abstract class SimActor extends Coroutine with PQItem with Ordered[SimActor] with Locatable with Error

The SimActor abstract class represents entities that are active in the model. The 'act' abstract method, which specifies entity behavior, must be defined for each subclass. Each SimActor extends Scala's Actor class and may be roughly thought of as running in its own thread.
