[starlogo-users] Need help

[Eric Klopfer]

Check out the way that the sonics smell the marios in the sonics vs.  
mario demo game that comes with TNG.  Essentially each round the  
sonics move one step in each direction and smell the number of marios  
that they see there.

You could do something similar where you had the agent move only  
forward and smell and then move back.

We'll have more advanced processing of smell in an upcoming release.
