These R scripts create and visualize data from playing the Coalescent Simulation Game created by Chris Spencer for the Stat Gen retreat on 3 April 2016. The game scripts (i.e. not the ones that start with "Visualizing") take some initial parameter values and carry on from there. The scripts are set up to assign sites to generate mutations, recombinations, etc. randomly, but if you want to guarantee contiguous recombination or mutation sites, you'll need to assign them by hand, using the appropriate variables. If you want migration sites, those are the scripts with population structure. Be careful that you don't have more mutation, recombination, etc. sites than there are total sites in the set. There is no error checking to catch this. The visualization scripts require the "diagram" package in R. Assuming nothing goes wrong with generating the game in the initial scripts, then the visualization scripts should run without any trouble. If you want more or less time between the plot for each round, then change the number in the two "Sys.sleep(2)" commands. This is the number of seconds between each frame. That's pretty much it.
