McGill Rocket Team's flight simulator

Basic code structure

1. run program on cmdline "python simulator.py"
2. simulator.py instantiates simulations from simulation.py
3. simulation.py instantiates Rocket object and models (eg. kinematic and atmospheric models)

Flow:     Simulator() <--(reads)  simulator.json
            |      \
            |       \        ... ( x simulation_runs)
            v        v
      Simulation()  Simulation()   ...
       /    |
      /     |
     v      v
Rocket()  Models: - KinematicModel() <--(reads)  kinematics.json
                  - AtmosphericModel() <--(reads)  atmospherics.json
                  - ...

Each of these classes reads JSON format config files. They look for default ones in the template_configs folder. If you want to use different config files, you can:

1. run the program with the simulator config file as a cmdline argument like "python simulator.py myConfig.json"
2. in the simulator config file that you decide to use, specify the other config files that you want. Eg. "simulation_models": {"kinematic":"myKinematics.json", "atmospheric":"myAtmospherics.json"}
