Is there any way to use an initial seed? #29

filannim commented 4 years ago

I've noticed that, in general, multiple running of the algorithm can lead to different layouts (positions). I was wondering whether there's a way to set an initial seed and force the algorithm to be replicable over time.

@underyx , @gokceneraslan , @victorbenichoux, and especially @bhargavchippada - thanks for the package. Can you point out the direction of solving this issue if it can be done with your package?

@filannim Any luck yourself dealing with this situation?

It's not in the current version - but my PR (which was mainly about animation), did implement this: https://github.com/bhargavchippada/forceatlas2/pull/11
