Usage​

Turns to face the agent specified.

Syntax​

Inputs in this block:

  • A block which specifies another agent in The World

Example​

The elephants face toward the nearest patch of grass within their sensing radius and walk towards it. This behavior is enabled by the nearest block, which identifies the closest agent of a specified breed. This may model a hungry elephant more accurately than a basic wiggle walk since elephants likely walk towards food.

The Face Towards block is commonly used with detection blocks like "nearest" to create intelligent movement patterns where agents orient themselves toward targets.
