Maybe you could try to make a call, from the agent, to a method of the 
observer swarm (something like ImFinished from hello-world-v3, provided 
it's on the model swarm) and there you put the 
[getTopLevelActivity() terminate].

I made something like that and it's working.

Well, I am using batch mode and I have to do so. Moreover I want to
_terminate_ the whole simulation and not simply stop it. This means that I
cannot simply send setStateStopped to ControlPanel. 

After your suggestions I looked into the implementation of ControlPanel
and I discovered that 'setStateStopped' simply sends a stop message to the
topLevelActivity while the setStateQuit sends the 'well-known' terminate
message. I made some experiments during which I tried to send 'stop'
message or a 'send & terminate' combination to the top level activity, but
I've got ambiguous results. 

If I use the stop & terminate combination then I got the same result as
simply using terminate. If I use only the send message then the simulation
terminates if it's in batch mode but does nothing perceivable if it's in
GUI mode.

So, what to do next?

Yours,
