Which is why my take on this is to start small, then add on the bells and whistles. IMHO, even adapting the Java zombie simulator that Chaz sent around to RB would be a good base to start from.

March 26, 2005 - I had a few hours to kill today, raining, so here is an initial start as Jeff suggested we do. This is for OS X. This is VERY quick and dirty coding.

The first version I tried was running the simulation via a timer. The zombies are drawn in the wrong places, but it's a start. It takes awhile to get the window to show up, the initialization sequence takes some time.

I decided to try and use threads to speed things up. I am a rookie at threads, but this is my latest version. Runs OK, keyboard commands are enabled in this. See the original source for details. Threaded Version - Rb Project File
