It Walks! Step 9
You are ready to set your Sodacreature to life. Click on the construct drop down menu and then on simulate. Your SodaCreature should start to jig around and hopefully move along the screen, if haphazardly.
Try experimenting with the other settings ... using the sliders and drop-down menus to change the settings. Can you make the creature travel faster than your original?
You might like to try putting two triangles back to back - by setting muscles in different ways you make several different creatures that way. Experiment a bit. Then perhaps follow our step by step instructions to make a limping triangle.
You might want to continue your constructing career with building a racing 'amoeba', and there is a step-by-step tutorial on how to do this linked from the Sodarace front page.
