Hi,<div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div> We are going to be using StarLogo TNG for some after-hour educational outreach activities. I really like it but I wish there were more complete documentation. </div><div> </div><div> I have played around with StarLogo TNG for a couple of days so I have some idea of what the various parts of the canvas are for but is there some documentation which explains what the Turtles ( or other agents ), Setup, Runtime, Globals, Patches, Collisions sections are for? How are these sections created ? I see some sample projects have a Collisions section but no Patches section and vice versa. It's not always obvious where you should put things. For example, where should the graph blocks go? I can see it being in the runtime or one of the agent sections. </div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div> Does it only make sense to put a Setup block in the Setup section? What about the Runtime section? It seems like things you put in those two also show up as a button in the pane below SpaceLand. I see I can put Setup blocks in the Runtime section and things seem to work just like as if I put it in the Setup section. Are these sections just there for logical grouping of things?</div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div> Thanks!</div><div><br><br><div> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; ">-----------------------</span></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; ">Herb Schilling</span></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; "><a href="mailto:hschilling@nasa.gov">hschilling@nasa.gov</a></span></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; "><br class="khtml-block-placeholder"></div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"></span></span> </div><br></div></body></html>
