Atoms has several layout modules but you can create new modules with c++. This example shows how create a layout module for generating agents along a input curve.

This example is made of two parts:

the layout generator responsible for creating the agents
a behaviour module responsible for creating the layout generator and attaching it to the agent group

Writing the curve layout generator

The layout generator object generates the description of new agents created at every frame. A generator can be static or dynamic. A static generator creates the agent descriptions only at the first frame, while a dynamic one can generate new agents at every frame. In this example our generator is static, since the agents are created only at the first frame along the curve. If you want to create a dynamic generator just use the setAsStaticgenerator(false) function inside the constructor.

The generate function creates a vector of AgentInitData objects. This object defines the position, direction, agent type, groupId of the new agents. The agent group uses this information to create thee new agents.

Writing the curve layout module

To use the curve layout generator a new behaviour modules is needed. This behaviour module exposes the generator attributes to the user and sends all the data to the generator itself.
