Forest Fire Simulator

This is a forest fire simulator. It is designed to simulate the spread of forest fires.

Configuration

The fire simulator is configurable via its configuration file config.toml.

• width defines the width of the simulation.
• height defines the height of the simulation.
• igniteProbability is the probability that a burning square propagate to a neiboroud square.
• seed is the inital value of the RNG to make reproductible simulation.
• stepsPerSecond is the goal speed of the simulation. This field mean, do AT MOST X steps per second.

An example of configuration : 

width = 400
height = 400

igniteProbability = 0.65
seed = 11
stepsPerSecond = 60

Compilation

Just use the Makefile.

$ make fire   # To compile
$ ./fire      # To launch the simulation

Interfaces

There is 2 interfaces that you can choose from, the textual one and a GUI (with raylib). By default, the configuration is set to CONSOLE_INTERFACE, since the default values of the simulation are adapted to be printed in the console.

To change the interface, you must define the RAYLIB_INTERFACE preprocessor header.

$ make fire CFLAGS="-D RAYLIB_INTERFACE"

With the raylib interface, there is a option to compute the runtime steps per second, by defining the SHOW_FPS preprocessor constant. To achieve +400fps in full screen, you can switch to the ⚡ branch.
