Resume the Competition from the middle

If a session is terminated before completion for any reason, have to restart the application and resume the competition from the next session.

In that case, first add the score of the session that ended illegally to HandymanScore.txt.
Then set isScoreFileUsed to true in HandymanConfig.json and run the application. The application will then read the scores from the HandymanScore.txt and resume the competition from the next session that ended illegally.

Playback of Robot Movements during the session

This section describes how to playback the robot's movements during the session so that you can check them later. Be aware this playback cannot fully reproduce collisions and changes to scores.

If you run the application with playbackType set to 1 in HandymanConfig.json, the robot's movements during the session will be exported to PlaybackXX.dat.
After that, set the playbackType to 2 and then run the application to read and play the robot's movements from Playback00.dat. There is no need to launch the ROS application during playback. Enter the session number (e.g. 01) and click the [Read File] button.
