About Paper:

The task involves creating a simulation to study the dynamics of social influence within a real-time, multi-user virtual environment. Each player must forage for limited resources, such as charging stations, and utilize their limited tools, such as energy and money balance effectively in this environment. The main objective is to explore how factors such as pricing, user budgets, and competition for resources influence decision- making and social behavior. The project involves two main parts: the server and client side. The client side controls the interface and parameters for the environment, whilst the server side handles client- server communication, the game state, and recording data using MySQL and a JSON configuration file. An overview of the features and their code is provided in the progress report. By combining real-time communication between server and clients, interactive dashboards for adjusting parameters, and persistent storage of user interactions to compete for limited resources, this project represents a fusion of behavioral science and web development.
