WHAT IS IT?

This demo shows how to use the mouse-down?, mouse-xcor, and mouse-ycor reporters to make a model that the user can interact with using the mouse. It also demonstrates the difference between using patches and turtles to achieve a desired effect.

NETLOGO FEATURES

If you look at this model's settings (by clicking the SETTINGS button in the main toolbar), you will notice that it uses a "Frame Rate" of 1000, which is much higher than the default value of 30. This ensures that drawing happens as fast as possible. See the NetLogo Programming Guide for more information on frame rate and view updates in general.
