Can a flock be steered towards a target ?
I've seen that flocking behavior has the alignement behavior, but can it be directed and steered toward a goal ?

http://www.red3d.com/cwr/steer/gdc99/ - flocking is just a combination of three steering behaviors and there's no reason you can't add a fourth or even more. – Sean Middleditch Jan 27 '14 at 01:51

would be great to have simple example of those algo, because opensteer is a little big. I'm also puzzled by how opensteer handle orientation, I'm trying to replicate those behavior with a physics libs (box2d), and I'm trying to make those behavior without orientation – jokoon Jan 27 '14 at 20:35

Read the paper, not the OpenSteer code. The math is really simple and should be trivial to reimplement from scratch yourself. – Sean Middleditch Jan 27 '14 at 22:03
