Houses Variables Descriptions

General Behaviour

Houses are present mainly so that humans have a place to “belong” to. This is not to say that they are mere static objects. Contact between human and houses can be tracked throughout a simulation run to analyse the relation between the time people spend at a certain place and the probability of spreading a disease.
