above ground/below ground

While dragging an ant their trail will still appear, but not as a solid line.

It is really hard for me to drop ants when moving.

in progress; ant can only see things to the east, though...

I saw this happen but can't reproduce it. Keeping this here until we know more.

for Grim Reaper ant script: https://gist.github.com/jywarren/1117ac2391581f9a19b5

Should it accept a function to execute on any object? like:

isNearObject(10, function(object) {

  // simplify this:
  if (object.instanceOf(Antfarm.Ant) doSomething();

});

or, we could do something like an onTouch handler for touching another ant.

• encode each object position on a 10x lower res grid, in objects like below
• clear prox grid each turn
• have ants, on run, file new locations on the grid
• check grid for neighbors and trigger onTouch events
• provide ant.neighbors() => [] methods, which also accept a function like forEach()

field.proximityGrid = {
  '0x0': [],
  '1x0': [],
  // ...
}

:-(

maybe we should fork ECMAScript to something called AntScript?

every(30, function() {
  // do stuff
});

OR

doThing = function() {
  // do stuff
}

every(30, doThing);

not sure why

which drops by 1 every frame

revert to ant.blabla syntax
