Here's my code;
on *:text:!points:#:{
msg # $nick has $readini(Points.ini,$+(#,.,$nick),Points) total points.
}
Thats ok but if 5 people do !points in a row, it spams the chat. How do I make it update every 10 seconds and then display a message with the points of the people who have asked in that ten seconds but all in one message?
Here is a code that will only take 3 requests in 5 seconds.
on *:text:!points:#: {
inc -u5 %flood. [ $+ [ # ] $+ ]
if (%flood. [ $+ [ # ] ] > 3) {
return
}
msg # $nick has $readini(Points.ini,$+(#,.,$nick),Points) total points.
}

I have the following doubts:
I have several individuals of 9 turtle codes.
The turtle codes are: R1M1 R2M1 R3M1 R1M2 R2M2 R3M2 R1M3 R2M3 R3M3. And I have 10 individuals of each code.
As the code is structured in a loop sequence and the order that the code exits in the result exported in .csv, I would like to ask the first individual of the first code (R1M1) to print the output header. But, I'm only getting it using one-of, and then the header often doesn't come out in the first line of the output. And I don't know how I can access the first turtle from the R1M1 code. Does anyone have any ideas?
What I thought of is calling turtle 0 which has the code R1M1. But, I still don't know how to do this in NetLogo.
OBS.: I tried to use only turtle 0, but in the other codes, too, there is turtle 0 and then the header appears.
Thanks in advance
let n count turtles with [ profiles-code = "R1M1" ]
if n > 0
[
ask one-of turtles with [ profiles-code = "R1M1" ]
[
prepare-header-output;; CALL A PROCEDURE
]
]
An example of how the header is coming out (has 3 individuals from each of the 9 codes)
I would use a flag / semaphore variable to indicate if a header is needed. You'll need to adapt the below if you have your turtles outputting the data, but hopefully this will get you pointed in the right direction- more details in comments:
globals [ need-headers? ]
turtles-own [ class ]
to setup
ca
random-seed 1
set need-headers? true
if file-exists? "test_output.csv" [ file-delete "test_output.csv" ]
crt 10 [
set class item random 5 "ABCDE"
]
reset-ticks
end
to go
if count turtles < 1 [ stop ]
ask turtles [
if random-float 1 < 0.25 [ die ]
]
; Toy output example
file-open "test_output.csv"
foreach range length "ABCDE" [ i ->
; Output headers if needed
if need-headers? [
file-print "turtle-type, count, ticks"
; Change the need-headers? to false so this step will only happen once
set need-headers? false
]
let ltr item i "ABCDE"
let n-type count turtles with [ class = ltr ]
file-print ( word ltr "," n-type "," ticks )
]
file-close
tick
end
Output here looks something like:
but if I don't change need-headers? to false, it looks like:
I have the following problem. I need to loop through the code. However, it doesn't work.
Contextualizing the problem: I have 3 files (in .asc) that represent data referring to 3 ages of the turtles (age 2, age 4 and age 8). I would like if the user puts the value 1 in num-user, it would only do the simulation with only one file (L_2) that would represent [ "2" ] ; if the user puts the value 2 in num-user, he would do the simulation with the files (L_2 and L_4) that would represent [ "2" "4" ] and finally, if the user puts the value 3 in num-use, it would simulate the files (L_2 , L_4 and L_8) that would represent [ "2" "4" "8" ]. The problem is that the loop is not working and gives various errors. Like:
Extension exception: ascii file ./L_8.asc not found or Can't find element 3 of the list [2 4 8], which is only of length 3 or go runs more than 3 simulations.
I was unable to attach the .ascii files here in the question. But if anyone can look at the code and identify the error I would be very grateful. I can't use BehaviouSpace to solve the situation, I need this loop in the code.
Thanks in advance!

Whenever possible, I'd suggest paring down your code to a MRE to a) make sure that users here can run your code (without your files, for example, this is not really viable) and b) to see if reframing your question / goals in simpler terms would help get things working- at least that's what works for me!
I think that you might find foreach useful here as a way to loop through your desired simulations instead of manually tracking the number of iterations. For this example, assuming num-user is a numeric input widget on the interface, the setup below will determine which of the ages to process:
globals [ ages-to-run ]
to base-setup
ca
; Determine how many simulations to run, based on user input into
; 'num-user' numerical input widget on the interface
ifelse num-user < 1 or num-user > 3 [
print "Incorrect number of simulations indicated"
] [
let possible-sims [ "2" "4" "8" ]
set ages-to-run sublist possible-sims 0 num-user
]
reset-ticks
end
After running the above, the ages-to-run variable will contain ["2"], ["2" "4"], or ["2" "4" "8"]. Next, you can iterate over those desired ages to run your simulations (a little more detail in comments):
to run-simulations
if ages-to-run = 0 [
print "Simulation setup not complete"
]
foreach ages-to-run [
; This is the loop proper where each "age" is iterated.
; All of your simulation calls (manual variable resetting,
; etc) should all go within this loop.
current-age ->
print word "Running simulations for age: " current-age
let file-to-load ( word "./L_" current-age ".asc" )
print file-to-load
clear-turtles
ask n-of 5 patches [
sprout 1 [
pd
set color runresult current-age + 55
]
]
repeat 20 [
ask turtles [
rt random 60 - 30
fd 1
]
tick
]
print ( word "Simulations complete for age: " current-age "\n" )
]
end
Running that code above with 3 entered into num-user will run a simulation for each age (different colors indicate different runs):
So to run simulations proper, all your per-age code should go within that foreach loop indicated above- and be careful, as you were in your question, to not reset global variables.
I have a microorganism that is eating 160 lettuce molecules. I want the microorganism to only eat one of the lettuce molecules every 60 ticks. How do I write that code in? Below is the code for the microorganism eating the lettuce molecules. Thanks in advance!
to go
ask microorganisms [
move
let food one-of lettuces-here
if food != nobody [
ask food [ die ]
]
]
tick
end
to move
set lettuce_index 1
loop [
ifelse lettuce lettuce_index != nobody [
face lettuce lettuce_index
fd 1
stop
]
[
set lettuce_index lettuce_index + 1
]
]
end
I can't work out what your move procedure is supposed to do. However, I don't think that's important to solve the 'only do this every 60 ticks' problem. The easiest way is to use the mod primitive. So put your entire eating of food inside an if condition with if ticks mod 60 = 0 [ ]
I want to set my code so that each forager (a breed of turtle) will have a 10% chance of dying for each tick it is vulnerable. I am building off of a code called Ants in the Netlogo models library.
When I use use [if random 100 > 98 [ die ]] (or anything below 98) nearly all of my turtles will die at the beginning and survive more after a hundred or so ticks have passed. However if I use [if random 100 > 98 [ die ]] no turtles will die. It's very weird.
to go ;; forever button
ask foragers
[ if who >= ticks [ stop ]
ifelse color = red
[ look-for-food ]
[ return-to-nest ]
check-death
wiggle
fd 1 ]
to check-death
ask foragers [
if vulnerable?
[if random 100 > 99
[ die ]]]
end
I expected [if random 100 > 98 [ die ]] to make it so that a vulnerable turtle would only have a 2% chance of dying per tick rather than an immediate wipeout.
The issue here is due to nested ask statements. You have an ask foragers [ ... statement that contains check-death, which contains another ask foragers statement. So, every single forager will be asking all foragers (including itself) to check-death. So, if you have 10 foragers, each forager will be running check-death 10 times per tick.
You should just be able to remove the ask foragers block from within your check-death procedure to solve your issue- have a look at this toy model example:
turtles-own [ vulnerable? ]
to setup
ca
crt 100 [ set vulnerable? one-of [ true false ] ]
reset-ticks
end
to go
ask turtles [
rt random 61 - 30
fd 1
check-death
]
if not any? turtles with [ vulnerable? ] [
print count turtles
stop
]
tick
end
to check-death
if vulnerable? and random-float 1 > 0.90 [
die
]
end
That will randomly assign vulnerable? to the turtles, then have vulnerable turtles die if a randomly generated float value is greater than 0.90 (for the 10% chance mentioned in your question). Once there are no more turtles left, the model will stop.
For a project, I'm developping a simulation in NetLogo dealing with rabies diseases in dogs and humans. I have some turtles-humans with dogs that can be vaccinated or not. At the beginning I create a dog with rabie and, in according to the fase (1 or 2) of the disease, it can spread the disease to other dogs with a probability. At the end the dog can die either for paralysis (if a probability is higher than 75%) or for other complications. Here's the code:
http://pastebin.com/esR75G3T
In the end you can see that a dog not dying for paralysis will die after some days (between 4 or 6). In other words when the days_infected are equal to end-life.
To check if everything is ok at the beginning I tried to set that NONE of the dog is vaccinated so everyone is supposed to get the disease. In fact when the dog is in phase 2 it will bite anyone. The problem is that if I delete the last line of the code, everything works and some dogs die of paralysis and the other remain alive. If I enable also the last line to let the other dogs die too, nothing works...no dog is infected. why?
This is not a problem with your code: this is a problem with the dynamics of your model. What's happening is that your initial sick dog dies before actually infecting another dog. This is why removing the if (days_infected = end-life) [die] "fixes" the problem.
When I tried your model with a huge population (e.g., 5000 people) so that encounters are more frequent, the infection does spread. You could also increase the probability of infection, or increase the duration of the "furious" phase, I guess.
Another unrelated suggestion, if I may: you should have distinct persons and dogs breeds. Trying to cram everything inside regular turtles makes your code much more complicated than it should be. The way I would approach this would be to create a link from the person to her dog, and then use tie so that the dog is automatically moved when you move the person.
Edit:
OK, here is a version of your code slightly modified to use breeds:

end
to-report has-dog? ; person reporter
report any? out-link-neighbors
end
to-report my-owner ; dog reporter

end
Not only does it simplify some expressions (e.g., ask dogs with [ sick? ] instead of ask turtles with [ has_dog? and sick_dog? ]), it opens up all sorts of possibilities: a dog could run away from its owner, the owner could die without the dog dying, an owner could have two dogs, etc.
