- The process of creating a simulation form a simulation template is referred to as instantiation. The - instantiation process is divided into two steps: - -

    -

  1. - - Mapping (Ready Template -> Mapped Template). Starting with - a ready (complete) simulation template, a copy (clone) is - created. This new template is then mapped to objects in the - CityBuild world, such as characters and properties. - -

  3. - Casting (Mapped Template -> Simulation). From a mapped simulation template, a copy (clone) is created, + Casting (Simulation in Development -> Simulation). From a + fully developed simulation, a copy (clone) is created (not sure + we need to clone any more at this point. Just keep working on + the simulation - JA), and this new template becomes a simulation once it is connected to users in the real world and time frame and other properties of the simulation are specified. A simulation is subdivided into one or more simulation cases that each have their own set of users and will execute independently of eachother. A large class can thus be divided into smaller groups where each group has its own simulation case to play in. -
