The tennis game that is described in the xml is a double, thus there are four tennis players on the court. There is a handful of spectators that are really excited about the game. The spectators have different preferences about the teams that they favor or are neutral. To vary the mood-states, each spectator has an euphoria factor that determines how much a change in the mood-state will affect it. The mood-state of a spectator is shown with expressive facial expressions and some typical animations. Additionally to the animations and expressions the mood-state is expressed by speech as well.
