NetLogo scoring system for distance travelled - netlogo

I have a problem with my NetLogo scoring system. When a turtle goes over three square blocks I cannot get it to show the increments on my score monitor. Could someone please help?
My code so far:
breed [ defaults default ]
defaults-own [ new-heading ]
breed [squares1 square]
breed [squares2 square]
breed [squares3 square]
globals [

to setup-row [row colour segments]
foreach segments
[
if pycor = row * row-patches-width and
(pxcor >= col-patches-width * (item 0 ?)) and (pxcor <= col-patches-width * (item 1 ?))
[set pcolor colour]
]
end
to setup-col [col colour segments]
foreach segments
[
if pxcor = col * col-patches-width and
(pycor >= row-patches-width * (item 0 ?)) and (pycor <= row-patches-width * (item 1 ?))
[set pcolor colour]

end

end

ask defaults [ lt 90 ]
end

To determine if there is a square1 in the same patch as a default you can do
ask defaults [ if (any? squares1-here) [...thenpart....][..elsepart...]]
if you want determine if there is a square1 within a distance of 5 of the default then use
ask defaults [if (any? squares1 in-radius 5) [....]]
I also note that your lines
breed [squares1 square]
breed [squares2 square]
breed [squares3 square]
are wrong. You cannot re-use 'square'. It should be
breed [squares1 square1]
breed [squares2 square2]
breed [squares3 square3]

Rules of use of chooser in Netlogo Model

I am writing a model and want to add a button of chooser to assess alternative management options. Model was working fine as some variables graphs disappeared as I have added chooser for around all of turtles. I have also tried changing parameters from Turtle-own to global and vice versa and not rectified the error. I couldn't figure out the issus. Problem arise when i add chooser in irrigate procedure. Codes are bit longer, please bear with me. I will be grateful for the solution. Please help me to get out of difficult situation.
I have also shared before and after image of interface.
Before
and after
Thanks

The plots are working, it's just that they are showing 0. My best guess is that the text you have inside the chooser for the options is different than the text you are testing in your if statement, so the if statement is always false.
Try something like this:
ifelse water-use-mangement = "Business as usual"
[ ; all your irrigation code that you already have
]
[ print "ERROR: Management case not found"
]
This will print an error message if the text doesn't match.

expected input to be a number but got the TRUE/FALSE true instead

I want to write an evacuation with leader code in net-logo but i have this error (AND expected input to be a TRUE/FALSE but got the number 0 instead.)the error came from function (follow_leader). my project is that i evacuate an environment and evacuate it with the nearest leader from the crowd . the code is not perfect that because iam knew to netlogo .

In the future, please only provide relevant code. For NetLogo, that is usually the procedure that throws the error (or doesn't work correctly etc) and whichever procedure calls it.
In your case, this is the procedure you mentioned:
to follow_leader
let nearby-leaders turtles with [is-leader? and distance myself < 10]
if any? nearby-leaders[
face min-one-of nearby-leaders [distance myself]
fd 0.5]
end
So the and that is throwing the error must be [is-leader? and distance myself < 10] (also, please state which line if you know it). My guess would be that you haven't initialised the variable is-leader? so it is 0 (the default value) instead of either true or false.
If this is the problem, wherever you creates turtles, initialise with set is-leader? false

How to make turtles move around patches with specific rules?

I am new to Netlogo, and have some questions. That would be great if you could help me.
I would like to create some fruit flies moving around a tree that is made up by green patches. Fruit flies are attracted to the tree. They will turn back to the tree if fruit flies move away certain distance (such as 5 grids) from the tree.
In the beginning, they will not stop on the green patches because they have enough energy. As time passed, they will loss their energy. They will find the closest green patch, and stay on it for certain time once their energy reaches 0. They gain energy after that, and they only can do short hops from the bottom branch to the top one (3 hops). Flies will move back to the bottom branch when they are on the top part of tree. I think I need to do a WHILE loop, but I have no idea how to do that. Please look at my codes.

I am sorry if you are confused by my codes. I appreciate your help. Thanks.

From your description, I think you almost certainly don't want a while loop. In a NetLogo model's go procedure, you're only specifying what happens in a single tick. So you would only use while if need it to express something that happens all in a single instant, not a process that unfolds over multiple ticks.
(Agree with Frank this is too much code to post to have a good chance of getting help. It would take quite a while for me to read and study this much code, let alone try to help you with it. In this answer I've tried to extract and address a single aspect.)

NetLogo: Error in avoiding walls and closed gates

I have this code in which turtles are suppose to change direction when they encounter walls and closed gates.
It is okay at the beginning but then it will give this message.
OF expected input to be a turtle agentset or patch agentset or turtle or patch but got NOBODY instead.

Does your model have wrapping at the world edges turned off in one or both directions?
If so, then your code has to handle the possibility that sometimes this patch:
patch-at-heading-and-distance 0 1
won't exist, if the turtle is near a world edge. If that happens, then patch-at-heading-at-distance will return nobody, and when you try and do:
[pcolor] of patch-at-heading-and-distance 0 1 = black
you get the error, because no pcolor can be retrieved from a nonexistent patch.
The typical way to code around this is to do something like:
let target patch-at-heading-and-distance 0 1
if is-patch? target and ...
Finally, I wonder whether you really mean patch-at-heading-and-distance 0 1. It's equivalent to patch-at 0 1, which refers to the patch north of the turtle; not sure why you'd want that. If you want to test the patch ahead of the turtle (the patch the turtle will land in if it uses fd), use patch-ahead.

How to let some of the turtles move again?

In this model all it does is turtle will find a seat(red patch for available and yellow for taken). And once the seats are all occupied it all will stop.
Now how to make some of the turtles move again? Like if it is seated it will move again and try go another place or it will go out.

Just the way you asked non-seated turtles by ask ... with [Seated? = 0] you can ask others by ask ... with [Seated? = 1]
However, I will suspect that they will go in a loop, because they are close to the bench ans bench is empty, so as soon as they stand up they will sit on the same spot again. Maybe you can have a memory [] which stores last few moves and if there is a seated position, say in last 10 items it will choose not to sit. I am not sure what are your requirements, this is just an example.
ask adults with [seated? = 1]
[
; Stand up set seated? = 0
; go around
]
ask kids with [seated? = 1]
[
; Stand up set seated? = 0
; go around
]
ask oldies with [seated? = 1]
[
; Stand up set seated? = 0
; go around
]
Update:
I have changed your code, its not much different from your code, but it has memory function to make sure turtles move around after leaving a bench and are not going to sit on same bench again and to some degree avoid walls (you need to improve the avoiding since step size is different for each agent):
