The PPC Community Spiderweb is a project to show the links between every PPC agent - and every other PPC agent.
The Spiderweb
The Spiderweb has been created using Graphviz, and demonstrates direct links between agents - that is, whether they have directly interacted with each other on-page.
It also shows which department they are in, by the colour of the node that contains each agent's name. All colour names are taken from Graphviz's X11 list.

Contributing Your Agents
In order to add your agents to the Spiderweb, please take the following steps:
- Read the instructions on how to edit the master list. It has a very low level of required coding, but the coding is essential.
- Add your agents' names to the Master List, taking care to follow the instructions (above) carefully.
- Please don't add Department Heads! The Sunflower Official has met everybody.
- If you need to add a new department, make sure the colour you pick isn't already in use!
- Add your name to Contributors below.
- Wait for Huinesoron to upload a new version - or, if you understand the program, feel free to upload it yourself! We're using the latest version of Graphviz, exporting using the 'neato' layout engine and (of course) 'jpg' output.
