Ian,
It's a little difficult to get a clear idea of the context of your =
question. I'm guessing that "boxes" and "squares" are the same thing. =
I'm guessing that by "a new turtle" you mean a new turtleshape for the =
"s" turtle (which is not really the same as a new turtle). I'm guessing =
that all the "square" and "number" turtles are moving about randomly at =
the same time. I'm guessing that by "it's set pos" you mean that =
turtle's original position. I'm guessing that by "I want it..." you mean =
that you want only one of the two squares that have touched to return to =
its original position.
That's an awful lot of guessing. What say you try to clarify these =
things? It will make the chances of getting a useful answer a lot =
better.
