Programming code (I used Netlogo 3D Preview 5): [Muis-Scholte-Baseline-model.nlogo] “Save link as” probably works best.
This text file (input on voter positions) is also required to run the model: [NKO2006-xyz.txt]
For the guest lecture for seminar “Computersimulation von Kommunikationstheorien”: here is a more simple two-dimensional code (German Elections 2013) for “model tryout”. I used Netlogo 5.0.5. [Muis-model-tryout-FUBerlin]
