Task Management: Beyond Simple Activities

The task management system in a SIMULACRA creates a rich tapestry of purposeful actions that goes far beyond simple scripted behaviors.

Task Complexity

Tasks in the SIMULACRA exist on multiple levels:

Immediate Tasks

• Basic need fulfillment

• Response to environmental changes

• Social opportunities

• Urgent situations

Strategic Tasks

• Long-term goal pursuit

• Relationship development

• Resource accumulation

• Skill improvement

Task Selection and Execution

The beauty of the task system lies in how citizens select and execute their activities:

Decision Framework

• Need prioritization

• Opportunity assessment

• Resource evaluation

• Social considerations

• Environmental conditions

Execution Dynamics

• Progress monitoring

• Adjustment mechanisms

• Interruption handling

• Completion assessment

SOMNIUMCRA's decision-making system creates sophisticated behavioral patterns that emerge from multiple interacting factors:

class DecisionEngine:
    """
    Creates complex decision-making processes that consider multiple factors
    and create emergent behavioral patterns. Like human decision-making,
    it balances various needs, preferences, and contextual factors.
    """
    async def calculate_activity_score(
        self,
        activity: ActivityType,
        agent_state: Dict[str, Any],
        context: Dict[str, Any]
    ) -> float:
        # Integrate multiple decision factors:
        # - Current needs and desires
        # - Past experiences
        # - Personality traits
        # - Environmental conditions
        # - Social opportunities

This system successfully works to create natural, contextually appropriate decisions.
