die
The turtle or link dies.
if xcor > 20 [ die ]
;; all turtles with xcor greater than 20 die
ask links with [color = blue] [ die ]
;; all the blue links will die
A dead agent ceases to exist. The effects of this include:
- The agent will not execute any further code. So if you write
ask turtles [ die print "last words?" ], no last
words will be printed, because the turtles are already dead before
they have a chance to print anything.
- The agent will disappear from any agentsets it was in, reducing
the size of those agentsets by one.
- Any variable that was storing the agent will now instead have
nobody in it. So for example let x one-of turtles ask
x [ die ] print x prints nobody.
- If the dead agent was a turtle, every link connected to it also
dies.
- If the observer was watching or following the agent, the
observer's perspective resets, as if reset-perspective
had been run.
