links-own

links-own var1 …

<link-breeds>-own var1 …

The links-own keyword, like the globals, breed, <breeds>-own, turtles-own, and patches-own keywords, can only be used at the beginning of a program, before any function definitions. It defines the variables belonging to each link.

If you specify a breed instead of “links”, only links of that breed have the listed variables. (More than one link breed may list the same variable.)

undirected-link-breed [sidewalks sidewalk]
directed-link-breed
[streets street]
links-own
[traffic] ;; applies to all breeds
sidewalks-own
[pedestrians]
streets-own
[cars bikes]
