Hi,
I am using netlogo 6.4 on my Mac (Sonoma 14.6.1 and silicon chip) since I wanted to try the latest version. When I run the test-1-2 in the "Agentset Efficiency" Model, I get the results like this:

observer> show test-1-2
observer: [3.583 3.464]

The results stay consistent. How is this possible?

Thank you for the support.

Hmm, i get similar results on PC. [3.529 3.517]. Maybe some optimizations were added ?

I actually still get the same behavior when running this on my windows machine with 6.0.4

Ah in the info tab for that model it says you wont see a big difference since much of the time is taken with the graphics. Untick "view updates" on the toolbar and you should see a dramatic difference!

There's a tutorial video in unit 4 that shows step by step how to do it. Go to my progress tab, click on the assignment and the submissions will show up one by one.

When I enter the code from the video in the command center, I get an error on the question mark after 'ask':

let speed-list sort-on [ speed ] turtles let new-size 1 foreach speed-list [ ask ? [ set size new-size set new-size new-size + 1 ] ]
ERROR: Nothing named ? has been defined.

I am not managing to fix the code to get the cars to be sized up based on their speed. Does anybody know how to adapt the code for it to work?

Thanks!
