Thanks Luís and Ernesto, that's really helpful.
I imagine that extending MasonGeometry will have a lower overhead than maintaining a map of Geometry->Agent.
Ernesto, what are the implications of having to make Agent serializable? MasonGeometry implements Serializable, I can continue to implement Steppable.
Thanks in advance,
Nick
