The PSO (Particle Swarm Optimizer) object by Ben Bogart kind of does
this. It can be found in the CVS under externals/bbogart/pso. It is
really designed for solving optimisation problems, but it is based on
the biological model of a flocking behaviour. You set a target as an n-
dimensional vector and n solutions will "flock" through the space
following their neighbours and the optimal solution.
