This is exactly the kind of problem NetLOGO is geared toward modelling and solving. It is very much like the LOGO (turtle graphics) you might have learned as a tween, but multi-agent, so you can model the behaviour of several types of cars (fast, slow, hesitant, etc), design a few multi-lane obstacles, and let 'r rip. There are 3D and 2D versions, but your problem will quite suit the 2D version. Check it out. I'd... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

My team has a simulation model in NetLogo that needs a separate UI (data with will flow back and forth between simulation and UI, largely in the form of csv files). How might this be set up in Azure? Any recommendations for UI frameworks (React+Flask, Vue+Express, etc.) or file [system log] storage? I am very new to development so any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

I have a piece of code in NetLogo programming language that I am unable to run in NetLogo software (https://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/) as I am facing some errors while doing so. If anyone can help me, we can discuss the budget. Source: almost 2 years ago

Other answers are good, and for the messing around part, maybe checkout Flowsquare (the 2d Version) to start with. Source: almost 2 years ago

As you can probably tell, I’m lacking the key terms needed for a useful Google search, so haven’t had much luck yet - any pointers/tips greatly appreciated. Something that’s straightforward to implement with little learning curve is ideal. This iOS app is the best I’ve found so far, though I’d also like ways of defining the shape & extracting velocities. Flowsquare also looks promising for what I had in mind,... Source: about 2 years ago
