Grow sugar

BehaviourComposer: ignore everything before this.

The environment grows sugar on each patch until its capacity is reached.

Begin micro-behaviour

Grow sugar

Begin NetLogo code:

do-every 1   [ask-every-patch       [let previous-sugar sugar-of-patch         set sugar-of-patch minimum (sugar-of-patch + the-sugar-growth-rate)                                    sugar-capacity-of-patch        set sugar-production-of-patch sugar-of-patch - previous-sugar]]

End NetLogo code

Related Micro-behaviours

This relies upon the micro-behaviours that define the capacity of each location to hold sugar and define the sugar growth rate.

How this works

It repeatedly adds the the-sugar-growth-rate to the sugar-of-patch of each patch until it reaches the maximum sugar-capacity-of-patch. It also records how much sugar has been produced on each patch in sugar-production-of-patch.
