XML configuration files

SubSim uses a set of configuration files to set up the default simulation world.  These files are in XML format, so they are relatively easy to read, understand, and modify if necessary.  (Remember, it is a good idea to make a back-up copy before editing the XML files.)

Here is a list of the default XML files and a description of their usage:

• settings.xml - holds application settings, like paths, plugins.
• world/defaultworld.xml - the default world environment.
• robots/mako/mako.xml - a model of the Mako AUV built at the University of Western Australia.
• examples/high/wallfollowing/wallfollowing.sub - holds all startup settings for a simulation... objects, objectpositions, pluginsettings and the worldfile
