Hello,

1. Use the StringMessage class
2. You could use :

While(true){
launchAgent(new MyAgent());
pause(100);
}

But maybe that what you want is not "launching" but activating the agents at a fixed rate. If so, please check out the simulation tutorial on the website

Indeed I want to implement a sample project that is description in below:
We have a train of cars that follow each movement .every car follows the car in front in speed and direction fields. this means each car at specified intervals send its speed and direction to previous car and car behind updates its speed and direction.
I want simulate but I have some problems:
1-    How can I launch a numbers of agent at specified intervals? (that means I can manage agents launching)
2-    How can I convert agent’s message to string for use it?

I am also happy to hear your suggestions.
Thank you so much…
