java.lang.Object | +----gerken.vehicles.VehicleNetwork
A VehicleNetwork represents a collection of NetworkNodes and NetworkConnections and implements a set of behavior appropriate to that collection. The properties of the nodes in a network as well as the way in which the nodes are connected are the basis for the behaviors exhibited by that network's simulation vehicle. The network class decribes the behavior that drives the interaction between nodes, connections and the "outside" simulation environment.

VehicleNetwork()
Return a new vehicle network.
addConnection(NetworkConnection)
Register a connection to the network
addHiddenNode(HiddenNode)
Register a hidden node to the network.
addReceptor(Receptor)
Register a receptor to the network
blue()
Build and return a vehicle network that veers its vehicle away from white light.
chaser(Color)
Build and return a vehicle network that veers its vehicle toward a light colored c.
cruiser()
Build and return a vehicle network that travels straight ahead.
getDescription()
Return the network's descriptive name
green()
Build and return a vehicle network that veers its vehicle toward a white light.
lemming()
Build and return a vehicle network that follows others of its kind.
nodeNamed(String)
Return the registered node named name.
normalizeAngle(double)
Return the equivalent angle (in radians, between + and - pi)
orbiter(Color)
Build and return a vehicle network that orbits any c-colored light.
red()
Build and return a vehicle network that veers its vehicle first toward and then away from a white light.
setDescription(String)
Set the network's desriptive name.
setLeftMotorNode(NetworkNode)
Specify the node to be connected to the vehicle's left wheel motor.
setRightMotorNode(NetworkNode)
Specify the node to be connected to the vehicle's right wheel motor.
yellow()
Build and return a vehicle network that veers its vehicle toward a white light.
VehicleNetwork
public VehicleNetwork()
Return a new vehicle network.
addConnection
public void addConnection(NetworkConnection vnc)
Register a connection to the network
addHiddenNode
public void addHiddenNode(HiddenNode node)
Register a hidden node to the network.
addReceptor
public void addReceptor(Receptor r)
Register a receptor to the network
blue
public static VehicleNetwork blue()
Build and return a vehicle network that veers its vehicle away from white light.
chaser
public static VehicleNetwork chaser(Color c)
Build and return a vehicle network that veers its vehicle toward a light colored c. The chaser is a more efficient network than the yellow "network".
cruiser
public static VehicleNetwork cruiser()
Build and return a vehicle network that travels straight ahead.
getDescription
public String getDescription()
Return the network's descriptive name
green
public static VehicleNetwork green()
Build and return a vehicle network that veers its vehicle toward a white light.
lemming
public static VehicleNetwork lemming()
Build and return a vehicle network that follows others of its kind.
nodeNamed
public NetworkNode nodeNamed(String name)
Return the registered node named name.
normalizeAngle
public double normalizeAngle(double angle)
Return the equivalent angle (in radians, between + and - pi)
orbiter
public static VehicleNetwork orbiter(Color c)
Build and return a vehicle network that orbits any c-colored light.
red
public static VehicleNetwork red()
Build and return a vehicle network that veers its vehicle first toward and then away from a white light.
setDescription
public void setDescription(String desc)
Set the network's desriptive name.
setLeftMotorNode
public void setLeftMotorNode(NetworkNode n)
Specify the node to be connected to the vehicle's left wheel motor. When this node fires, the vehicle will either move forward or turn right, depending on whether the right wheel motor did or did not also fire, respectively.
setRightMotorNode
public void setRightMotorNode(NetworkNode n)
Specify the node to be connected to the vehicle's right wheel motor. When this node fires, the vehicle will either move forward or turn left, depending on whether the left wheel motor did or did not also fire, respectively.
yellow
public static VehicleNetwork yellow()
Build and return a vehicle network that veers its vehicle toward a white light.
