gis:create-turtles-inside-polygon-manual VectorFeature breed n property-mapping commands

Like create-turtles-inside-polygon, creates “n” different turtles within the given VectorFeature and populates their agent variables with values corresponding to the property values of the VectorFeature.

This primitive can be used to specify additional mappings between gis property names and NetLogo variable names. These mappings are specified as a list of lists of strings like so: [["property-name" "turtle-variable-name"] ["property-name" "turtle-variable-name"] (etc.)]

These manual mappings modify the automatic mapping process that takes place in the create-turtles-inside-polygon primitive, so you only need to specify the changes you want to make to the default mappings, and the rest of the mappings will be untouched.

See the create-turtles-from-points-manual entry for an example of how to override default mappings with manual ones.
