I wanted to constantly move a turtle without setting the button to forever.

You don't need to use a "forever" button --that's just one way to get something to happen repeatedly in NetLogo. If you're feeling confused by the whole SETUP / GO button thing, then just write all of your video-creating code inside just ONE procedure, like this:

to make-video
  clear-all
  vid:start-recorder
  cro 5
  repeat 100 [
     ask turtles [
       forward 0.1
     ]
     vid:record-view
  ]
  vid:save-recording user-new-file
end

I don't know how to do that however for the video part of the file you can keep on clicking on the button as quick or as slow as you would like.

I think you can breed the single turtle to make it move the way you want without affecting other turtles. Moreover, you can put the turtle move into a repeat command to constantly move the turtle.

you can also use the breed command and just use the specific turtle you want that way!

make only the turtle animated in the go function. Setup other objects at the beginning
