Spatialality
Previous models contained no element of spatiality whatsoever, so in order to improve on this we decided on a fixed volume in which our simulations would take place.
Implementation
A new variable was created called 'Volume' which was given a value of 1012 ml3 which was chosen as it is the typical volume of a standard laboratory petri dish. Furthermore, any additional HSL which is produced by cells spreads immediately through the entire volume, such that it is diluted to fill the volume.
