Population Limit

My computer keeps crashing when I have too many agents. How do I limit how many agents there are?

Solution: 

There are two ways to limit your population. If you only want to limit a particular breed (or you have only one breed), you can use this code:


This means that only if there are less than 500 plankton will they reproduce.
The second way can be used to limit a population across breeds by setting a global counter that keeps track of all the agents in the world, and a global threshold that allows none of the agents to reproduce if the threshold is reached.
