Ants-Simulation

Ant colony simulation written in pure JavaScript.

What is this?

• Ants (purple and blue pixels) follow pheromone trails in order to find their way to and from food sources.
• Green pheromones attract ants who are looking for food.
• Red pheromones attract ants who are looking to return to the ant hill (red center circle) with food they've collected.
• As an ant leaves the ant hill, it produces red pheromones.
• As an ant leaves a food source (pink rectangle), it produces green pheromones.
• Overtime, trails of pheromones will form which will act to guide other ants in finding food and returning home.
