Particle Simulator

A gamified particle simulator that I made as my high school project over the span of 3 months.  The original idea was to make a particle simulator that imitated reality; having semi-real quantum-mechanical particle interactions and chemistry, but due to time constraints and technical complications that quickly shifted to making a simpler, gamified version. 

Controls:

• W, A, S, D - Move
• Space - Go up
• Ctrl - Go down
• Left mouse - Push particles in front of you
• Right mouse - Pull all particles to the middle of the domain

Note:

You can change the simulation parameters by navigating to "Particle Simulator_Data\Resources" from the root folder and opening "LaunchSettings.json". 

Simulation parameters:

• "simulationMethod": Determines whether the physics calculations should occur on the GPU (0) or CPU (1).
• "testType": Determines what the test type should be, 0 for a simple, two particle simulation to demonstrate individual particle interactions. 1 to demonstrate large quantities of interactions.
• "configuration": Only matters if testType is set to 0, determines what type of particles should appear. 0 for two up quarks, 1 for two down quarks and 2 for one up quark and one down quark.
• "particleDistance": Only matters if testType is set to 0, determines how far apart the particles should be at the start.
• "numParticles": Only matters if testType is set to 1, determines the amount of particles to populate the domain with.
• "regionSize": DON'T CHANGE THIS, I have not tested it enough to know if it can safely be changed.
• "upToDownRatio": Only matters if testType is set to 1, determines the amount of up quarks and down quarks.  0 for all down quarks and 1 for all up quarks.
• "sK": Force constant for the strong force.
• "eK": Force constant for the electromagnetic force.
• "wK": Force constant for the weak force.
• "dK": Force constant for the degeneracy pressure (if two particles happen to overlap, they will be pushed away by a force with a magnitude of this constant).
• "sR": The minimum effective range of the strong force.
• "wR": The minimum effective range of the weak force.
• "baseParticleRadius": Size of the particles.
• "maxCouplingsPerParticle": Unused.
