Class YellowPage

java.lang.Object
  nl.tudelft.simulation.event.EventProducer
      org.gscg.common.interactionlayer.location.YellowPage

All Implemented Interfaces:

nl.tudelft.simulation.event.EventProducerInterface, java.io.Serializable

public class YellowPage

extends nl.tudelft.simulation.event.EventProducer

The YellowPage object is a place holder for the actors in an interactive simulation. Whenever an actor is added or removed this object sends LocationAndNameData objects to all the client-side graphical user interfaces which upon receiving this data adjust their WorldPanel. It is furthermore used to support social communication by means of text messages between human controlled actors and a game leader.
