rust-ants-colony-simulation's Issues

Feature request: Variable speeds

I've noticed that the ants seem to be moving at a constant speed and seem to turn at a constant speed too. Is that right? I think that might be what's preventing the trail from simplifying more quickly.

I'm not sure how ants do it in real life, so feel free to close this if it's not realistic

Unnecessary loop?

rust-ants-colony-simulation/src/ant.rs

Line 125 in 3ecceb2

break;

This break statement makes the loop never execute. Is the loop needed?

Hi,

I get the following error when I attempt to run on my machine:

cd rust-ants-colony-simulation
cargo run

I would like to make a PR with some optimizations, but I am unable to benchmark the optimizations due to the aforementioned error. Please let me know if you need any additional information.

Thank you!
