Agents skipping initial response about bdi-abm-integration

[dhixsingh]

Haven't found instances of this in the large 500 agents test SurfCoastShirePopulationSubgroupsTest. The closest I got was this where it seems that ActNow is happening before InitialResponse but it is not (just logging is out of order in that timestep):

MIght be this is no longer an issue but leaving open for now.

[osbornejr]

Do you reproduce the output I posted above on the referenced commit? Even if it is unlikely, it is worrying that it can happen-- whatever process is going on the result is an agent ignoring their dependents.

[dhixsingh]

I just tried this. In that commit the random seed was not getting set correctly so the results are non-deterministic. I ran the test four times and got four slightly different logs but Resident 3 went to the dependents each time. Can't say I can reproduce this one. Can you @osbornejr?

[osbornejr]

As of latest commit, am still getting this behaviour. Hard to pin down though because it doesn't happen every time or with the same resident every time. Here is a read out of resident 4 on one run:

I then could not reproduce it on any subsequent runs. Apart from this issue, is the seed working properly? Even the previous commit was after the seed was meant to have been fixed, so this in itself is worrying.

[dhixsingh]

Try disabling congestion rerouting as that causes some non determinism too. I will look again too.
