Updated:
I am trying to install repast hpc 2.3.1 on my MacBook Pro with M1 processor, however I run into the following issue. I am following the Install.txt instructions included in the package. The issue now occurs when I try to use ./install rhpc
I get the following errors, which seem to stem from the GridComponents.o file failing to find the DBL_MAX variable and marking it as undeclared:

I've outlined all the required fixes (including the DBL_MAX fix) here: https://github.com/Repast/repast.hpc/issues/7. With those in place, the zombies and rumor demo models work on macOS on an M1 Max laptop.
All that said, and as an aside, we typically do our repast hpc and repast4py development work on a Linux VM running under Parallels or VMWare Fusion on a Mac. This is because that more closely matches the cluster or HPC environments we ultimately run the models on.
