Life history of the model during a single time step showing the transitions between age classes (rectangles) and decisional rules (rhombus) regulate these transitions. For example for a juvenile, if in the recruitment phase (recruitment rhombus) the result is ‘yes’ (Y), it becomes an adult and the individual enters the cycle for adults and then begin the mating phase. If the result is ‘no’ (N), it stays in the juvenile cycle and will be tested for its survival. The black squares correspond to death of an individual that is removed from the simulation. The mating phase is composed by the three processes in the bold rectangle and includes the implementation of the RPS game.
