Okay, here are the problems I am having. scheduleImmediateRepast method

is deprecated in my version of Mason. Frame.show() is deprecated as

well, not sure that matters as I guess the pack method takes care of

that now. The chart never gets initialized in my init method for some

reason. When the start method is called, chart is null.

Hmmm, there are *no* deprecated methods in the MASON charting code.   

addSeries is correct, so I'm confused.



The init(...) method will be called once, when the GUI for your

simulation is being fired up (more specifically, when the Console has

been created).  It's *definitely* being called -- it's a very important

method!  Are you perhaps returning from this method before you get to

the chart code?  Or have you built an init(...) method somewhere else?

It's the method in your GUIState subclass.



To double-check, I cut-and-pasted from the HowTo code into sim/app/ 

antsforage/AntsForageWithUI.java to try it out, and it works nicely.   

Here's some code for you to double-check against.
