide this information.
