I don't know what the problem might be. Usually, you keep your agents in a
list, and when you kill some, you delete them  from the list,  and you
birth some new ones and add them to the list.  As long as your scheduling
is correct, and it causes the whole list to be processed, then the
simulation should take into account the new players.  Are you sure your
scheduling is sweeping through the list?
