Action Definitions
As seen in the anatomy of a behavior page, the action definition panel describes what actually executes when the behavior is run. All of the actions, operators, and object references can be dragged out of the input browser and dropped into the action definition panel.
The UI is completely drag and drop. Actions, objects, attributes, and functions are presented in a navigator and dragged into the behavior editor. For example, the following sets the orientation of the active object to zero:

If I want to change the right-hand side from “0″ to some other value, say a copy of another object’s attribute, I simply drag in that attribute:
1. Initially, I can type in a value for orientation.
2.Instead, I’m dragging over the circle’s orientation attribute.
3. Now my orientation is set equal to the circle’s orientation.
But what if I want to add something to the right-hand side? Select a math function from the logic browser by clicking the Math tab and simply drag it onto the value:
:
Dragging the plus function and drop on spaceship’s orientation will automatically pre-populate the first element of the plus statement with whatever was underneath it.
The comprehensive set of mathematical functions allows any equation to be created.
The logic for boolean operations is similar. Conditional statements are formed by dragging over logic blocks Again, a comprehensive set of boolean operations allow creation of arbitrary logic.
