What does the Boids Mod change about fish in Minecraft?

It replaces the vanilla flocking behavior of fish with a boids simulation, giving them more realistic and dynamic group movement.

What is a boids simulation?

A boids simulation is a computer model that mimics the flocking or herding behavior seen in nature, such as birds or fish moving together.

What are the three rules each fish follows in the Boids Mod?

Each fish follows separation, alignment, and cohesion.

What does the separation rule do?

Separation makes a fish steer to avoid crowding its local flockmates.

What does the cohesion rule do?

Cohesion makes a fish steer toward the average position, or center of mass, of its local flockmates.
