RNetlogo and NetLogo 5.3 error

问题:

I have been using RNetLogo with NetLogo 5.2.1 without troubles. Now I am using NetLogo 5.3 and I get this error:

> library(RNetLogo)
> nl.path <- "/Applications/NetLogo 5.3/"
> NLStart(nl.path, gui = FALSE)

Any ideas about what the problem could be?

回答1:

Change your line nl.path <- "/Applications/NetLogo 5.3/" to nl.path <- "/Applications/NetLogo 5.3/app" NetLogo has changed its directory structure; the netlogo jar file is now in an 'app' subdirectory.

You may also need to check the environment variables that you set up as part of the RNetLogo installation.

For NetLogo version 5.3.1 the following works if you want to start NetLogo up in headless mode from R on a Mac:

First, before loading the RNetLogo library, execute

Sys.setenv(NOAWT=1)

Then, execute the following:

library(RNetLogo)
setwd("/Applications/NetLogo 5.3.1/Java")
nl.path <- getwd()
NLStart(nl.path, gui = FALSE)
