Rules of the mathing (editable)

Seconds per hunt Shmoigles to sustain one hunter Shmoigles per new hunter Most hunters per group Blanket carrying capacity Max wariness level

Survivors double after every generation. If doubling would exceed the carrying capacity, every color is scaled down to fit (the blanket only holds so many). Shmoigles wander a little in generation 1; from generation 2 on, survivors are warier and scoot away from the utensil, one level stronger each generation until the max.

Each hunter in your group gets one timed hunt per generation. More hunters means more turns on the same blanket.
