OK, hope this isn't too confusing. I want a turtle to react to
touching another turtle based on one of the second turtle's state
variables. I wrote it like this...

if (tturtle, species) = "parrotfish [ setenergy energy + 30 remove 
:touchedturtle]

I get a "don't know how to tturtle" error. The big question is,
how does one turtle determine the value of a state variable in
another turtle.. or can they?


Thanks!
