Summary

This files is used to create maps and move lists for the sonar simulator and particles.

Information

Clicking on the canvas once will set the start point of a line. Clicking again will create a line between the two points. Clicking the move list button will allow you to define a move list in a similar way. When this button has been selected, then the first click sets the location of the move point, and the second will set its heading. Files can be saved or loaded with the relevant buttons. At the current time, scale is not automatically added to the map file, so that must be done manually. It may also be necessary to remove a trailing space from the end of move files.

Bugs

The current calculation of heading seems to provide an incorrect value in some quadrants (top right and bottom left) due to an error in the method of calculation, so you should not expect the headings at each point to reflect the ones you entered. This does not really cause any problems in the simulation.

Improvements

Add support for editing files, make it easier to see the lines you are drawing.
